User Reviews

Quite literally everything I wanted in an app for reading Japanese. Simple one tap to look up words without having to fiddle with highlighting. Love it.

It has everything you need. The mobile Anki integration is perfect. It's exactly what I would have built for myself, but better - and now I don't have to! Really can't recommend this app enough, seriously impressed. Great job.
