Love this app. Been using it for a couple years now and like how it provides the different readings, as well as useful examples. I would love to see a save option for kanji I find myself coming back to but often forget. :)

I really want to like this app. It’s well made. It includes useful kanji. It details stroke order, which is what I was looking for when I found this app, and it’s flash card design is very useful for review and memorization.
But the ads make it unusable. I hate to be the person to complain about ads—I don’t mind that there’s ads on a free app. It becomes a problem, however, when the ads not only come up every 10 seconds or so but when they’re also designed to be unclose-able.
I’ve gotten multiple ads which have their exit hidden behind the phone’s status bar, making it impossible to navigate back to the app itself without clicking on the ad or manually closing the app. To make it worse: clicking the ad doesn’t even close it in the app! It opens up in the App Store, but when you navigate back to the kanji app the ad is still there and still unable to be closed. So anytime you get one of these ads, you have to force close the app and then you lose all of your progress/lose your spot when you relaunch the app. :(
To the devs of this app: I recognize that you didn’t design the ads that show up on your app, and I’m honestly not sure how much control you get over which ones you’re partnered with/which ones show up, but as it stands the ads make this unusable. :( If it matters and you do have a choice in the matter, a few of the ads I notice consistently doing this are: Homescapes and Fishdom—so probably any ads by Playrix.
It’s impossible to use this app if I have to manually close it every minute or so, lose my spot within the app, and then navigate back to wherever I was.... sometimes getting an ad while I navigate, setting this process back to the start!
I can’t add pictures to a review, but I have screenshots showing this issue.
I’m disappointed. I really, really wanted to like and use this app.

The only thing missing is the ability to make custom kanji lists to study.
