Remembering the Kanji App Reviews

This app is useful, particularly in combination with other Japanese learning apps and the associated book. But it has some annoying (and likely easy to fix) limitations. Reasons for taking off two stars are: - only works in portrait mode, so it is very annoying to turn tablet around, when using in combination with other apps that can support either portrait or landscape - search mode is set to numbers, and cannot be defaulted to letters - since presumably is a companion to a book, why is it not

Pros- Organizes all 3 books by lesson Using writing as part of the flash card(and being able to compare it yourself as opposed to fighting with a writing AI) Cons- Setting up your own flash cards can’t be done from the kanji study itself and need to go into index No Heisig stories which are the core of the teaching style!!! Writing your own story can defeat the purpose because if you mislabel a primitive you can mess up learning other primaries and kanji.

A lot of help without having to create a couple thousand flash cards! PLEASE update the application with the latest version of the book though! There have been added Kanji and the numbering has changed! It's been a year since the last update! :(

Worth the money for me, but needs an update.

There could be more functionality around the flashcards like a true SRS. However, with the kanji keywords imported stories and stroke order animations, it is definitely staying on my iPhone 4S.

I love this app. Its so helpful. But, it'd be a lot more helpful if it had RTK 3 and an SRS system. Otherwise.. Great!!!

ありがとうございます。

I would prefer if the quizzes could keep track of in/correct answers instead of making the user input whether they were right or not.

Hi the app is a great tool for learning Kanji. Please update it to iOS6 and support the iPhone 5 resolution.

Great app! Works as advertised. Future improvements can include games.

This app does most everything I want now that there are multiple ways to search kanji: keyword, ON & KUN. This last update was a big deal.

The only thing this app lacks is SRS. Beautifully done. Compatible with IPhone 5 and latest edition of Heisig book 1. Remember to change book edition in settings. This app is a bargain for what you get.

The linear SRS (testing capability) was unfortunately removed with this update, which is really frustrating. Hopefully there will be an update soon!

It would be great to have a button in the card to remove it from the active study list, once I'm sure to know it well. That would successively reduce my study list to those cards which need more repetition.

Great tool. Own this and the book. Wish it had a spared repetition system (SRS) built in but I use Memrise and Anki for that. This app serves as a great reference. Plus it's another way to support Heisig.

It has the primitives for all of the kanji. The flash cards and study list option is fantastic for reinforcing and retention. Great app - would use again. 11/10

Great app. But hopefully there will be function to highlight words in story frame with italic or bold (the way web version does)

This is a good app for a good book. FYI, there is a switch in the configuration menu to switch between 5th and 6th editions.

This would be a five-star rating if my custom study lists were not continually deleted after updates.

Like others have said, this is a great app and a necessary companion to the book. It's incredibly useful. However, the last two updates have deleted all of my study lists. That is *not* acceptable.

It’s very annoying that search brings up the numeric keyboard when I literally never search by number. It should default to alphabetical so I can check kanjis by name easily.

Great companion to the book, supports versions 5 and 6 of the book. On Apple, the backup crashes every time, so only 4 stars. I have to screen capture to back up my progress.

I wish you could sync it with the online version! I have to start all over again- waste of $10!!!

Why is SRS linear testing still gone??? That was version 1.00's eat feature for studying kanji!!! It's nice to know that kanji to text has been restored but please bring back the testing function!!! That would make this app a five star!
