User Reviews

The way the app tests writing input is it actually doesn’t. It just gives you a notepad to draw on, then you can reveal the stroke order, then you yourself decide whether you were correct or not. “Learn Japanese! - Kanji” by Luli Languages LLC is a much better app as it corrects your stroke order in real time. I do not recommend trying this app as the App Store/developer does not offer refunds so there is no trial period to decide whether this app fits a user’s needs.

I can’t just memorize kanji by looking at them. For me, I needed an app that taught me how to write them - it’s the only way I could really learn them. So far, I’ve made it through the N5 and N4 sets (284 total). Best way to use this tool is to go to Settings/Test Set and set the range to 20 characters at a time. As I then test myself every day, and start consistently getting 100%, I move the range from “86-105” to “91-110” (for example). That way I’m introducing a small amount of new material and reinforcing the old. I recommend this app to everyone I know who is learning Japanese!

Maybe it was good at the time it was developed over 10 years ago or if it was free. I got this app because of the option to take a test by drawing the kanji to answer instead of typing. However, when you submit your answer it has you push the next stroke button to compare yours to theirs and then you decide if you got it right or not. This too too long even with the most simple kanji and can only imagine the pain it’ll be when doing the 10+ kanji. Considering it’s paid and the Japanese learning innovation these days from other websites and apps, I would have at least expected it to tell me if I got the answer wrong and try again. I would happily change my review if it improved and it helped my study, but at this point I feel I’m better off looking at an image of kanji stroke order and using paper and pencil
