Users appreciate WordBit Japanese for its unique approach to vocabulary learning and daily new words, which help improve Japanese skills especially for serious learners. However, multiple reviews criticize the app's intrusive behavior, such as forcing itself on the lock screen and disabling alarms, along with frequent ads without an option to remove them. The interface is seen as cluttered and the grammar lessons disorganized with inaccurate translations. Lack of key features and infrequent updates are also concerns. Overall, users see potential but find the intrusive notifications and interface issues frustrating.

- Effective for vocabulary memorization and improving Japanese language skills.
- Offers new words daily, helping users to constantly expand their vocabulary.
- Well thought-out and useful tool for serious language learners.
- Allows for adjustable learning levels, including basic Japanese N5 words.
Cons
- Annoying and intrusive ads with no clear option to remove them or purchase an ad-free version.
- App frequently forces itself onto the screen or runs in the background without user consent, including appearing over the lock screen and disabling alarms.
- Poor user interface with clutter, confusing grammar lessons, and mismatched or inaccurate translations.
- Lack of essential features such as the ability to easily review or export labeled words and the automatic play of sounds.
- App seems to have few updates, which raises concerns about ongoing development and feature improvements.

| 2025-01-19 |  | | 4 star for now since I don't know how to get rid of the ads. |
| 2025-01-11 |  | | Very good I have nothing to say, see for yourself |
| 2025-01-03 |  | | Great app for remember |
| 2024-12-28 |  | | New wave of words everyday is fine but no option (like a one time purchase) to remove the ads showing every single freak9ng time makes me consider deleting it soon. Also, no easy way to review / export the labeled words makes the labels (unknown, dont know, known) almost useless. Also i haven't seen an update in 2 months. I wonder if this will go beyond tge ad money grab it seems to be. To sump up: a cool idea and potential but in an unfinished state |
| 2024-11-13 |  | | This app is perfect for anyone serious about learning a language quickly. Even if it means getting slightly annoyed every time I pick up my phone, it's worth it. I hope it continues to evolve and offer more languages in the future. |
| 2024-10-18 |  | | Fun at first, but when I tried to turn it off it suddenly started popping up whenever I closed the lock screen. I removed all permissions(including setting the app to deep sleep) because I wanted to use the app later. But still the notification appears when I close lock screen. I even tried data backup but nothing happens, just blank screen. So I now have removed the app and lose all my progress. Very frustrating, they broke all the rules. |
| 2024-10-11 |  | | Very unique app. Works best for procrastinators 😂 |
| 2024-10-06 |  | | Once installed it has an annoying habit of forcing its way back onto the screen even after turning the app off. I prefer apps I can control rather than apps that try to control me. Uninstalled immediately. |
| 2024-10-06 |  | | I downloaded this app after seeing an ad. It locked down my phone until I gave it access to my data (I couldn't even turn off my morning alarm) and after one single kanji asked me to pay money to advance even though there were ads. DO NOT DOWNLOAD. |
