Description

Studying for the JLPT exam, or just want to learn more kanji effectively? Then this application is for you.

Practice reading and writing kanji in the context of a collection of over 160,000 sample sentences. Simply tell the application what your JLPT level is, and which kanji you know and which kanji you are studying, and let the application do the rest.

The application will then pick words for you to practice based on the selected kanji and find sample sentences from it's database of over 160,000 sentences that use those words.

The application features two modes of play. One for reading, where you fill in the missing furigana, and one for writing, where you draw in the missing kanji. In writing mode, your kanji will be graded using the unique grading algorithm from our popular Japanese My Way application.

Using a unique color-coding system, it's easy to see what words are inside and outside of your JLPT level, as well as what words you know well, and what words you don't.

The Leitner-based system will also make sure you see more of the words you get wrong, and less of the words you get right. In fact, when you get a word right five times in a row, it'll turn it green in other sentences so you don't have to fill it out again for some time. It will also make sure you don't have to wait too long before seeing a word you got wrong again. Pretty smart!

A progress graph is always available to show you how well you know the words you are studying, and it gives you a percentage of completion so you always know how far you are from perfection.

The application can be purchased once and used on both iPad and iPhone. It even synchronizes your progress between devices using iCloud so you can go on the road with your iPhone and come back later and continue studying on your iPad.

Don't wait. Pick up this application today, and storm that upcoming JLPT exam for a price less than a quarter of most popular kanji books!

What’s New

Version 1.20

Changed hint system to give meaning of kanji and an example of another word it's used in instead of radicals.
After clicking on 'Check', you now have to 'Fix' any wrong kanji before you can continue. This forces you to draw the character correctly, or key in the correct pronuncation.

Brilliant concept.

Note: at the end of the day if you want to learn Japanese you have to write Japanese. The only issue is that it takes too long to load flash decks, even on a retina iPad mini — and, frustratingly, it stops my music every time it makes a sound.

Fantastic!

This app may not be great for beginners, but it's an awesome app for people who have some foundation with kanji and need writing and reading practice. I was so happy with the writing section. It makes sure you write in the correct stroke order or else you get it wrong, which was frustrating at first but now I appreciate how it's helping me learn the correct way. You can tap on the kanji you got wrong to see the correct stroke order and how the order you wrote in compares with the correct way. It also gives the kanji in sentences, so it helps with your translation and vocabulary skills as well. It's very well developed to help you learn correctly, which is important if you're studying on your own.

It was a little difficult to figure out how to get started at first, because you do need to go into the decks and select which levels you want to study (great for beginners who need the basics and great for advanced learners who don't want to start with the beginner kanji). You need to do this first before you can start.

Overall, I'm extremely pleased with my purchase!

Thanks for making this great app!

Hi, this app is just what I was looking for! It has really taken me a long time to find an app where I could practice writing and learning kanji at the same time as learning vocabulary and sentences. In this app you get to practice all of that by having a huge selection of nicely hand-written optionally translated sample sentences that have missing kanji characters based on the level of the ones you are trying to learn, with which you can either practice your writing or reading skills. There is an option for having furigana shown, and you are able to adjust the rate at which new characters are introduced, and will be able to learn kanji and vocabulary all the way from N5 to N1 at your desired speed.

The developer has been very helpful and responsive to feedback and has continued to improve the app. If you’re looking for a good way to improve your writing and reading Japanese skills, I highly recommend this app. After much time searching for and trying out different apps, it’s the best I’ve found and is worth every penny. It’s also a lot of fun to use and has an intuitive interface.

Thanks!
