- Some reviews note a lack of updates or compatibility with newer Android versions
Recent reviews
Ridiculously good. Simple, but plenty of features when you look a little further. Love the detail on kanjis, where you can click the 3 dots and find a list of words that use the kanji, or a decomposition of the kanji into its components/radicals
