### 4/5 — Great, but could be better

*2026-08-13*

No ads (yay!), although you need to pay for premium to be able to do every lesson (like the writing ones, which I sadly don’t have money for). Overall, great app. It teaches the basic letters of hiragana and also some basic words and vocabulary too.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words. You can direct us to receive a discount code on MochiMochi's course: https://m.me/MochiGlobal. We hope MochiMochi could be your great partner in your Japanese learning journey

### 5/5 — Way more helpful than du lingo

*2026-08-03*

I tried Duolingo to learn kanji a while back and it took me way longer to understand with their way they set up their lessons

### 2/5 — Multiple server timeouts every session

*2026-07-24*

The app is frustrating to use. It times out multiple times a session when updating their golden time (SRS), fetching audio will fail so some drills will just have no audio, or a lesson won’t load. I would give it 1 star, but it is a great app hindered by simple error recovery that could be fixed.

**Developer response:** We are sorry for your unhappy experience. Could you tell me more your the problem you have when using our app by contacting us via Fanpage: https://m.me/MochiGlobal or email support@mochidemy.com. We'll support you as soon as possible.

### 3/5 — Premium Plus Kana  is not for All Courses across the japanese learning apps

*2026-06-26*

The Premium Plus subscription is too expensive, and the advertising is confusing.

I paid for Premium Plus on MochiKana because it states that it includes access to all Japanese courses. However, that has not been my experience.

* MochiKaiwa does not recognise my subscription at all. I only have access to the same three sample lessons that are available with a free account. The account remains free. 
* MochiKanji updates to Premium, but not Premium Plus, so I only have access to the basic content rather than the full library. Further the mochikana premium plus states that all kanji courses are included, but it is not clear only the kanji course in Mochikana and not in the dedicated app for MochiKana

This is misleading. If Premium Plus does not provide full access across all of your Japanese learning apps, the description should clearly explain exactly what is and isn’t included before people subscribe.

Please either honour what is advertised by providing full Premium Plus access across all the Japanese apps or make the subscription details much clearer. Right now, it feels like I paid for something I didn’t receive.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your responses and suggestions. We are also sorry for your unhappy experience when using the MochiMochi app. We are trying our best to improve our product that helps users to have great experience as much as possible, so we hope you could continue supporting and giving us more recommendations directly.

### 5/5 — Dommage que ce soit payant pour la version complète, mais sinon j’adore

*2026-06-23*

Beaucoup mieux que les autres applications que j’ai pu voir pour apprendre le hiragana
