I’m a self study learner and this app has been the best way to put everything I’m learning to practice while having resources that help me get it right and the flashcards for words I really want to hammer home makes it even better and practicing reading makes the vocabulary drills feel more relevant than learning them from a textbook. One of the best resources in my lineup that allows me to see the progress I’m making.

Exactly what I needed!!
A great app! I get to practice reading and listening
No kanji needed in the beginning so great to practice hiragana and katakana!
The stories to read are very fun and I already feel my japanese improving :))
One can add vocab from the story which then become flash cards
I‘ve been using it for 5 months already and even though some stories are limited for premium users which I am not- I did not feel any lackings and atm there are more than enough stories to explore
I hope they keep it that way!

Super pratique
J’adore l’application !! Les histoires sont a tous niveaux,
Mais ce que j’adore c’est surtout la possibilité d’avoir les furigana et la traduction des mots et des kanjis que l’on ne connaît pas
Franchement je recommande pour toute personne qui souhaite s’entraîner a lire !

Keep in mind
Plenty of material for beginners but a bit less material for more advanced learners
Highly recommended!
This app makes learning Japanese natural and painless. I highly recommend it to anyone
Promising, but not there yet
Note: I am a premium subscriber of the app, and my review reflects both paid and free features.
Yomu Yomu is a good graded reader resource. However, it is lacking features that other resources like Satori Reader have. The biggest downside of Yomu Yomu is that it uses AI for its audio book feature, so it sounds exceptionally unnatural (you can get around this by increasing the reading speed to 1.25x, to sound a bit more human).
I have been a subscriber of Du Chinese, made by the same company, for years. I truly believe that Du Chinese is the best Mandarin learning resource out there. It’s very accurate, uses human voice acting for its audio book feature, and teaches grammar.
I am using Yomu Yomu, and paying for it, over better resources currently available on the market, because I truly believe Yomu Yomu can get to the same level as Du Chinese.
Currently, Yomu Yomu is good, not great, but very promising. I’m excited to see it improve, and I look forward to amending my review to give it 5 stars in the future.

Response from developer
Thank you for your kind words! We'll do our best to keep improving the app!
Great app for studying Kanji
I have been studying Japanese seriously for 1 year now. I have a basic understanding of grammar, and I can read hiragana and katakana. This app is quickly growing my ability and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn Japanese quickly! Let me tell you, reading is very important in the Japanese language if you would ever like to visit Japan. There are plenty of signs that have 0 English on them.

Fantastic
An actual good app for reading and understanding Japanese. It’s grown on me a lot and I really appreciate what it does
Excellent learning app
Really love learning with this app. It’s very adaptable the way you can turn on/off things like translation and kana etc. I can’t recommend enough 😊
Phenomenal!
I’ve downloaded many fine Japanese learning apps from the App Store, but Yomu Yomu is easily the best for someone like me who can read Kana and has a basic understanding of Japanese grammar and who now just needs a bunch of easy stuff to read.
It makes reading enjoyable by hiding information and then revealing it when you need it with a simple tap. It also has audio and spaced repetition flash cards. AND you can enlarge the font size for both the main text and the Furigana if you have vision problems.
It’s a very thoughtfully produced app and I commend its creators.

The best reading app I've used!
Please add more things to read!
Perfect!
The best way to learn is through immersion paired with spaced repetition, and this affordable app has both! Matches your JLPT level and lets you add unknown words to a built-in SRS.
An incredibly helpful and useful Japanese learning tool
I'm a beginner in learning Japanese and found myself looking for ways to slowly improve my Japanese reading skills and came across Yomu Yomu. Yomu Yomu provides readily available Japanese stories to read regardless of your Japanese level. You can read beginner stories, advanced stories, and even expert stories, allowing you to test your Japanese reading skills regardless of your Japanese level. Each story contains translations of words and allows assistance in reading Kanji words so even if you get lost in a story, your able to quickly understand words that threw you off. I'm surprised that this go-to learning tool hasn't been notified by the language acquisition community, because this app is incredibly helpful.

Best reading app for beginners
Most reading apps I've tried are too hard for me. This one actually has things you can read even as a beginner.
This app is wonderful!
This app is absolutely wonderful! I love the stories that range from cute kid's stories to very serious little tales. The listening options is very useful, especially for beginners.
Good stories
Great practical way to study Japanese by reading stories. Having the translation readily available and simple words really helps me as a beginner.
To good
I just went to Japan and I started reading this app. I learned a lot of Japanese thank you Yomu Yomu !
i used to love this app
i used this app almost daily to help with my learning, but now you need to pay to listen to the audio and you're planning on making some of the stories exclusive too? well thanks, now you're just another resource that i cant access.
Génial !!
Super application qui permet de lire des textes de tout niveau et qui permet de s’améliorer rapidement.
J’aime beaucoup le fait de pouvoir appuyer sur une phrase qu’on ne comprend pas pour en avoir la traduction !
