What's New in Write Kanji and Kana

1.2.1

November 4, 2026

This update makes stroke checking fairer and fixes drawing on iPad. • On iPad, drawing with your finger now shows the line right away, instead of only after you lift your finger. • Rails accepts short strokes, dots and corners you trace carefully, even quickly — on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. • Rails now notices a stroke traced from the wrong end. • Short strokes get more room in small drawing squares, like word practice and Apple Watch. • In Blank and Hard, a kanji written a little off-center or smaller still counts. • In Hard, the help after a few misses now shows up where you are writing.

User reviews

Recomendo

Excelente aplicativo. Bem intuitivo e metodologia de ensino bem legal. Gostei. Para quem deseja aprender japonês, sem dúvidas, este app vai agregar demais.

Forces you to pay attention

I liked that when you are practicing a kanji the app makes you just copy the kanji, but then it takes away the stroke indicators and you realize you can’t just copy the strokes mindlessly. It forces your brain to notice the details.

Needs more, but looks good

Would gladly pay if it included small size writing rather than whole screen, for those of us using iPad. If any app is going to get people from whole screen drawing and stroke order to small writing, I’d love to see it be this one. Just a simple option to make it 10% the size it is now would be great.
