Really wanted to give it a shot…
I love the core concept of this app but there are some deal-breakers that have stopped me from purchasing it. They’re simple enough to fix so I hope the developer responds:
1. Will I still get ads after I unlock the full app? If yes, bye bye. If no, why haven’t you mentioned it clearly?
2. How many words does the app have in its repertoire? I need to know the number of individual words I’ll be tested on and learn since the same kanji could be used in scores of words.
3. Why impose a compulsory time limit? I’m sure some people enjoy doing things under pressure but I find it distracting. Give us an unlimited time option. Language learning is not a competition, I don’t care for things like death matches or leaderboards but would love to test my knowledge without unnecessary distractions. The people who like those things will lose nothing if you remove the time limit for those who prefer a more relaxed learning environment.

иероглифы не соответствуют градации
Во вкладке иероглифов N3 много иероглифов из N2. Не хватает русского языка и просто отработки иероглифов не на время. А так, приложение супер!
words / sentences don’t always show up
I’ve had this app for a short time and already MANY words or sentences simply haven’t shown up during the practice sessions. I can’t practice if my question / prompt never shows up. This is even more unacceptable because this app is essentially a race against a computer. (One final, albeit petty, thought: kanji like 一、二、人、etc. shouldn’t be included in a race, because it’s quite literally impossible to process and react on the information faster than the computer in the case of such simple kanji.) Unfortunately, I would not recommend this app, as my expectations were much higher than the quality I experienced.

Great Drills
I got this app while studying for JLPTN4. My memory for writing kanji has gotten better and there are partial to complete prompts for writing the ones you don’t know. They are also presented in sentences with furigana readings which gives you context and extra vocabulary.After you time out you can replay what your response looked like. My only criticism is there is one kanji that isn’t accepted by the drawing pad even when I trace the prompt. I have another kanji app that I have used for a while that is good, but this one definitely provides learning in a fun and exciting way.

It’s ok.
Good for practicing kanji you already learned, but the timer makes it hard for learning new kanji.
