## What is WristInk Japanese?

Learn to write hiragana and katakana the way you actually remember them — by hand, right on your Apple Watch.

WristInk turns spare moments into writing practice. Raise your wrist, trace a kana over its stroke-order guide, and feel each stroke as you go. No need to pull out your phone.

WRITE ON YOUR WRIST
• Trace every kana directly on the Apple Watch screen
• A faint guide shows the correct stroke order, animated stroke by stroke
• Instant scoring tells you how close your shape and order were
• Gentle haptics tap your wrist as each stroke registers
• Turn the Digital Crown to move between characters
• Flip any card to see its romaji and an example word

LEARN, DON'T JUST DRILL
• Smart daily review (spaced repetition) brings back the kana you're about to forget
• Add a set number of new kana each day at your own pace
• Optional daily reminder keeps the habit going
• Track your progress over time

PRACTICE ON IPHONE TOO
• The same tracing experience on a larger canvas for focused sessions
• Build custom practice sets and send them straight to your Watch

WHAT YOU CAN PRACTICE
• Free: the full hiragana syllabary
• WristInk Pro (one-time purchase): unlock katakana plus voiced and semi-voiced kana (dakuten & handakuten)

Whether you're starting Japanese from zero or finally nailing katakana, WristInk makes daily handwriting practice something you'll actually keep up.
