Super Kanji Lern App

Decent but Needs Significant Improvement
When I moved to Japan and downloaded it, the app seemed very different from what I had used. The readings and meanings of words had changed (some improved, but the original ones, such as for 漢 and 社 were also helpful). Also, the application is very slow/heavy. After having used it for over 1 year, I have compiled a list of FIVE THINGS that need urgent improvement (in order of priority) (if these were implemented. I would rate the app 5 stars).
FIRST (MOST IMPORTANT), new lessons need to be added each week or at a minimum each month. Specifically, I mean adding new Kanji to the app and adding new writing lessons (many writing lessons are missing from N1 and are only like flashcards, which defeats the whole purpose of using this app over something like WaniKani).
SECOND, the definitions and readings for Kanji keep changing. It is fine to add additional meanings and readings, but the other meanings (unless clearly wrong) should stay. Also, I would appreciate it if the definitions and readings from over 5 years ago (which I mentioned above) were added back.
THIRD, verbs should indicate whether they are -う verbs or -る verbs so that we know how to conjugate them.
FOURTH, non-verbs should indicate whether they are nouns, い-adjectives, or な-adjectives, or something else. The reason that this change is necessary is because I do not know, for example, whether to use の or な when connecting some words to each other, nor do I know how to conjugate them.
FIFTH, in connection with the first point, the Kanji and vocabulary need to go beyond whatever is in the JPLT. I was surprised that some very standard/daily-used Kanji were not listed in the app. I can not remember which one in particular sparked this comment, but one was so standard and used every day in my work that I expected it to be in this app; however, it was not.
Great, but some sensitive kanji when writing
Edit: The Apple pen sometimes doesn’t work properly when writing.
Good but could be better
Updated option to answer on your own without selecting multiple choice is good.
Wish: Example sentences and other ways of reading each kanji should be available in the “review” mode and not just in the initial learning mode.
Response from developer
Thanks for this feedback. If you have the ‘Use example sentences’ turned on in the settings menu it will use the sentences in the review mode. Please let me know if there’s any issues with that at support@lulilanguages.com

Best way to learn kanjis
It is a paid app, but the price is comparable to what you would spend on a good textbook, and in my experience, it’s absolutely worth it.
It guided me all the way from N5 to N2 in just 1.5 years, and it has become one of the most useful tools in my Japanese-learning journey.
The only real downside is that some of the English translations aren’t quite accurate, and a few words are missing. For example, 動労 is not included.
Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone serious about learning Japanese kanji.
Why money

Na ja
Ich habe daher den Eindruck, dass die Preise für verschiedene Nutzer unterschiedlich angezeigt werden. Das gefällt mir überhaupt nicht.
Die App selbst ist praktisch. Ich habe die kostenlosen Wörter ausprobiert und fand die App von der Bedienung her sehr angenehm.
Good but needs work
Cons: Currently only up to start of N3 kanji but noticed there appears to be quite a few words for certain kanji missing the more I go along. E.g. no 試験 (exam), 失礼(discourtesy/excuse me) 葉っぱ (leaf), 様 (honorific suffix), 了解 (understood) etc etc
Many of them are very frequently used in day to day Japanese so it’s strange they’re missing.
Some of the English meanings given to certain kanji are too similar to each other and easy to mess up when asked to guess the Japanese hiragana answer from the English meaning e.g. “research, study” for 究 (which isn’t used standalone anyway as far as I know) and then “research” for 研究. In these instances the English description could probably stand to be a bit more clear like “research (not standalone)”, similar to how it shows up under the kanji.
