Learn the shapes and stroke order of Japanese katakana by tracing each letter with your finger. Built for young children (ages 3–7) and for anyone learning Japanese. Follow the guide A pen-tip marker glides along each stroke from the green start point to the red end point, showing the correct order and direction. Trace along and feel a gentle tap as your line takes shape (on iPhone, and when tracing with Apple Pencil Pro). Every finished character is graded with a familiar Japanese mark: a flower (excellent), a circle (good), or a cross (try again). What you get • All 46 basic katakana, laid out on the classic gojūon chart • Stroke-order guide with numbered start/end points and animation • Pronunciation audio for every letter, plus sound effects • Adjustable difficulty for how strictly your tracing is judged • Apple Pencil support: stroke thickness follows your pressure, and Apple Pencil Pro adds haptics you can feel as you trace (requires an iPad that supports Apple Pencil Pro) • Words while you practice: as you work on a letter, an illustrated word appears with that letter left blank—trace it in to complete the word • Shuffle practice: run through your unlocked letters in random order • My Garden: watch flowers grow as you practice, and compare today's writing with your very first try • Romaji readings to support learners (in non-Japanese languages) Made for little hands and grown-up learners Playful marks and sounds keep children engaged, while a calm, uncluttered layout works just as well for adults. Purchases are protected behind a parents' gate. The app works offline and needs no account. Free and Pass The five letters ア・イ・ウ・エ・オ are free forever. Unlock all 46 letters with a 1-Month or 1-Year Pass—these are one-time and non-renewing, so nothing is charged automatically. Available on iPhone and iPad.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Basic at none against Learn Katakana's shown. Basic also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
