Midori (Japanese Dictionary) Reviews

This app is fantastic

Cheunga22

Not only the best Japanese dictionary, but the best of any foreign language dictionary that I’ve found. UI is clean and easy to navigate. The flash card system is fantastic for learning vocabulary and the adaptive recall system is the perfect amount of functionality without bombarding you with endless options that you need to configure. Using the flash card system I was able to learn almost 1000 words in about a month, by simply reviewing the recommended cards for each day. Only thing that’s lacking - please make an equivalent app for Chinese! :)

Awesome App, happy they still update

I have had this app for over 8 years and is always my go to. While there had not been any “crazy new look” or “ special new pink elephant “ type updates, the app/dictionary keeps working well and I haven’t been charged for an update or forced into some useless subscription schemes so 5 stars from me.

The best Japanese dictionary app out there.

I feel like I need. to write another review for Midori. I’ve been using it for over 4yrs now and it has never disappointed. There are number of reasons I like it not the least of which is because I can look up words without clearing the search menu and it still separates and displays all the results. I also own another popular Japanese dictionary app “Japanese”, which I think it good, but I always go to Midori when doing some serous translations and tough Japanese reading. This app is definitely a must for serious Japanese learners!!! I’m not an employee for Midori, but I think you should invest in this app!

This is by far the Best Japanese dictionary app ever , i’ve learned so many Japanese words because of this

Still the best Japanese-English dictionary for iOS

This application continues to be the very best Japanese dictionary available on iOS. Stroke-order agnostic handwriting recognition, SKIP and radical search, among plenty of other features, all with a very clean interface that is easy to use.

Love this app

I use this every day and love how it’s so versatile. I wish there was an option to back up notes and settings or choose to export to iCloud or Google Drive. That would make it more awesome.

extremely helpful!

I love the bookmark function to be able to save words for later review. Conjugations for the win! Some of the example sentences are a little odd but help put in context how to use words grammatically. I would love to see antonyms as sometimes searches don’t net what you need without some digging. If you are studying Japanese this a great tool and works offline which is awesome.

Its good but quite inconvenient

Lucynnkm

Overall it’s good, it’s like a combination of Japanese and Imiwa. But it’s quite inconvenient because there is no option for an account. I get it that the users are able to save the words on the app on the device they’re using. But if I use both my phone and ipad, whenever I switch the device, I dont have any words to practice. Hopefully, this issue will be noticed and updated.

The Best

I've tried many free and paid Japanese dictionaries. Out of all of them, I'd say Midori is the best. Name dictionary, multiple options of display for information regarding kanji study systems, examples, and more.

Fantastic on so many levels

I’m in love with this app. Being able to draw a kanji in a dictionary is infinitely helpful. No more looking it up by strokes in a book. Best $10 I have ever spent as someone who is learning the language.
