功能很全，界面也很漂亮，日语入门者必备应用。
Great App
Very simple to use, very straightforward! Exactly what I needed.
Way better than my friend's lame kana app
This app rocked. I feel wiser and more enlightened for having downloaded it. I haven't used it yet, but I just know when I do I will learn something. And stuff. Thanks!
I just used the app! Love the animated stroke order. Top notch voice recording, too. I just wish this app had a sushi bar.

Beautiful and practical Kana app.
This is without doubt the nicest Kana chart app I have yet come across in the entire App Store and I have looked at a great many over the years. Beautifully designed and presented with a choice of black or white themes (I prefer the Black). It has all the options you could require - audio pronounciation, stroke order animations, practice writing, flashcard testgame, multiple kana font display - all seamlessly integrated into a simple and elegant interface.
Recently expanded beyond the two basic sets of 46 kana the only room for improvement is in Mirai completing the kana chart with the more advanced multiple kanas. I only hope they will move their existing Japanese apps (formerly iStart Japanese and Kana) to be iOS universal, to be iPad friendly. Great work.

Simple but functional :)
I was looking for a full screen app listing the hiragana (or katakana) taking advantage of the full iPad screen as an "aide de memoire", which this does nicely.
It has native pronunciation, but the sound quality isn't as good as I would like - in particular it doesn't cope with many letters in a row (eg trying to use the application as a sound board for speaking a word in Japanese). And I think it needs an option to turn off all the other sound effects (beeps on switching mode).
I'd also like diagrams (the combined kana, especially for foreign sounds).
One final small suggestion for improvement is to move all the characters a little higher within their box/circle - it is particularly noticeable in the "audio" mode that the kana are in the bottom half of the circle rather than centred, and it looks amateurish.

Helpful
This app is really helpful. I'm trying to teach myself and its helping me out a lot! Thanks
Great way to learn jp writing system
This app is awesome! Its easy to use, and nicely designed to practice hiragana and katakana.
Simple and beautiful
This app gets straight to the point, but doesn't sacrifice the aesthetic. On the contrary, this simple app invests in the design experience, making the app not only easy to use, but also pleasantly beautiful.
