## What is 日檢喵 JLPT?

JapanCat JLPT is designed for independent Japanese learners. It helps you build vocabulary, grammar, listening, and test skills from N5 to N1.

Start with kana, N5 fundamentals, or the JLPT level you are preparing for. Based on your progress, the app organizes daily tasks, flashcard review, quizzes, and mistake review. Explanations can be switched between Traditional Chinese and English, with Japanese readings, example sentences, and audio for both exam preparation and steady everyday study.

Main features:
• JLPT N5-N1 vocabulary study
• Japanese example sentences with Traditional Chinese or English explanations
• Word and sentence audio for listening and pronunciation practice
• Grammar, sentence patterns, and verb conjugations
• Swipe cards with honest familiarity feedback
• Mixed quizzes, mistake review, and daily tasks
• Listening practice and mock-exam preparation
• Study progress, favorites, and review history
• Practical themes for shopping, travel, dining, daily life, health, and work
• Interactive short readings with color-coded word types, tap-to-view meanings, and audio
• Kana stroke demonstrations and tracing practice on a fixed canvas
• A 24-hour review forecast, personal study plans, and optional scheduled reminders
• A 12-week learning heatmap and progress summaries
• Optional Google or Apple sign-in for complete progress backup and entitlement restoration

JapanCat is built to move beyond memorizing isolated lists. It turns each day's practice into a clear flow that is easy to start and easier to continue. Choose a starting point, follow the daily recommendation, and build the vocabulary and reading foundation needed for JLPT study one step at a time.

JapanCat is a good fit if you:
• Are new to Japanese and want to begin with kana and N5 basics

• Want flashcards, quizzes, and mistake review to reinforce memory
