### 4/5 — Use hiragana instead of romaji

*2021-08-17*

This app is great for quick practice, but their is some romaji mixed into the app, specifically in the section where it tells you the new words in the article. Hiragana would make using this app much easier, as romaji makes reading more difficult. I also would be surprised if anyone downloaded a news app not being able to read kana, all the articles are in full Japanese so it seems a little out of place to me. Great app though, I will continue using it!
