Really great Japanese Learning App

Kiku is a wonderful tool to learning the Japanese language! It's become one of my favourite language learning apps with so much potential for growth.

I’ve found it genuinely helpful for remembering vocabulary and learning Japanese characters, and the app itself is simple and easy to use.

The developer is also fantastic at communicating with users, listening to feedback, and actually implementing suggestions to improve the quality and usability of the app.

It’s clear there’s a lot of care going into Kiku Japanese, and I’m excited to see how it continues to develop.

Great way to learn

Really cool app I love the design and the explanations are top tier, it’s not just a dictionary definition, it’s well put. However the subtitles sometimes don’t line up, for instance if the person takes a break from talking the subtitles keep moving on which is a bit annoying, overall great app.
