Japanese learners now have 8 situation lessons, 5 new (zoo, breakfast, family, classroom, bedtime), each with a scene picture, on redesigned screens where a tapped card shows at once if it's wrong. New letters get a short intro (see, hear, say, trace) before the quiz. The map ends with a goal flag; numbers 0–10 show dots. Parents get a next step and plan contents in the report, restore results, a product reload button, and Leave a review in Settings. New installs open in the device language.

The listen button shows when a sound is playing. In Match Up and at round end, sound effects and pronunciation don't overlap. With sound off, drills and writing practice show how to turn it back on. The Sticker Book adds a color legend, locks on cells not yet open, and a note that a perfect island challenge earns all its stamps at once. Leave early after a star and Home invites you to keep going. After the parental check, Terms and Privacy open in the app. Screen-reader labels improved.

Learn familiar Japanese words in three short situations: listen, read, use a sentence, and review. Contextual kanji include furigana. Pronunciation labels in English-to-Korean and Korean-to-Japanese cards and matching are clearer. Purchases, restores, and the Terms and Privacy links now each ask for a fresh parental check.

Wrong answers now play the correct letter or word. The learning-language screen shows your current direction, and a broken streak is shown as a fresh start. Unlocked islands are announced right on the round-complete screen, and stroke tracing and matching give more sound feedback. Lock icons and button labels are easier to read.

PiPi Hello is now KanaSprout. Your existing learning and features remain available. We also made the Japanese parental-gate instructions more concise.
