Ringotan vs Kanji Widget

Learn Kanji by actually writing it! Ringotan is the first app built from the ground up to teach you how to WRITE Japanese Kanji, not just read them. By combining advanced input detection with industry-standard SRS (spaced repetition) algorithms, Ringotan ensures you learn as fully and quickly as possible. ----------------- Ringotan is free for a limited time. We update frequently, so be sure to check back for new features!

Learn Japanese without opening an app — one character at a time, right on your home screen. Kanji Widget puts hiragana, katakana, or a JLPT kanji character directly on your iOS home screen. Every time you unlock your phone, you see one character with its reading and meaning — a free repetition, dozens of times a day, with zero extra effort.

A widget doesn't — it's already there. Kanji Widget turns the moments you check your phone into study moments, without a streak to keep or a lesson to finish. PRIVACY No account required. No tracking. Your progress stays on your device. Once a study set is downloaded, the widget works completely offline.
