User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★★Does what it’s supposed to
This app isn’t the prettiest, and it isn’t even optimized for iPhone X-like devices, but it gets the job done. Super helpful for reviewing kana!
I’m just beginning my Japanese studies and this app (and its website) are great for making sure you’ve got a good grasp of Hiragana and Katakana.
★★☆☆☆Some incorrect combination hiragana
In usage, the dzyo, dzya, etc were incorrectly labeled as jo, ja, etc.
I will return for refund towards correct resource
★★☆☆☆Will be much more useful if it supported iPad and had an onboarding
Was very disappointed when I was recommended this app and had to consult YouTube for instructions. Onboarding should be in an app, or the app should be designed such that it’s self explanatory and no documentation needs to be consulted; especially one that is iOS-only.
Then I found that the app doesn’t support iPad which is where I do much of my Japanese study. It runs, but only in portrait mode.
One star for being iOS only, and one star for being useful on the iPhone after consulting docume
★★☆☆☆Is there audio for this app?
On the description, it stated native pronunciation and silly me for thinking there’s audio pronunciation instead of just romaji. Not sure how that’s gonna help with pronunciation when there’s no audio help. Or am I missing something? Waste of money.
★★★☆☆Keyboard disappears
I like the app but every time I change app or lock the phone and then I reopen the app, the keyboard becomes invisible: I can still type but I can’t see any character so I need to start again my session
