Your 字書p Advanced is great. (And a great pun too.) Just the right thing for someone who was used to using Nelson. :-)

Although the app is functional, at least on a base level, it is prone to frequent crashes, particularly when attempting to illustrate Kanji characters. Unfortunately, I must say that this needs more development before I am willing to buy the full version.

...because it takes kanji to pieces, and that's the easiest way for me to learn them. I upgraded to the full version, and wasn't sorry-it's a fantastic learning tool. I especially like the fact that I can save kanji into custom lists and review them at my leisure.
