Camerito can also help you check on an older parent or a baby, or take a quick look at a dog, cat or other pet while you are away. GOOD TO KNOW Camerito connects your own devices. It does not set up or display third-party CCTV, IP, video doorbell or smart camera hardware. It is a monitoring aid, not a replacement for a certified alarm, emergency service or professional security system. Performance depends on the devices, permissions, power and network connection. SUBSCRIPTIONS In-app purchases are processed by Apple. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled through your Apple Account. Camerito does not receive or store your card number. Need help?

Kikoe lets you do your WaniKani and BunPro reviews out loud. Sign in to WaniKani or BunPro inside the app and start your reviews as usual. When a card comes up, say the answer. Readings are heard in Japanese and meanings in English. Kikoe types what you said into the answer box and submits it. If it can't match what it heard to an answer, it shows you the transcript and waits. You can also control the review by voice, in English or Japanese: • "next" or 次: go to the next card • "wrong", "incorrect" or 間違い: mark the answer wrong • "pause" or ストップ: mute the mic • "help" or ヘルプ: show the list of commands Settings: • Turbo mode moves to the next card after a correct answer. • Ippatsu mode submits a wrong answer instead of letting you try again. • Corrections: if the recognizer keeps mishearing a word, tap the transcript and save what you meant. Kikoe uses it from then on. • Strict kanji readings: a reading answer must be in kana, not the kanji itself. • Noise reduction for noisy rooms. • Keep the screen on during reviews. • Turn off the app you don't use. WaniKani needs a read-only API token so Kikoe can look up the current item. Kikoe can find it on WaniKani's token page for you, or you can paste one in. The token is stored in the Keychain on your device. BunPro doesn't need a token. Kikoe doesn't collect any data or track you. Kikoe isn't affiliated with WaniKani, Tofugu or BunPro. You need your own account with either service.
