No longer a good option for learning.
This WAS a good app two years ago when I was in Japan. I was able to search for and save certain phrases to a list, have it say them to me, hear and practice the pronunciation and use it when I was in Japan.
I redownloaded it, to see how it was these days before recommending it to a friend for her upcoming travels. The speech function no longer works making the app somewhat useless for her as a non Japanese speaking person hoping to learn to pronounce a few key phrases before travel. Wouldn’t recommend to friends with its current functionality issues.

Almost a decade
I’ve had this app for probably close to a decade and its still my go to. It’s my trusty true dictionary
Good
Good but don’t go on parts of speech and then nouns
Great App! Just Needs Some Updates
I use this app every day as I learn Japanese. The “Speak”function that provides pronunciation of words is great, however, it only works intermittently. It’s not possible to hear the pronunciation of multiple words unless the app is closed then reopened.
Are there any plans to update the app? If so, please update this function. Thanks, D

1番大好きなアプリ
This app is so good. I use it all the time. It has been a great resource when I am communicating with my Japanese friends.
Very helpful!
i think it’s a really good app to practice your writing and memorization!!! one of my favorites!!
This app is AWESOME!!!
I rarely write reviews, but this app is an absolute gem!!! I’m able to learn about various words that I pick up throughout my journey. I’m able to see the components of Kanji, the On + Kunyomi readings of Kanji, and the stroke order!! The stroke order feature is especially useful since I’m a visual learner. I’ve been able to memorize many Kanjis thanks to that feature alone! It offers all of these cool features without pesky ads or a subscription. Not that I’d be mad at a subscription because the developers have to make money and improve the app somehow. But the fact that the developers prioritize users actually learning and grasping content without being super greedy is very admirable to me.
To anyone who wants to start learning Japanese and is looking for a place to start, this is your app! It’s also great for ppl who’ve been studying for a long time (like myself). 😊👍🏽
本当にありがとうございます！💗🙏🏽

Best Japanese dictionary EVER
I have been using this app for around 12 years and nothing else can compare to it. It's such a vital part of my everyday life and I could not imagine trying to learn Japanese without it. It's an absolute MUST get for anybody that is studying the language, and I urge all my friends who are just getting into learning Japanese to get this app. I absolutely cannot recommend it enough.

This is still really good, even if older!
Language doesn’t really change much in 6 years, which, I’m writing this review 6 years after the last update to this app.
This app experience is better than Duolingo. Try it.

Simple but effective
This is a nice resource for preparing for the N5 test. It is very straightforward and convenient.
Please Update!
This used to be my go-to app for Japanese. I loved all the features it had and I used lists for organizing words I had learned. Now the app won’t even load without crashing. Please update the app as I really loved it and I’m bummed I can’t use it anymore!
Japanese
I found this app very helpful when I want to look up words and the flash cards have really helped me learn kanji.
Fantastic App
One-station app for learning. Can be better if there is tone notation. And it needs an update anyway
Great Tool/Resource
I have been using this dictionary for years. These reference materials, multiple example sentences, and ability to make my own word lists to study is great.
ほんとうに便利！
I have been learning Japanese since 2022 and I downloaded this app and helped me memorize and learn new words each day which really gives my brain a workout. It’s also useful for learning to write and study JLPT levels. I’m currently in N4 almost N3 I think.
A hidden study gem
with all the study methods you have to pay for, this specifc study app is not only entirely free, but is one of the best tools I've been able to add to my studying tools. As someone who has jumped from study app to study app, this app has done wonders for my memorization of key components of japanese. NOTE: I'd still reccomend using other methods alongside this one, but don't underestimate this app, its heavily effective if used properly.

Best Kanji All I’ve Ever seen
This all has replaced almost all of my other Japanese learning resources. The Japanese people around me are blown away by what this one app can do. Most times, they even gripe that the information from this app is more thorough than any tool they ever had in school.
Really good, but no support provided and no way to export the vocab lists
This wonderful dictionary allows you to create your own list of vocab. You can’t, however, export the lists and the lists do not sync from one phone to another. I really don’t feel like re-entering hundreds of words per list, and keeping an old phone just to access the lists I made is somewhat quite cumbersome.

Speech function doesn’t work
Speech function just doesn’t work anymore. It used to sound robotic, but now, it gives a warning that it’ll sound robotic, but just doesn’t work; I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling again and it STILL doesn’t work. The other functions are great, but without the speech, it feels incomplete. I’ve contacted support and changed my live speech voice settings, and that didn’t help, so I can’t speak to if changing that improved the voice, because now I hear nothing.
