User reviews

I love it! I recently did a reset of my WaniKani progress (Was level 8-10, or somewhere around there) so I am at the beginner stages for vocab and kanji. This is really nice for immersion purposes. Total immersion is great and all but sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming when you are viewing a page and focus entirely on the vast majority of kanji and vocab you don't know. This app seems like a great way to more quickly focus on the kanji you know, so you can than branch out from there and read text with a little more ease. Or at the very least translate based on the context of the sentence using some vocab you know.

This is super easy to use and understand! Helps me apply my Japanese skills so I can see what I already know :)
