Really like app! Super simple to use and decent free version before you have to pay. Really like it as a review for myself. One thing I will say is that the Kanji section seems to just be repeats of the same kanji on all the puzzles, which is kinda a bummer. Other than that it’s awesome!

Hi so I bought the renshuu pro subscription and recently went onto the J crosswords app to see if I had unlocked more puzzles but it won’t show up. The renshuu app opened up a bunch of access for my current level (N5) but the J crosswords app doesn’t appear to be syncing properly?

This is one of my favorite apps for learning Japanese (and believe me, I’ve tried a lot or them)! There’s a ton of value with the free version, but the paid version is like $3 and you get puzzles with vocab, not only sorted by level (N5, N4, etc), but also by textbook (and further sorted by chapter!) The crossword format is a novel concept and makes it fun to do vocabulary drills. If you can’t tell already, I highly recommend this app for anyone learning Japanese, and especially for those learning via the popular textbooks! 👏
