Ratings and Reviews
I love it, perfect through
This is probably the best app that I have found so far that allows me to both write, type, and choose out of multichoice questions. I really appreciate the statistics, and the different colors on the charts to tell me what I need to work on. I have been learning easily and will continue using this app. One thing that I wish would be added is the app putting together a quiz/test feom all of our weaknesses so that we can learn from that instead of flashcards, but you can create your own quiz by hand. I’m just lazy, y’all. I like cutting the extra that isn’t needed. Don’t let this filter your lenses. I have no idea what I would do without this app, I used to use duolingo but--no offense to the creator to that app, duolingo is a great app too--- i had ads every second. I could never focus. I might have to put tape over my mouth because I keep mentioning this, but this app allows me to study seamlessly. I can even create my own quizzes. And with the drawing tool, if the app can’t detect if it’s right, it gives you the model and asks you! There’s no confusion. The creator must be a mind reader because this app is completely free! Unbelievable! And the creator has an app for kanji! Just amazing. I wonder why this isn’t viral, because I love it. That’s saying something because I’m extrememly picky.
This app is amazing. I honestly can’t believe it’s totally free.
First off, im not a serious learner, I’ve always been interested in Japanese but don’t have the time between work and school right now but I have ADHD and need something to stimulate my brain every once in a while when im not doing anything, in an effort to stay off social media because of It’s addictive nature I downloaded Duolingo and blocked all social apps during my work/study hours. And downloaded this app.
Duolingo helps me to get familiar with a few letters of the alphabet at a time which I then add to a list on this app to keep practicing. I love that I can make my quizzes as long or short as I want it, I can take a 50 second quiz while I’m waiting for my lunch to reheat (always end up doing multiple short quizzes!)
It helps to keep my brain stimulated while not being too addictive or distracting AND it also helps me learn kanas! This is amazing
Everything about this app is perfect. The customization, the stats, the lists, the many different smart quizzes. I only wish I could get voice feedback when I select a kana in the reading mode to further solidify the association of the correct sound of the pronunciation and the written kana.
I would definitely not mind paying a couple dollars to have this app on my phone but I don’t even see ads! The developer(s) are doing such a selfless job 😭
A pretty good app to learn hiragana and katakana... But with few issues
I really like this app. The practice feature is great. And it helps you in the journey of learning Japanese... But there are a few issues with it. Sometimes it’s a little weird the pronunciation of every symbol. To explain this better it’s like a Japanese robot is talking, but it is barely understandable. Plus, when writing the kanas in the correct order,(with the practice feature in hard mode) the machine just gets exited and tells you it’s correct, even if you haven’t even finished to write it. This maybe a little confusing for some users (including me) and sometimes I just forget some details from the kanas that are very important to read ir properly. In conclusion, I think it is a great app to learn hiragana and katakana, but it can improve. Thank you for reading until the end and have a great day :)
Edit: nope, this is the best out there <3
