GENKI Kanji Cards for 2nd Ed.

If you have a few extra dollars and are having trouble learning the kanji, i think this is a great option. You can practice either the Japanese or English readings, it includes an animation for the stroke order of each kanji, and there are also mnemonics for each character. It includes all the kanji from both Genki books. I highly recommend writing all the kanji from each flash card while thinking about the meaning and repeating the pronunciation out loud as your using the app. I just finished all the kanji from Genki 2, and I’m already missing this app, it is just so useful. :)

It’s modular prebuilt flash card system is exactly what I need

It’s not working with the new iOS update :(

There are one thing this app is missing and I would’ve given it five stars. It’s too quiet! Like the Vocab app, I thought that this one would have audio as well. I think that having audio samples along with its hiragana pronunciation would really help people who learn aurally.

Great tool to memorize kanji. Would be much better if you could use it on iPad and use the pencil for handwriting practice

A little misleading, I thought there would an option to draw the kanji in the app, there isn’t. The user interface is also pretty horrendous.

This is a great app to use in hand with the textbook. Gives you the stroke orders and pictures to remember the kanji. My only con is when you click the play button to learn the strokes, it turns off your music -_- very annoying.

Please correct this error.

For learning the on-yomi and kun-yomi reading of the kanji, this is a great app. I learned a lot of kanji compound words using this great app. It really extended my vocabulary beyong the textbook. I do wish that the app contains audio recording of each compoung words. This is great for preparting JLPT N4 and N5. Thank you so much.

At the menu page of this Genji Kanji app, you get to choose a lesson, starting with Lesson 3. If you try to scroll up to Lesson 1 or 2, you see the message “Start by mastering the words in Set 1 and 2. Genki Lessons 1 & 2 contain no kanji to be learned.” I tried everything but could never access Lessons 1 & 2, or the words in Set 1 and 2. Oh well. Let’s start with Lesson 3 then. It is divided into Set 1, 2, 3 and 4, but 3 and 4 are greyed out. I will click on Set 1 which becomes highlighted. Nothing else happens. At the top of the screen are two buttons: Kanji and Reading. Let’s click on Kanji. Still nothing happens. At the bottom of the screen are two buttons: My Deck and Check. Let’s click on My Deck. Now I see a blank box at the top of the screen. In the middle of the screen is the word “one.” At the bottom of the screen is the word いち。 There are two ways that I can interact with this screen. If I touch the blank box, the kanji character for “one” appears in the box. So what? I haven’t learned anything by doing this. On the other hand, if I click on a button at the bottom of the screen, showing a circle in an arrow configuration, again I see the kanji for “one.” Again, I haven’t learned anything. At the top of the screen are three pronunciations for “one”: いち、いっ、ひと。If I click on them, nothing happens. At the bottom of the screen are two icons. One looks like a deck of cards. If I click on it, a “mnemonic hint” appears on the screen consisting of a fat index finger protruding from a hand. This is the way that I am supposed to remember “one." The second icon at the bottom of the screen looks like a brush. If I click on this, I come to a screen titled Stroke Order, which shows a horizontal line in the middle. If I click on the Play button at the bottom of this screen, the software draws the line from left to right. I still haven’t learned anything. OK. Let’s go back to the first screen, where Lesson 3, Set 1 is still highlighted. This time, instead of clicking MyDeck, I will click Check, the only other choice. This takes me to a screen called "Remember the kanji?" In the middle of this screen is a word consisting of two kanji. There are furigana at the top of these kanji, but the one on the right is represented by an empty box. The kanji on the left is し, and the one on the right (which is hidden) is かい, judging from the furigana above the box. If I click on the empty box, the kanji かい magically appears. So what? I stil
