### 3/5 — Recommended by my Japanese teacher :)

*2023-08-24*

Kana was the app my Japanese professor recommended to learn how to memorize hiragana. I use it like I do Duolingo as a supplement to my studies. It helps a lot with learning how to properly do the strokes as well as hearing the syllables. However, Dakudon and Katakana seem to be locked behind a paywall therefore I only give 4 stars. I am not advanced enough to take the in-app tests but I will do my best!!
