I really enjoy the Japanese Flip app. It's one of my favorite and most used applications. I took Japanese in high school but my vocabulary has easily tripled because of this app. It's a must buy The only things I think are missing is the ability to modify existing words and greater flexibility with added words.

I've been waiting for the update for the 5-level system (N1-N5) for a long time...

I have been studying Japanese for over 20 years. Over time I have acquired a lot of Kanji learning paraphernalia, in physical form such as flash card sets, and software apps for desktop and mobile. This application has been the most effective for me in learning, and more importantly, remembering kanji and Japanese words. The learning structure is simple and effective. Just exactly the right amount of information is revealed when it is needed to test you thoroughly. You do need fluency in kana however. The intelligent re-testing based on your strengths and weaknesses is optimal. It works much better than other formats such as multiple-choice. As a mobile app it is perfect for staying proficient anytime, anywhere you have a spare moment. The fonts used are brilliant and clear - essential for learning to recognize complicated kanji. Finally the dictionary content included is accurate and relevant. While other apps might have more bells and whistles, such as showing stroke animations, practicing the writing of kanji, fully editable lesson files, speech output, etc. etc., this app achieves what it sets out to do: learn Japanese words quickly. Even if you use it for only a few minutes per day your vocabulary will increase. I was amazed at the results. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

I use this with chalkboard (another app) to review and learn new kanji. I would rate this as one of the best values in learning tools I have found in many years of studying Japanese.

I love this app! It allows me to review Japanese vocab during even the smallest chunks of free time. The app is easy to use and offers a good selection of vocab. I would defiantly recommend this to anyone looking for a simply way to review Japanese.

Retina displays have been around for a year and a half, and for an app to not have been updated accordingly is a huge turn-off. Any even mediocre designer could design high def icons for the entire app in… no more than a few hours. Sticky Study Japanese is light years ahead.

I am an advanced Japanese learner and I was getting frustrated with all the apps for beginners. Well this app would be great for any level learner. This is the first review I have ever written bc this is the first app I've found deserving one. Simple yet (or therefore) effective.

I have been using this app for several years, and have gone from knowing very few kanji to knowing almost 3000 with just a few minutes each day. Every student of Japanese that I show it to embraces it enthusiastically. The algorithm it uses for determining when to show you new kanji, or to revisit kanji you've already learned is the most effective I've encountered in flip-card programs.

This is a fantastic tool for vocabulary and kanji memorization. Like previous users, I was already had an intermediate comprehension of Japanese, and was looking for a way to study rather than an introduction to the language. This app is really perfect for that! I find myself using it whenever I have a few minutes, and I've learned a lot from it. It's fun, too! One suggestion: Add the option of studying from English to Japanese as well!

This app does not work in iOS 8. Has been abandoned by developer; no response to emails. It freezes when trying to reset score ever since iOS 8 update. A real shame since I have used this app almost daily for years until the iOS 8 release.
