8 of 25IN LOVE— SO GOOD FOR STUDYING AND SIMPLE TO USE, ALSO NO COSTS AND ADS — highly recommend!!!!
Speech function just doesn’t work anymore. It used to sound robotic, but now, it gives a warning that it’ll sound robotic, but just doesn’t work; I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling again and it STILL doesn’t work. The other functions are great, but without the speech, it feels incomplete. I’ve contacted support and changed my live speech voice settings, and that didn’t help, so I can’t speak to if changing that improved the voice, because now I hear nothing.
I have been learning Japanese since 2022 and I downloaded this app and helped me memorize and learn new words each day which really gives my brain a workout. It’s also useful for learning to write and study JLPT levels. I’m currently in N4 almost N3 I think.
with all the study methods you have to pay for, this specifc study app is not only entirely free, but is one of the best tools I've been able to add to my studying tools. As someone who has jumped from study app to study app, this app has done wonders for my memorization of key components of japanese. NOTE: I'd still reccomend using other methods alongside this one, but don't underestimate this app, its heavily effective if used properly.
i think it’s a really good app to practice your writing and memorization!!! one of my favorites!!
Mostly good. Kanji handwriting recognition is awful. Wish we could load custom dictionary files.
I have been using this app for around 12 years and nothing else can compare to it. It's such a vital part of my everyday life and I could not imagine trying to learn Japanese without it. It's an absolute MUST get for anybody that is studying the language, and I urge all my friends who are just getting into learning Japanese to get this app. I absolutely cannot recommend it enough.
More than a dictionary is indeed true! The extensive dictionary based on topic is awesome. The practice cards are wonderful to use while sitting on a train while traveling in Japan.
