Good App but long lasting bugs
Loved the app at first, due to how unique it was compared to other Japanese learning apps, but unfortunately new updates or features take months or even years to be updated or fixed. It’s not worth the subscription for me in the state it is now but hopeful that one day it will be improved.
Amazing so far!
I don’t have a ton to say other than the reader is a phenomenal tool. I adore the color coding, and I really love the flashcard integration.
I mainly use Anki but I’m having a lot of fun reviewing cards in both apps. I just keep them separate and figure there will be overlap here and there. But that’s just helping to reinforce my vocabulary anyway.
I grabbed the 1 year subscription and I feel like there’s a lot of value to be had here. I am massively looking forward to the manga support update, and I will be recommending this app to my friends (we’re planning a group trip to Japan in a couple of years!)

Abandoned?
The app is useful but sometimes bugs out. no updates in a year?
Very helpful for Japanese reading
Thank you for creating such a helpful app. I use it to read Japanese EPUB books, and it has been a great support in my Japanese learning journey.
I really appreciate having an iOS app that makes it easy to read Japanese books and news articles. One issue I’ve noticed is that on my iPad, the app sometimes freezes and becomes unresponsive.
I also understand that adding flashcards to Anki is limited to subscribers. While I understand the reason for that, I wish free users could have at list for adding new words.

Awesome app with some nitpicks
This is a super handy app for Japanese lookups! It even works on any web page so you can read whatever you want. That being said, my first impression of the app was kind of soured by the fact that I was instantly greeted with a subscription popup before I even had the chance to try anything. Also I’m not sure if there is a setting somewhere I’ve missed, but is it possible to view alternate definitions instead of whatever gets parsed first? I find this can be a problem with certain verb forms, like 変わってる gets parsed as “to be unusual” rather than a form of 変わる. Anyhow, really like the app and keep up the good work!
