Stop juggling 4 apps to learn Japanese. Foxie Nihongo is the all-in-one Japanese learning app with an offline dictionary, JLPT N5-N1 practice, and an AI tutor that runs entirely on your device โ€” no internet required. WHY LEARNERS SWITCH TO FOXIE NIHONGO Most Japanese learners use a stack: Anki for flashcards, a dictionary app for lookups, Bunpro for grammar, and maybe a JLPT app for test prep. That's 4 apps, multiple subscriptions, and scattered progress. Foxie Nihongo replaces all of them. OFFLINE AI JAPANESE TUTOR Practice conversation with a Japanese tutor powered by an on-device language model. Unlike cloud-based AI tutors, your conversations stay private and work without internet after a one-time download.

JAPANESE DICTIONARY โ€” 30,000+ WORDS Search by kanji, kana, romaji, English, or Vietnamese. Every word includes pitch accent, example sentences, and audio pronunciation. Four ways to search: - Type in any language - Voice search โ€” speak to look up words - Camera OCR โ€” point at Japanese text to translate - Handwriting โ€” draw kanji you don't know how to type JLPT N5 TO N1 PREPARATION - Vocabulary drills with explanations for every answer - Full mock tests with score tracking and history - Grammar practice with sentence reconstruction - Graded reading passages with tap-to-translate 11 PRACTICE MODES Flashcards with spaced repetition.
