Perfect

I was hesitant to jump right into the kanji learning app for that price, but this app is perfect, and so is the price. It is perfect for studying kana. I chose ten kana first, practiced then tested on those, then add five more each time. The interface is smooth and it really is quite lovely. You can turn on a feature in practice mode that automatically moves it forward a kana when you do it correctly a number of times... Up to twenty! It really is brilliant. I know some Japanese but decided to learn all the kana and some kanji before learning anymore. This is perfection.
Excellent

Great app for practicing Kana and drilling to keep skills up. Different test modes keep things different. Keep up the good work!
Awesome

If you really want to learn hiragana and katakana this app definitely provides the best method to learn. The only down side is that the app does not recognize the accuracy of what you write in practice mode and leaves you to determine how well you did. Test mode is great exactly what I was looking for in an app like this. The app could definitely be more refined but for what it offers at the price you can't go wrong.
Bad Update!!!

The redesign has made some very stupid changes and taken away useful features! First off I miss the old interface and the "black and orange " option does not put it all back. When you typing during text modes the text is light gray on white which makes it almost impossible to see what you're typing in! But that's not the worst. New katakana is added which is GREAT but when you go to practice mode you have to SCROLL to see the full character. That's pretty useless considering you need to learn the full character together, not in parts. I like the additions but HATE how functionality and the display which I was very used to learning on has been taken away. Please at least give back the option to write combined characters without scrolling!
Unique works

Practice writing hiragana and katakana with touch screen. You can select sections of the alphabet and practice and then test yourself. This is an amazing app that works. Ive tried to learn stuff like this in the past but it feels much easier and faster with this.
Perfect for learning Katakana and Hiragana

Outstanding app. It’s easy to use, allows you to draw the kana and the compare what you draw to the stylized and handwritten versions. Perfect for learning.
Great App, Wonderful Support!?

After running into a few major issues one of the developer's other apps (which ended up being the fault of my device ) and emailing the developer I received immediate support. This app itself is smooth, simple, and fantastic for learning to write the kana. The app is all about utility and it performs! There is a huge amount of content and many ways to test yourself and learn. The most unique and helpful feature that it offers is the ability to grade your own writing and stroke order in a step by step manner. There is no automatic writing detector to be picky and mark you wrong because the angle was "slightly off". This app makes studying and learning Japanese a breeze! It is an absolute must have for any learner! Thank you Jan for bringing this helpful tool to life! I don't have a single regret in purchasing this app and it's upgrade!

Ideally I could practice while leaving a chat or important page open on the side of the screen.
A well-designed and -implemented app

I am enjoying my initial experience having just drilled my 1st ten characters. There is a bit of a learning curve in understanding all the functionalities available. It's not entirely clear within the app what certain settings are for, however to the developer's credit there is excellent documentation at the provided link in the info section. Overall it provides a powerful approach to learning the Japanese characters. A few things I'd appreciate: - mixed test mode where it varies the question formats to stimulate learning in different ways and to keep things fresh - intelligent adding of characters to practice then test sessions as one's test results improve (as it stands one must manually set which characters to work on)
