## What is Japan Etiquette?

Travelling to Japan and worried about getting it wrong?

Japan runs on unwritten rules. Rinse before you soak. Don't stick your chopsticks upright. Keep your voice down on the train. Nobody explains them to visitors — until now.

Omotenashi Guide is a plain-English field guide to Japanese etiquette, written for travellers who want to be a good guest rather than a nervous one.

WHAT'S INSIDE

• 62 etiquette rules across 8 everyday situations — onsen and public baths, dining, trains and transport, ryokan and hotels, streets and public space, shopping, temples and shrines, and talking with people
• Every rule broken down into a clear Do and Don't list, so you know exactly what to do in the moment
• A local's tip on each rule — the small context that guidebooks leave out
• A difficulty rating, so you can see which customs trip up visitors most

TEST YOURSELF

• 52 quiz questions drawn from the full guide
• Earn a rank from Heimin to Shogun, and share your result card with the friends you're travelling with
• Every answer comes with an explanation, so the quiz teaches rather than just scores

BEFORE YOU GO

• Scene-based checklists for the situations that cause the most anxiety — your first onsen, your first ryokan stay, your first temple visit
• Save any rule to Favourites and pull it up outside the restaurant

BUILT FOR TRAVEL

• Works completely offline — no signal needed on the train or in the mountains
• Four languages: English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Korean
• No account, no sign-up, no tracking

Japanese hospitality has a name: omotenashi. It goes both ways. Arrive knowing how to receive it.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-09-02

Share a quiz result. The result card now carries a link back, so whoever you send it to can try the same questions instead of just seeing your score.

The app now declares all four of the languages it was already written in. Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Korean are picked up from your device automatically, rather than everyone landing in English.

Also in this version: icons that stay sharp on every device, corrected tab labels, and a quiz result screen that no longer clips on smaller phones.

### 1.0 — 2026-06-23

No release notes.
