I've spent about three hours with this app just playing around. Throughout this time I've learned about 50 kanji and even payed the extra 7.99 to unlock the rest of the app. I find this app to be quite nice. I've lost myself in it twice just going over its vast collection of kanji and how there broken down. The only real issue I have with the app is the flash card section, on every page it explains what a flash card is which takes up half the screen which I found a bit distracting. Overall though this app has been helpful, ill continue to use it and if I get through all the kanji ill write another review.


Excellent App!!

I love this app. So great for learning characters! One request: I would like to see the pinyin with the character. I'd like the option of matching pinyin and Hanzi. Not just Hanzi and English. Also, could you make the text a tiny bit larger so that I can read the tone marks? My eyes aren't what they used to be! :)


Nice, but a little difficult

I like the set up. I would like it if there was actual pronunciation of the kanji. Not just the English equivalent.


Great!!

It's really useful for learn kanji and especially their meanings. The only problem I have with it is in the mode where you are supposed to put what the kanji is made up of sometimes you'll get two of the same options and one of them will be wrong. For example I've gotten two ones before as answers and one of the ones was incorrect.


I love it!

I love this app, everything is there!!! Reading, words, radicals. I make up a little story with the radicals to remember. I wish there was a way to make your own list though.


Great app!!!

This app is wonderful and super helpful memorizing the kanji. I love how it keeps track of everything and the different games you can play. Definitely worth purchasing the full version! One thing I think it could improve in to make this app even better would be example sentences of how the kanji is applied in context.

Pros: •algorithms that suit the user's specifics needs and priorities •decent interface •easily navigable •most commonly used kanji Cons: •the anime girl on the cover (I have nothing against anime and I actually enjoy it occasionally but in this case it seems like the app is targeting 14-year-old weeaboos, and that's kind of embarrassing) •little to no focus on the PRONUNCIATIONS of the symbols, which is essential in understanding them (past just visual recognition) •no explanation of why symbols may have several different pronunciations (onyomi, kunyomi) •not everyone is willing to pay eight dollars for the full app (however, in context, eight dollars is VERY inexpensive compared to other means of learning kanji) Based on these aspects (and a few more I didn't have time to list), it almost seems like the cons outweigh the pros. However, since I do enjoy the app in its intent, I still gave it three stars.


Love it

Learned a lot and there's a lot of different activities so I don't get bored with one style of learning. Solid App.


Thanks
