Learn Japanese

Super easy to use! It’s also very straightforward and cute💕

This is a great app but I’m surprised to see errors periodically. I’m wondering if users are not bringing them to the developer’s attention, or the developer is not as interested in quality control as perhaps they should be. Overall it’s a fantastic app for learning Japanese but the occasional mistakes do not inspire 100% confidence.

Helps a ton with the basics if you wanna get off the ground for learning basic Japanese writing.

Best app to learn japanese word

It’s educational at best

I was early adopter of the Bunpo app and had high hopes for this app, it’s okay but there’s a lot to be fixed, the app crashes during review, I wish there was an option to reset progress as well because I feel like having the kana in my reviews at this point is just a waste of time. The app has huge potential with just a few fixes. I don’t know if they’ll ever fix them , it doesn’t seem like they update this app much anymore

I have been learning Japanese for about half a year and gotten almost nowhere, but this app makes it so much easier. I find the review cards and the helpful memorizing tips helpful and always always being able to go back and review the flash cards. The section for basics is actually beginner friendly with katakana,hirigana, and even some kanji at the very beginning. Something that is mostly avoided by apps like dualingo until several units in making it seem like a challenge instead of a tool. But even with apps to help you if you don’t actually learn the culture and look deeper into meanings than real life practice will be a crash course.

I love how the words are organized by categories. I also love the interactive memorization system. Simple and effective.

The app itself is wonderful and helps to learn vocabulary, however I have found it impossible to complete any lesson. Each lesson is broken down into parts, first teaching you the words, then defining them in a multiple choice quiz, then choosing the correct readings (also multiple choice), then typing, and finally matching pairs. The app works perfectly fine for every section EXCEPT for the typing. For some reason, as soon as the typing section begins, the screen drops down halfway and only shows the top half of the screen. This still allows me to type my answers, but it makes the final section impossible, because half the answers are hidden below the screen. This is a very nice app, but it is unfortunately ruined by this one bug. I’m not sure if anyone else has this issue, or if it is just me because I am using an iPad, but I hope it can be resolved quickly so I can fully appreciate the app. Thanks.

Update: In addition to all the other bugs I mentioned, now my review is broken and I’m not being shown over half the lessons I’ve done for review. Such a shame this app is completely abandoned. Let me start with the positives. This app is one of the best resources for learning Japanese vocabulary that I’ve found in my nearly 10 years of study. It has a robust vocabulary list and flash cards that effectively teach kanji, meaning, and the reading. Lessons are appropriately sized and never feel overwhelming. BUT this is all ruined by the app’s many many bugs. Multiple lessons can’t be completed because answer options won’t show up, my phone vibrates nonstop every time I have to type in Japanese, some reviews will freeze and you have to close the app and reopen it. I really really want to love this app just like I love Bunpo but these “game breaking” bugs need to be fixed before I can.
