would be a good app, if I could buy it

I would happily pay £5 for the app to remove adds from it.

Wrong romanji with hiragana

The row that is ja-jo with the ten-ten marks should be za, ji, zu, ze, zo. This app already teaches you wrong.

Trying to learn Japanese

I would say this is a good app but some of the information seems to be wrong or conflicts with other Japanese learning applications. I think it's content needs to be reviewed before I give it more stars
