The best dictionary app. easy to use, the example sentences are good (not overly complicated), nice color palette and it also has a studying sections with flashcards, where you can make your own lists or study from pre made sets. I haven't used it in its entirety yet but it's already a five stars app. also, there are no ads so it's even better. thank you for making such great app. To the developer: please add a link so that people can donate and support your work

One of the greatest, most feature-packed and easy to use Japanese dictionary apps I've ever used, and I've been using them since the days of electronic translators that use EPWING files. 😉 Highly recommended for serious students of the world's most logical, beautiful language.
