Description

Practice Japanese writing with Skritter, whether you have a strong grasp of written Japanese and want to remember the characters better or are a beginner who doesn’t know where to start.

Skritter has existed for more than 10 years, and for a good reason: our learners are amazing! They help us with feedback, which allows us to create what we think is the best Japanese writing app out there!

Japanese writing uses three different scripts; Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji. Skritter offers all three and you can learn them through our “decks” (similar to a card deck) based on topics and difficulty.

Deck examples:
- Survival Japanese (for traveling in Japan)
- Food and drinks (learn to understand the menus at your favorite Japanese restaurant with delicious sushi, ramen, and other dishes)
- Cultural topics like Samurai Japanese
- More advanced topics like foreign policy
- And many more…

First, you learn a character’s meaning, then practice drawing it and before you know it, you’ll want to learn thousands of characters, and words like these two happy users:

“If I could only keep one app on my iPod, this would be it without a doubt. Skritter will change your life!”
― Wendy Werneth, UN Translator

“Learning to write characters has never been so fun. From writing zero to 2000+ characters in six months!”
― Brian Jackson, Economist

Have questions, problems, or feedback? We would love to hear from you. Reach out to us at team@skritter.com

Skritter

It’s a good app for different people to learn and write Japanese. Even if you are a beginner or have a bit of knowledge you can use the app. I didn’t know a thing about Japanese by know I know quite a bit so I can watch my favourite anime’s with knowing a bit of what they are saying and I can speak to my friends who speak fluent Japanese so I know what their saying. Overall, really good 5 stars

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the review, Don. So glad that you're learning a lot on Skritter. Happy studies!

Very good but needs some tweaks

It is excellent in some ways, especially the Apple Pencil recognition. There are some quirks though, in particular the fact that despite having JLPT decks it is not really adequate for studying for the JLPT exam: in the JLPT N5 deck (and any other JLPT deck) despite the words are level appropriate the kanji aren’t: it introduces straight away advanced kanjis, even from N1 level, that normally one wouldn’t be expected if not years later. This makes it very hard to use for exam preparation, or to use it at all unless one is already intermediate/advanced.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the feedback! The team plans on making improvements to this in the future.

This is great! The app is easy to use and layout is presented well. The Japanese sounds have been improve and the writing is more responsive. Could you update the Chinese app in the same way?

Developer Response ,

Thanks! We've just released Skritter: Write Chinese on iOS, which has the same layout, more audio, new example sentences, and lots more. We hope you enjoy!
