What's New in renshuu

1.15.22

February 17, 2026

Fixes the page going to the previous page when opening the menu. Unfortunately, the tap-through issue (when tapping an item in the menu) is still present, and I am waiting for a fix from a library that renshuu uses. This only affects iOS 26.x users.

User reviews

Great learning experience

As a beginner to learning Japanese this has been a great help. It’s allowed me to already understand multiple of the hiragana in only a few days and I can make out the words in all hiragana without the romaji. The art is a bonus and it adds a game like aspect to it making it more enjoyable.

Great for a starter

I am starting from the abc. Looks like a great app for any beginner.

No subscription needed

This is definitely the best app for learning Japanese because there is no subscription. Its honestly rare to find a laugange learning app that doesn't have a subscription. Can you please make a Chinese and Korean Laugange learning app? I'm trying to find a subscription free Korean and Chinese app.

Clean, NO AI Learning

Absolutely loving renshuu so far— the mnemonics are an especially helpful tool. This is my first time learning Japanese, and I wanted an app committed to being NO AI! Renshuu goes above and beyond.

Super duper ultra sonically awesome

Renshuu will always prevent you from overloading yourself with more new characters than you can handle a day and switching to review mode after is a W system, also has many tools that are only there when you need it so everything you need if you’re only trying to learn kana/kanji and vocab words its there, combine it with an app like Teuida to translate your knowledge from Renshuu to Teuida since Teuida teaches you how to use vocab in real life, I mastered all of Hiragana in 2 days (with breaks)
