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

▸ Hear the pronunciation of every character
▸ 3 quiz modes: kana→romaji, romaji→kana, audio→kana
▸ Listening drills — hear it, then write it from memory
STAY CONSISTENT:
▸ Daily Challenge — 8 questions picked from your weakest kana
▸ Spaced repetition (SM-2) schedules each character's review
▸ Streak counter & achievement badges keep you coming back
▸ Weekly charts show practice time & accuracy trends
DESIGNED FOR REAL LEARNING:
