Tova Learn Japanese

Write, speak & read Japanese

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

One Japanese character a day: trace every stroke, say it aloud, get scored on-device. Hiragana, Katakana & JLPT kanji — with romaji on every card. Learn Japanese one character a day — and actually remember it. Tova Learn Japanese is a short daily drill, not a lecture. Each day you meet one character, trace every stroke in the correct order, then say the word out loud and get scored — all on your device. Every character shows its romaji reading and meaning before you trace, so you always know what it is and how to say it. THE DAILY LOOP • Meet it — see the character, its romaji reading, and its meaning, and hear it spoken. • Trace it — write every stroke in the right order with guided finger tracing and animated stroke order. • Say it — speak the word aloud. On-device speech recognition scores your pronunciation, then you're done for the day. WHY IT WORKS • Romaji on every card — read and pronounce kanji even before you can read kana. • Real stroke order — guided, animated, and checked as you trace. • Honest pronunciation feedback — scored on-device, not just pass/fail. • Streaks and a Stroke Studio of every character you've learned keep you coming back. ON-DEVICE & PRIVATE Pronunciation is scored entirely on your device with an on-device speech model — your microphone audio never leaves your phone. WHAT'S INCLUDED • Free: Hiragana, Katakana, and all of JLPT N5. • Pro: JLPT N4 & N3 — 400+ more characters, real-life paths, unlimited daily drills, a permanent streak, and an ad-free experience.
