Learned JLPT words, only to forget them a few days later? Manana keeps track of what to learn today and when to review it. Just open the app and pick up where you left off. - Words, one small step at a time Not sure where to start? Leave the order to Manana. Over 9,000 JLPT words from N5 to N1 are split into steps of 20, so all you do is move on to the next one. Every word comes with an example sentence and audio, plus multiple meanings, verb conjugations, synonyms, and antonyms, all on one screen. - Reviews that show up right before you forget FSRS-6, the review algorithm also adopted by Anki, adjusts each word's review interval based on your study history. When words are due, you'll get a reminder, and today's cards will be waiting when you open the app. - From words to kanji, and back to words No more looking up unfamiliar kanji somewhere else. Tap a kanji in any word to see its details. Stroke-order animation, on'yomi and kun'yomi, radicals and components, look-alike kanji, and memory tips are all there. Follow the kanji to other words that use it, and watch the kanji you know grow naturally. - Build real test skills with JLPT mock exams Don't waste time grading and hunting for explanations. Submit, and your score and explanations are ready instantly. Take mock exams for every level from N5 to N1, listening audio included, just like the real test. Check your score by section to find weak spots, then retry only the questions you missed. - Japanese beyond the textbook: Daily Wrap Get the day's top stories from Japan and Korea, written as Japanese articles. Follow what's happening in Japan with the expressions people there actually use, or read familiar Korean news in Japanese. Every sentence has furigana, a translation, and audio, and each article shows how many N5–N1 words it contains. - Grammar, basics, and quizzes in one place N5–N1 grammar, hiragana basics, Speed Quiz, and handwriting practice on flashcards. Practice pronunciation and rhythm with shadowing: listen, then say it right after. - Study your way Already have Anki decks? No need to rebuild them. Import your .apkg files and review them in Manana. Create your own word lists from Excel, and gather tricky words in Bookmark folders. Stuck on a sentence? Break it down with the Sentence Helper. - See your progress add up Review status, your Study Report, study streaks, and mock exam score trends, all at a glance. Little by little, every day, your record grows into something to be proud of. - Anytime, anywhere, without interruption Keep studying words and kanji even without an internet connection. Sign in to keep your progress when you switch phones or use multiple devices, and study comfortably at night with dark mode. - Made by someone who got tired of making flashcards I spent a year in Japan studying Japanese with a flashcard app. I loved learning that way, but I had to build every word list myself, and the words I learned slowly faded because I never knew when to review them. "I wish there were an app where all I had to do was memorize." That one thought is how Manana began. I'm still improving it with feedback from users like you. If anything feels inconvenient, please let me know anytime. - Start for free With no ads, you can study the full N5 course and the first 3 steps of each level from N4 to N1 for free, and take one mock exam per level. Premium unlocks every step and every mock exam, unlimited reviews, and access to past news. Turn your first card today, and Manana will remember when you should see it again.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: JLPT단어장단어장 at none against Manana Japanese's 2. JLPT단어장단어장 also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 4 days) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Manana Japanese's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
