Learn japanese: Kana - AnkiJap 4+

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 😭

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

I went though a lot of free Japanese apps while trying to learn hiragana and katakana. This one was the best quality I found, and it is free! The ability to customize quizzes, daily notifications, and especially the adjustable and customizable difficulty levels, are all awesome. I feel that the difficulty level adjustment was the boost I needed to really start memorizing, not just guessing. I thought that I would never be able to memorize all the exact strokes for the characters, so for a long time I left the Handwriting mode disabled. I was totally wrong! With the help of this app I am now able to read and write 100% of the characters in both sets. Kudos to the dev(s) for an amazing app, with a great look and feel and an excellent experience overall!
