### 1/5 — Adverts, adverts and more adverts

*2018-03-31, version 7.0*

Don’t think I have ever used an app with so many intrusive adverts before. For example, go to settings and a 5 second advent appears. Go back and another 5 second advert appears. Have deleted and will not use again.

### 5/5 — Really good

*2017-08-27, version 6.0*

Really good to have an app like this as it seems difficult to find many places to find mock exams for the JLPT. Improvements to suggest would be for it to tell you analysis for how you did; so it would say if it thought you were ready for the exam or not or if you passed etc. Also the sections in JLPT exam are vocab and grammar as one and listening as another whereas this hive separate marks for vocab grammar and kanji. Would be good to reflect the exam as closely as possible. However still a great app I would recommend.

### 3/5 — Ok

*2017-07-19*

The levels don't match what they would have on a JLPT test.  I took the JLPT N5 and I was trying the N5 level grammar and vocabulary.  There was kanji on there that wouldn't even be on the N5 test.  And the questions I miss, it just tells you the right answer and moves directly to the next one.  It would help if it gave you time to review why you got it wrong.  Some of the words I don't know, so I can't find out the meaning of it doesn't let me go back and review.

### 2/5 — There are errors!

*2016-12-08*

This is a useful app at first BUT when there are errors it makes it impossible to learn from one's own mistakes.  It's not useful to learn incorrect grammar!
I would have given this 4 stars for being useful (5 stars if it were pretty and had reviews of my answers) but had to take it back to 2 stars because it really is NOT useful to be trying to learn from something that hasn't been proofread.
A review of quiz answers would really be beneficial.  Both for the learner and for the app developer, who needs to check all the questions and answers!

### 3/5 — Seems quite useful but crashes after like 20 test questions

*2016-09-23, version 3.0*

Tried it, seems the crashing bug is not rectified. N3 kanji test crashes at the same question after 演歌 word. Tried it twice , same problem. Seems like a good app. A little disappointed.

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2016-09-06*

Too bad...

### 1/5 — Revise for JLPT

*2015-09-28, version 3.0*

This would be a great app if I could use it!  I am over 65 and even with glasses I just cannot make out the kanji they are just too small on my iphone5 screen.  What a shame! And no setup to adjust font size.  Very disappointing.

### 4/5 — Nice

*2015-09-07*

It includes N5-N1 materials. The quiz setup works smoothly.

### 4/5 — N3 kanji

*2015-08-21, version 3.0*

In category of N3 kanji after approx. 20 question the app shuts down. Please fix it, I would like to end up the test and to get the result. Thank you

### 2/5 — App closes suddenly.

*2015-07-17*

It might be a good app if it could stay open.
