About

A Japanese-learning app built for Chinese speakers — and for anyone who wants the JLPT path laid out clearly. START WHERE YOU ARE The material is grouped by JLPT level (N5 to N1), never by textbook chapter. Within a level the vocabulary is shuffled into a deck and drawn at random, so you never have to guess how hard a word is from where it sits. Grammar points are taught in order, because each one builds on the last. PRACTICE WHAT YOU LEARNED A Practice tab serves four-choice fill-in-the-blank questions for your current level, drawn from both the vocabulary examples and the grammar points. Switch to New or Review. Every answer comes with the correct form and an explanation, and grammar questions also show a full translation of the sentence. Progress is kept on your device. EXAMPLES THAT LOOK LIKE A TEXTBOOK SHOULD Every example sentence carries readings above the kanji — on the word, not on the character, because Japanese readings belong to words. Each sentence and its translation sit together in their own tinted block, so you always know which meaning belongs to which sentence. Tap a word, a sentence or a syllabary entry to hear it read aloud; the speaking speed is adjustable in Settings. A REFERENCE PAGE FOR WHAT YOU KEEP LOOKING UP The Reference tab collects what learners look up again and again: the 50-sound syllabary (each with a Chinese sound-alike), numbers, counters, colours, days of the week, dates and months, plus countries, peoples and languages. Every entry has a reading, a meaning and audio. AN ACCOUNT IS OPTIONAL — BUT IT LETS YOU CARRY YOUR PROGRESS ACROSS DEVICES You can use everything without registering: the full N5 material is available to anonymous users. If you'd rather not lose your place when you switch phones, sign in with Apple, Google or WeChat and your progress is attached to that account. You can delete that account at any time (Settings → Account → Delete account). ABOUT ADS AND YOUR DATA The app has **no ads and does not track you**. It does include a Meta (Facebook) SDK, used **only to measure whether our advertising is working**: it tells Meta about exactly two events — that this device installed the app, and that the app was opened. We **do not** send it your learning progress or the words and grammar you have studied, and we **do not collect the advertising identifier**; the event data is set to be used for ad attribution only, so it cannot be used to target ads at you as an individual. The Apple, Google and WeChat sign-in components run only when you tap them, and are not used for tracking. Full details are in the privacy policy. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE, NOT FOR A TEST SCORE Free to download, with no subscription and no in-app purchases. Download the material once and the app works offline.

What's New in Progressive Nihongo

1.1.5

November 12, 2026

Optional accounts: sign in with Apple, Google or WeChat and your progress syncs across devices (the full N5 material stays available without an account). You can sign out or delete your account from Settings, and account deletion is also explained on a public web page. Added the Meta (Facebook) SDK, used only to measure advertising performance: it sends just two events — app install and app open — never your learning progress, and it does not collect the advertising identifier. Fixed guest progress being wiped when you sign in; fixed progress showing as 0 after signing in; fixed the interface language resetting to English after signing out. Fixed the WeChat sign-in callback opening the app to a "Page Not Found".
