Don't download

Not worth the money for this

Needs Improvement

The selection of kanji is great, however it doesn’t help with memory retention as there are no ways to practice without looking at the kanji. If there were programs where you can practice without looking at the kanji and then check to see if it is correct it would be great.

Do not download.

Terrible. Nearly all the instructions are in Japanese. The ones in English are nearly unintelligible. If that's not enough, nothing worked -- no Japanese character appeared to copy. Waste of money -- and I want my money back!! And, the developer's web site is invalid -- does not work. And the support page is all in Japanese. How does Apple let this rubbish through?!
