### 4/5 — Useful but needs improvement

*2026-06-03*

Overall I like the app for the widget feature. Problem is there are a lot of mistakes, exemple sentences not matching the presented word for example. Also I can’t find how to remove words from a custom list. By far the first improvement to the app should be the voice which is horrible.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-03-04*

The app is great because it allows easy and free (!) customization for your widget and various free topics to learn Japanese daily words while they rotate hourly on your screen. I looked through many apps and I find this one the best right now. My suggestion would be only to keep adding the free topics, maybe small proverbs, also options for customization such as widget transparency, at least a couple of free variations of fonts would be nice too. Thank you and please keep it up!

### 5/5 — Very very helpful to learn nihingo

*2025-06-02*

Thank you very much to the creator of Langwid for all the free and payable courses ✍️👋🙏🏻

### 5/5 — Helpful for everyday learning

*2025-03-31*

Widget tool is extremely useful

### 2/5 — Can’t get subscription to work

*2025-03-09*

There is an issue where you can’t set up a subscription or pay. Not sure if it’s an Apple issue or a app issue either way it won’t work

### 5/5 — Desember is wrong, December is right

*2024-12-08*

The app is nice, useful for JLPT learning.
Have tests and small explanations. 
Please add more examples on grammar, and ask someone native to check the English words. Hope someone native checked the Japanese words too.

### 4/5 — Helpful with occasional glitches

*2023-10-13*

I use this app everyday and I know it helps me (slowly) learn Japanese. The problems are the regular glitches. For example it doesn’t seem well designed for an iPhone; often the follow up sentence using the word disappears off the bottom of the screen. Also 2 or 3 times a week there is no audio when you click the speaker icon. It’s a shame because the idea of the app itself is very good and it would be even better (5 stars) if they could fix these issues.

**Developer response:** Thank you, please help sharing the app, wish you master Japanese soon.

### 5/5 — The Lock Screen widget is the best!!!!

*2023-06-13*

The widget on my Lock Screen is super helpful for learning vocabulary passively. I have been noticing that my vocabulary has been expanding at a slow rate but steadily which really works for me!!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you, please help sharing the app, wish you master Japanese soon.

### 1/5 — doesn’t offer widgets

*2023-03-12*

the widgets aren’t there. I’ve turned my phone on and off but the widgets don’t work. I go to add them but they don’t show up in the list of apps that offer widgets

**Developer response:** Hi, please open app before adding widget

### 3/5 — Just Okay app

*2023-02-25*

I would go for premium version but there are so many mistakes 😢😤

**Developer response:** Hi, we appreciate your comment and will try to improve app content.
Thank you
