Sugoku
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sugoku is a drill app for high school mathematics, shown the way it looks in a printed textbook: fractions stacked with a horizontal bar, √ with a vinculum, raised exponents, and ∫, Σ, lim rendered properly. Problems are generated on the fly, so you never run out of practice. WHAT YOU CAN PRACTICE - 235 topics covering the full Japanese high school curriculum (Math I, A, II, B, C, III): algebra and proof, quadratic functions, sets and logic, trigonometry, exponentials and logarithms, analytic geometry, differentiation and integration, sequences, statistical inference, vectors, complex plane, conic sections, limits and calculus. - Three difficulty levels, from fundamentals to university entrance exam level. - Answers are not forced to be integers: type fractions and radicals directly. The answer boxes show the shape of the answer, so you learn how results are written. - Figures label vertices, angles and side ratios; graphs plot key points (intercepts, vertex, center). - Missed problems come back immediately. Bookmarks and mistake analysis let you drill only your weak spots. KYOKUISEN (RANKING) - A daily rating match with a leaderboard grouped by school year. - One attempt per day; watch a video ad to add attempts, up to three per day. - Your nickname and rating are visible to other players. Do not enter your real name or anything you would not want public. - Offline, your own records are shown instead. SUGOKU PREMIUM (IN-APP PURCHASE) - Removes ads. - Three Kyokuisen attempts every day, no video ads needed. - 20 coins at the start of each Kyokuisen season. - Bookmarks up to 500 items (20 on the free tier). - Answer timer with time analysis, plus the Sakura skin. - One-time purchase. Restore from the settings screen. COMMON TEST PREP PLAN (AUTO-RENEWABLE SUBSCRIPTION) - Topic-by-topic practice booklets in the style of Japan's Common Test (in Japanese). One booklet per field (14 in total) is free; the rest are included in the Common Test Prep Plan. - Monthly plan: ¥480 per month. Yearly plan: ¥3,800 per year (prices in Japan; other regions follow the App Store price). - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically for the same period and price unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. - Manage or cancel in your device's Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions. Restore purchases from the subscription screen. ADS - On the free tier, banner ads appear on the topic list and the result screen. - Video ads play only when you choose to add a Kyokuisen attempt. Ads never interrupt you mid-problem. PLEASE NOTE - The app is available in English and Japanese. When your device language is not Japanese, problem statements, answer fields and choices are shown in English. Hints, step-by-step explanations and Common Test prep booklets remain in Japanese. - Requires iOS 17.0 or later, iPhone and iPad. Study records are stored on your device. Leaderboard data is stored in Apple CloudKit. See the privacy policy for details, or contact us through the support page.
