Ratings and Reviews
Good app, in serious need of aesthetic update
I liked the website so I decided to shell out for the iPhone app so I could practice on the go.
The transition to the app has a few disadvantages though. On an iPhone 5/5s it's apparent that it isn't designed with a 4" retina screen in mind. Black bars, iOS 6 keyboard (which I constantly mistype on, giving me wrong answers) and fuzzy kana graphics all detract from the experience. I also quite liked the running score, which isn't present in the app version, perhaps due to screen real estate. But it was still a great feature online.
The concept is good, but after 4 years without an update I do hope the developer gives it a fresh lick of paint, after that it would be worth £2 of anybody's money.
Awesome, just one little problem
This app is absolutely brilliant, incredibly good and straight forward way to learn, there is one slight issue I'm having, if I go to settings and include a different row or make any changes then press 'start', I have to close the app and reopen it to be able to use it again, it goes back to the sliding page but no text appears until the apps been reset, sort that little dink out and it'll make this the perfect app :)
I know know Kana!
Love this app, I use it on the bus to work and have now learned all my ひらがな. The one change I would make is that on the practise screen you could see your score without seeing the answer!
