## What is KanjiBrush?

Practice Japanese kanji by writing them.

Trace with a guide, then write from memory and check stroke order, direction and shape. Start with 80 Grade 1 kanji free. Premium opens the remaining characters in the 1,257-kanji library.

A FOCUSED FIRST ROUND
Start with three characters. Continue with eight-character rounds as you build a writing routine.

REVIEW YOUR RECALL
Return to scheduled reviews that begin with a meaning prompt and a blank canvas. Guided tracing and unaided writing are recorded separately. Successful recall on later reviews builds your progress.

YOUR OWN KANJI SETS
Choose characters from your available content to follow a class, reading or personal study goal. Your sets, favorites and study history stay on your device.

OFFLINE WRITING GUIDES
Animated stroke-order guides and component breakdowns are bundled with the app. Use flashcards and quizzes to connect characters with meanings and readings. Hear Japanese readings using your device's text-to-speech voices.

FREE & PREMIUM
Grade 1 includes 80 free kanji. Optional monthly and annual Premium subscriptions unlock the rest of the library. Current regional pricing is shown before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple account. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in your App Store account settings. Restore Purchases is available in the app.
