La meilleure application

Pendant que j’étais en étude de langue au japon c’était mon doudou, ma bouée de sauvetage, ma marraine la bonne fée

はい!

I needed this app in my life. Thank you for this (totally free) eternally useful little gem. 11/10

The best Japanese-English dictionary available

Top marks, does exactly what I need and never lets me down. Missing some net slang but otherwise extremely comprehensive and great UI.

Very comprehensive and easy to use

My favorite Japanese dictionary. You can be offline and have it work.

Amazing

Very good dictionary I am able to look up what I need quickly then move on with my day something I did see with other’s I had used

One stop shop for all things Japanese

For the most part, at least. As a native Japanese speaker who did not know much about reading nor writing in Japanese, Jisho has been a priceless treasure to me. Fantastic app!

すばらしい

I use this app more than any other app on my phone. It has a GREAT interface and many different tools and features. Plus it’s free! I almost always decline writing reviews but I appreciate this app so much I just had to.

Best dictionary

Has all the features you could want, and is very lightweight to download offline. Never had an issue, and the hand-drawn kanji is amazingly good

To the developer

I love you ,thank you so much for making this ,it really helps with learning Japanese, it being free is just yet another reason for me to love you more

good dictionary

i like how it has stroke orders and direction for all kanji

Useful

Decided to try this one and a couple of others after Imiwa destroyed itself in its last update. This is the one I kept

Easy and simple

Easy and simple

Good Jisho

Much better than the other Jisho I was using. The handwritten congee function is not as forgiven as the other Jisho I was using, but it has much fewer bugs and much more examples sentences so overall it’s a better jisho

I log this app

Awesome super ultra cool !! お疲れ!!

The best

The best on iPad and iPhone, also works well on macOS.

Indispensable

Nothing flashy and exciting, but simple to use and enormously useful. Would absolutely recommend.

Excellent japanese app

Good app to look up kanji with detailed examples
Should be one of the tools to enhance learning

Cannot fully recommend until certain issues are addressed

I am a paid, frequent user of Shirabe Jisho. While it is a very good overall app, it has some notable flaws:

1. Bookmarks/saved entries cannot be attached to an account and used between devices. I have 400+ entries saved in my Shirabe Jisho iPhone app, but when I use Shirabe Jisho on iPad or Mac those saved entries do not transfer.

2. There are only two color themes, green and blue, and the blue is actually purple. Purple has poor contrast on a dark background. More colors, please.

3. Font/UI scaling on the Mac OS app is awful. 100% is too small. 200% is broken.

Great tool

Great app for those of us who are intermediate- advanced learners. Love all the different ways to look up and learn about kanji.

Awesome app

I’ve just started learning Japanese and I came across this app, after looking at a few others. This for me, has everything I could ask for.
A fantastic app.
