User reviews

Fantastic app

I really appreciate being able to repetitively drill in several different ways, including having audio prompts. not only does it include kanji, but also kana, grammar points, vocabulary words, and I’m able to create my own decks. It’s all here.

Best Japanese Learning app

Tried then subscribed lifetime. This is probably one of the very few best app to learn Japanese from beginner to very advanced. It covers from N5 to N1 without literally thousands of examples and speaking voices. It covers not only kana but also kanji. It has many popular book references to pick up and learn. I love this app and will be my go to in learning Japanese for years to come.
