## What is YomiageKun?

Your school worksheet just learned to speak.

Can't read the pronunciation? Can't type it into a dictionary?
One photo fixes both.

= SHOOT. TAP. HEAR. =

Photograph any textbook page or handout. The layout stays exactly as printed — every word becomes tappable. Touch any word and hear its correct pronunciation instantly.

No typing required.
"How do you read this?" — now you'll always have an answer.
Just tap any word on the page for the correct pronunciation, right away.

Works with any school, any publisher, any handout. Whatever material your child brings home becomes a pronunciation practice tool.

= ENGLISH AND JAPANESE =

Tap an English word:
• Pronunciation read aloud
• Katakana reading (e.g. apple -> appuru) or IPA
• Japanese meaning

Tap a Japanese word:
• Pronunciation read aloud
• Romaji reading (e.g. taberu)
• English meaning (iOS 18 and above)

Useful not just for English learners, but also for learners of Japanese.

= AUTOMATIC WORD BOOK =

Every word you tap is saved to your word book automatically. Organize materials in folders.

• Study Mode (Pro): Hide words and test yourself
• Flash Cards (Pro): Quick card-flip review
• Quiz (Pro): Three types of multiple-choice test

= THREE QUIZ MODES (Pro) =

English word -> Choose the meaning
Meaning -> Choose the English word
Listen -> Choose the English word you hear

Three angles to make words truly stick.

= PERFECT FOR =

• Checking the pronunciation of words on classroom handouts
• Previewing or reviewing with your textbook
• Practicing pronunciation on your own — no teacher needed
• Long-press any word to hear the whole sentence read naturally
• Foreign learners of Japanese checking readings on real Japanese materials

= SIMPLE PRICING =

No subscription. Permanent license.
Works across iPhone and iPad signed in with the same Apple ID.
