Needs update
App needs to be updated. The speak feature to hear the pronunciation of kanji no longer works.
Great tool
It helps me with my JLPT prep very well, but it feels strange that there is no vocabulary test/quiz like there is for the kanjis.
Does not have pronounciation
I love this app. But I wish it had the option of listening to how to pronounce the Kanji as well as the words / sentences that Kanji is used for. Because it does not have this VERY important feature I find it lacking.
Works as advertised
I finished going through literally every kanji the app has to offer (about 2400 of the most common ones) about 3 days ago. Took about 1 year and 3 months of constantly, every day learning 5-12 kanji a day (as I kept getting further ahead I kept increasing daily new kanji) and reviewing already seen kanji using the app’s spaced repetition system. I may have my issues with the app that are more on the technical side, but I have to say this app definitely accomplishes what it advertises. Now I definitely feel a lot more confident when reading. Here are some of the things I did which helped me get learn using this app….While this app worked, I did not leave the teaching alone to it…. 1. Disable writing in the settings of the app. The stroke order may be correct in earlier levels (N5-N2)….when you get to N1 and highschool and 2010 Jouyou most of the kanji have the wrong stroke order. 2. The app’s spaced repetition is not enough. Every time before you go through using the app’s spaced rep system review the first 2 groups in the Kanji To Study / All trained kanji section. I suggest that while reviewing you write the kanji either in the air or on a surface with your finger…You might seem crazy to other people but it does help a lot 3. Buy a Japanese Character Writing Practice Book (you can type it in just like that on Amazon) and get the Anki app (flash cards app). Every time you go through new kanji, write it in anki (they have a windows and mac app as well (front of the card is the meaning and all pronunciations, back is the picture of the kanji…which you can get from jisho.org)…..in groups of 100 kanji, put in tags/folders based off of the level of the iKanji app as well as a group that encompasses all kanji you have added so far (a global group). Every time you go through a brand new kanji for that day, write it through a vertical line of the practice book (basically writing the kanji 20 times) to hopefully get it in your short term memory. Then once you go through all new kanji in the ikanji app, practice 20-50 kanji (I recommend 50) in Anki writing in the practice book. (Using the global group for review) 4. Space yourself out appropriately. Don’t assume you have to review all the kanji the app is telling you to review for that day…I made that mistake and basically by the time I got to the last groups I would be reviewing kanji for basically 6-8 hours every day…..and thats not counting my reading light novels time or watching raw japanese content for listening practice. Space yourself out, with something you’re comfortable with 5. When reviewing using the app’s spaced rep system, be sure to go through each one of the groups and not through the kanji to study section as there is a bug with the kanji to study section where it does not show you all kanji you have yet to review for that day until later in the day…. Also…there is a nice easter egg if you continuously tap on the fox on the top right of the app, it can get mad at you lol Anyways, these steps I mentioned are what worked for me….not going to necesarilly work for everyone else….The app is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but if you can get around the technical issues (specially because this app is no longer supported by the dev), this is an awesome app.
