KanaPractice - Study Kana

Learn to read Japanese kana with a system that adapts to what you know. Free to start — upgrade to Pro for katakana, voiced kana, and 7,000+ words.

Hiragana and katakana are the foundation of Japanese reading — and KanaPractice teaches you both, one character at a time.

Spaced repetition tracks every character individually, showing you what you need to review and when. The more you practice, the smarter it gets.

Two ways to practice:

• Recognition — see a kana character, type the reading.
• Production — see a romaji reading, choose the right character. Both directions are tracked separately, because mastering kana requires both.

Word reading Move beyond individual characters. Practice reading real Japanese vocabulary — greetings, common verbs, everyday nouns — written entirely in kana.

Four mastery levels Every character has a mastery level based on your history: New, Practicing, Learning, or Mastered. You always know where you stand.

Reference charts and dictionary Full hiragana and katakana charts with mastery indicators. A searchable dictionary of 7,000+ kana words. Look anything up, tap to practice it.

KanaPractice Pro The free tier covers all of hiragana basics — 46 characters and 200 common words, fully unlocked. Pro adds katakana, voiced and combo kana, the full word library, and deeper stats.
