What I think

This app is fantastic and really a hidden gem, it may not be aesthetically pleasing but it is definitely amazing considering it’s free

FINALLY

I had to go through a dozen or more different apps before finding this one - which shows me the NO SH*T stroke order and doesn’t mess around with stupid quizzes and doesn’t mess around with making me trace exactly the way the computer does or failing me. Thank G*D, finally some normalcy.

Amazingly trash

Pretty bad app

Simple and Elegant

This app is wonderful! It has been so helpful in learning and practicing writing in Japanese.
I hope one day to see a feature that would allow the user to change the size of the characters so that they could practice writing at whichever size they feel comfortable.
I would also prefer and am happy to pay more for an app with no advertising.
