Features & Capabilities

WaniKanify 2.0 is a Chrome extension designed to reinforce your WaniKani vocabulary by substituting English words on webpages with their corresponding kanji characters. By integrating your WaniKani public API key, the extension dynamically replaces known words as you browse, helping you practice and recall kanji in real-life contexts. This experimental tool supports reading in Japanese by making kanji more visible on the web, enhancing your language learning immersion.

Installation is simple: add your WaniKani API key on the options page after installing the extension. Then, as you browse your favorite websites, activate the extension to see English words replaced with kanji you've learned. It’s a helpful utility for learners aiming to strengthen kanji recognition and recall. The project is open source and still undergoing testing, with an active community for support and updates.

I don't know why, but it doesn't seem to work for me. (Yes: It got an API) Found out the issue. I needed to change the setting of the add-on to automatic:)

Is WaniKanify 2.0 Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

WaniKanify 2.0 requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
