## What is Kana Typing?

Build familiarity with katakana by typing its romaji. Kana Typing brings practice, pronunciation, review, and progress tracking together on iPhone and iPad.

START WITH THE BASICS
Choose from four word-bank levels: basic kana, combinations, loanwords, and Japanese words. Practice the material that matches your current level.

GET FEEDBACK AS YOU TYPE
See judging feedback and hints while entering your answer. Adjust romaji conventions and long-vowel rules to suit your learning habits. Japanese pronunciation uses the system's speech synthesis.

REVISIT WHAT NEEDS PRACTICE
Use sequential, random, or timed sessions, and return to items you answered incorrectly. Keep working on unfamiliar kana and easily confused spellings.

FOLLOW YOUR PROGRESS
Review accuracy, typing speed, practice trends, and kana mastery. Practice records, statistics, and settings stay on your device.

START WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT
No registration or login is needed. This version has no ads, in-app purchases, or subscriptions. Word banks are included in the app, and core practice works offline. Pronunciation availability depends on system voice resources.

Questions or a word-bank correction? Contact the developer through the support page.
