Almost perfect

This is a great app to accompany the remembering the kanji book.
It let's you revise the kanji you have studied already from the book and with rtk 2 included it's also simple to find out the readings if you want to.

I have two problems with the app however.
Firstly trying to add all the kanji from a lesson to a study list sometimes crashes the app.
Secondly, this app is not in line with the latest release of the book (6th edition). This means that the frame numbers are out of sync and there are a few kanji missing from the lessons.

If these two things were rectified in some way I would definitely rate this a five star app. It's already a valuable part of my studies.

(edit- now even better since you can import your reviewing the kanji stories!)

Latest version edit- I've returned to this app after letting my studies slide a bit.
it supports 6th edition now! great!
I would like some sort of srs to be included in the flashcards but I suppose you can't have everything! The ability to draw your kanji now is much appreciated. Great app. You won't get better for rtk!

Lacks spaced repetition system

Study lists are useless without some way of tracking progress. In fact, if you are serious about studying kanji, there is only one study list: all of the kanji in the RTK book. What you need is for the app to help you organise which Kanji to review over time, which is exactly what the spaced repetition system does.

Also we found the stroke order to be different to what is shown in the book for some kanji (e.g. convex).

Finally, being the official app and not having the original RTK stories makes it feel overpriced, especially when spaced repetition is available in other free apps.

Use this with the book

I would have liked an Anki-style priority system with the flash cards in this app (ie shuffling the deck around based on your results) but otherwise it’s absolutely perfect to use in tandem with the book. I also highly recommend using a cheap stylus (saves a lot of paper!).
