Top #1 Japanese Dictionary
Search from the incredible Jisho.org from your mobile device with a clean and easy to use interface. More accessible than Chrome, this app features ad-free search capabilities for more efficient studying without distractions.
Japanese Dictionary is a Japanese-English offline dictionary featuring over 160000 entries, over 10000 kanji and almost 60000 example sentences.
Japanese Dictionary also is a Japanese language learning tool. It includes translations of some words in French, German and Russian and displays example sentences, kanji information and conjugated forms for each word.
The words can be searched using kanji, kana, romaji or latin alphabets. Full sentences and conjugated forms are also recognized. Kanji can be searched by selecting multiple radicals.
Like most of the Japanese dictionary apps out there, the data is from the awesome JMdict project made by the Electronic Dictionary Research and Development Group thanks to Jim Breen and others.

Ratings and Reviews
Excellent and very helpful for beginners
This is a great dictionary, especially if you are a beginning Japanese language learner. First off, I have to say the only problem I had was my own fault, and it was because I got a new iPhone and did not realize that the sound on some apps is muted if you have you ringer off. It was working on my iPad so I kept trying to figure it out. This is an inconsistency in iPhone so if you use Jisho (and GENKI for that matter), turn your ringer on to take advantage of the pronunciation help. You will get so much out of this feature as a beginner.
Also amazing: if you are working on your handwriting, go into the hamburger menu, under alphabet there are stroke order animations for both Hiragana and Katakana. You can also find this under the kanji listings for words if you press the little “play” arrow under the kanji. The animation pops up.
Also found under the menu, you will also find some vocabulary and grammar notes by JLPT level. You can bookmark words you look up which will be listed under favorites.
I truly liked this app so much and so I paid paid for premium.
Better than the website
While I do like the format of the website slightly better, that’s my only criticism. Otherwise this app still gives you plenty of information plus news articles in Japanese for more practice and reading material. You can even make notes on certain words or Kanji and I think I will be using this a lot more
Most useful JP learning source
Super easy to look up for the words meaning. On top there are many recent news which you can choose easy level so that you can try your listening practice along the script(great). Plus more learning grammar on this app. Amazing!!🙏🥰
