It erased everything!

I had been reading a novel, saving my words in the bookmarks/flashcards section. Today I realized that it purges the old saved words without telling you! So it only saves very few words with no warning. Hours and hours of work down the drain. Worst app ever!!!

It’s a good app but..

Ok so don’t get me wrong this app is the most amazing thing but I think it’s a little had to use but besides that good can you app a keyboard option ok that’s all bye

Can’t get the app to work

I purchased this app and it doesn’t work. Don’t buy it. I payed the 2.99 but the app stopped functioning.

Great dictionary

This app is definitely very helpful in assisting with learning Japanese, and was well worth the $2.99 charge for the pro version. My one complaint is that it very frequently forgets I’ve purchased it, and makes me click restore purchases before I can use the pro features. This is very annoying as I use this a lot and I hope something can be done to fix this issue, but it’s not a big enough problem for me to dock points on my review, still a very helpful app, would definitely recommend if you need a dictionary!

Inaccurate

This app gives the incorrect translation to words. I looked up 親切 but it gave me the translation for 不親切 instead.

No Romanji to enter in Japanese English dictionary.

There is no dictionary for Romanzi. Can you add Romanzi to make this Dictionary more useful.

Totemo Yoi!

Watashi no yona kono app son’nani!

Useless

Camera scan didn’t work at all

Great app

This app came in so handy while in Japan. This app and google translate together and you can get around

Those freaking adds

THE ADDS

OK Offline resource - but Capture feature doesn't work

Nice layout of menu, and fairly easy to navigate. Translator dictionary is good sized, and display of Asian characters has been very accurate (as I've been told). The pronunciation audio option is a great offline feature and also works well without delays. However, the crucial feature to scan characters with phone camera isn't working right. Mine is stuck on English, and is missing the "Other" button as shown in the help screen. It does immediately recognize Romanji (English) with a red targeting frame, but I really need it to see the Asian characters. Emailed developer quite a ago but no response. Would rate higher if that feature worked, otherwise it's just like similar offline dictionaries.

Wouldn't do anything

Tried to use the scan feature. Turned on the camera and tapped "capture", but nothing happened. Tried multiple times. So I gave up and deleted the app. :(

EXACTLY WHAT MY SON NEEDS

IVE BEEN WAITING ON AN APP THAT TEACHES JAPANESE FOR MY SON. THIS IS THEE ONE

Pronunciation in-app

I am very disappointed that I purchased the in-app for pronunciation and is not working!

Wish I could get a refund!

The ocr is just for English.

No option to translate Japanese

I guess I need a Japanese keyboard because I don't have the option of translating anything other than English.

terrible

trial is short. worst Japanese learning app out there. not entirely accurate either

Senior student

It might be a good program, with all the categories and choices. However, I am really turned off, after purchasing an app to have a multilayered sales pitch for added services interfere with me using the app from the beginning. When I buy a book, nobody tells me I can't open it until I spend more money.

Just awful...

Too much advertising, some translations are wrong... I really didn't like the app.

Intrusive adds destroy experience

The adds in this app are extremely intrusive and prevent the user from using the app. Pop up adds with video that can't be closed are unacceptable.
