User Reviews

Users praise Learn Japanese Kanji: Benkyō for its breadth of kanji with kana, stroke order, and handwriting practice, plus a free, ad-free experience and JLPT-ordered content. The interface is clean and quizzes are engaging. However, recurring issues include laggy performance, crashes and unsaved progress, occasional quiz data errors, and missing cross-device sync and other features like sharing lists and a guided curriculum.

Pros

Free to use with lots of resources and no ads in the free version
Comprehensive kanji learning with stroke orders and handwriting recognition
JLPT-ordered kanji with pronunciations and example words/phrases
Clean, easy-to-use interface with effective flashcard quizzes
Widget available for quick review

Cons

Slow, laggy UI and performance issues; the app can feel sluggish
Crashes during writing practice and failures to save progress or keep lists
Content accuracy issues in quizzes (some kanji/meanings are incorrect)
No reliable cross-device sync; progress and lists do not sync across devices
Curriculum organization/mapping is lacking and onboarding can be confusing; missing features like sharing lists

i haven’t found anything better yet but i’m def looking. There’s so much unnecessary bloat of ai ‘features’ that drive the price stupid high. And now there’s a timer for how many of the non-ai quizzes you can do?
