Ratings and reviews

Super Smart, Easy and CLEAN. I paid for the premium version within TEN seconds. You'd think that there would be PLENTY of "great" Katakana apps available in the Play Store..right? RIGHT? WRONG! I mean we're talking ABC's here...it shouldn't be difficult to make Flash ABC's...how bad? From ZERO settings (only ON/OFF), to crazy bad eye killing colors, to being overly complicated, (I just want to learn ABC's!!) to bad interface/controls. This is the ONLY App that got EVERYTHING right. The ONLY ONE.

I'm glad to see it's working again! For the past couple weeks I wasn't using it because it wouldn't let me hit the back button in the upper right hand corner so my progress never got saved. Now that it works again I will happily use it! In terms of design, I like both versions you made. The original colorful one and the black edition. Very cool!

Katakana Pro and Hiragana Pro are brilliant apps. I was pretty rusty but these brought me well up to speed. I feel like they'd be great for absolute beginners as well with the visual and verbal aspects as well as the repetition. Well worth the $1 upgrade I might add. My only wish is that there was a drawing option in addition to the multiple choice and keyboard, but maybe some day 😁
