This one is great with helping you build up a stack of memory points by introducing one or two new ones at a time, so you can go away and come back without “starting over”. It remembers where you were when you stopped before. ### 5/5 — Espetacular *2021-07-01* Melhor dinheiro investido da minha vida, parabéns ao criador. Era tudo que eu procurava e ainda mais ### 5/5 — Melhor app de estudo *2021-05-11* Aprendi a ler MUITA coisa com ele super recomendo! ### 5/5 — Excelente *2021-03-28, version 1.1.0* Excelente ### 5/5 — Excelente *2021-02-24, version 1.0.8* Si pudiera dar más de cinco estrellas, se las daría. Es realmente estupenda. Mis respetos a esta app, más porque es gratuita. ### 5/5 — um dos melhores pra iniciantes!!! *2021-02-16, version 1.0.8* AMO ESSE APP ### 5/5 — Amei muito mesmo! *2020-12-31* 5 estrelas ### 5/5 — Better than most *2020-11-28* This is better than most apps in the way that it actually teaches you words along with kana and kanji all for free! Already recommended it to my family and friends! ### 4/5 — Bom d+ *2020-11-25* O app e muito bom só faltou se em pt chega uma parte que quem só tem o conhecimento básico no inglês não consegue prosseguir ## Frequently asked questions about JClass ### What does JClass: Learn Japanese do?
