Expand your Japanese vocabulary and comprehension by getting in the habit of reading short, native content daily. Manabi Reader makes it easy to jump into interesting native reading material without having to worry about your level: just one tap on any word you don't know to see its reading and definition.

Don't waste time trying to find engaging reading material—a curated selection of news feeds, online magazines, blogs, even folktales are collected here for you. You can of course also open any webpage in Manabi Reader to help you through it.

Make a habit out of getting your news in Japanese and you'll find your skills multiply. With even a few minutes each day, reading is essential to picking up Japanese. Memory is one of those things where it sticks best when you're having fun, so dive in!

• Read native texts.
• One-tap word lookups (with audio!).
• Word tracking: you'll see how much of an article's vocabulary is already familiar. New words are highlighted for you.
• Kanji tracking: we'll also track the kanji you're familiar with as you read articles. Check your progress within JLPT levels.
• One-tap flashcard creation: memorize the words you look up.
• Review flashcards from an article once you're done reading it.
• Automatic furigana.
• BYOC (bring your own content) via URL or copy/paste; or, choose from our curated selection of reading materials.
• Reddit category with aggregated Japanese articles and discussions.
• 3rd-party dictionary apps are supported.

Excellente app

Manabi est l’app de lecture en japonais la plus agréable à utiliser parmi toutes celles que j’ai pu tester (et j’en ai testé beaucoup 😩) : quasiment entièrement gratuite, elle offre une variété de contenu gigantesque, en plus de définitions complètes, d’une interface épurée et qui ne bug pas. Elle est toute en anglais, certes, mais c’est préférable pour apprendre la grammaire japonaise, puisqu’elle est plus proche de la grammaire anglaise que de la française. Je l’utilise aussi souvent que possible, puisque la lecture est le meilleur enseignant quand on est autodidacte ! Je la conseille vivement pour tous les apprenants, peu importe leur niveau (d’autant plus que le JLPT est indiqué pour chaque mot). Merci pour cette app géniale !!

Developer Response ,

Thanks very much for the kind review. It would be amazing if I could use your testimonial elsewhere - if you consent please update this review /or email me. Hope you like the latest update.

Ça a l’air vraiment pas mal

A première vu, cette application a l’air vraiment super ! Des définitions pour des combinaisons de kanji, un système de flashcards, manquerait plus que de pouvoir étudier kanji par kanji afin d’en apprendre les sens possibles !

Looks like a nice app ! Definitions, flashcards are useful to learn ! Some tools might be missing, such as a dictionary where we could study one by one kanji in order to get all the possible meaning !

App supprimée?

Je n’arrive pas à ouvrir l’application alors qu’elle est à jour… L’application n’est-elle plus valable en France? Dommage c’était une excellente appli😢

Developer Response ,
