## Description

Every hack, dish and phrase is stored in the app — it works the moment you land, with no signal. One payment unlocks everything, forever.

Japan Hacks is an offline guide for the small things that trip up visitors to Japan.

Not what to see — what to do when you are standing there. How to order at a ramen counter. Which side of the escalator to stand on. Why the cashier is waiting for you to press something. What the unordered dish on your izakaya table is, and why it is on the bill.

EVERYTHING WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL
All 217 topics, 400+ local dishes and 263 phrases are stored in the app. It works the same the moment you land, underground, or on the plane.

217 THINGS WORTH KNOWING
Grouped by category, or by the moment you are in — arriving, boarding a train, entering a shop, a public bath, shopping, walking around, staying the night, and when something goes wrong. Each one is laid out as clear do's and don'ts, not an essay.

400+ LOCAL DISHES ACROSS ALL 47 PREFECTURES
What the region is known for, why it became a speciality, roughly what it costs, and the shops known for it. Tap a dish name to see photos of it.

263 JAPANESE PHRASES, GROUPED BY SITUATION
With audio, romaji, and a large "show this to staff" card for when speaking is not working. Plus casual expressions, so you can follow what you hear.

TOOLS THAT WORK OFFLINE
Currency math, the tax-free threshold, trash sorting, size conversions, an emergency card in Japanese, and a packing checklist you can edit.

SEVEN LANGUAGES
English, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese. Switch instantly from any screen — no need to change your device language.

FREE, ALWAYS
Emergency numbers and the cards to show in Japanese. Words for illness and hospitals. How to explain allergies and dietary limits. Safety topics like earthquakes and typhoons. We do not put anything about your safety or health behind a payment.

Premium unlocks the rest — one payment, not a subscription.

No account. No tracking. Nothing is uploaded. Photos you add stay on your device.
