Ratings and reviews

Probably the best set of language videos I've seen. Really helps the kana stick. I'd recommend doing one video per day from this before moving on to general language another app like Duolingo. My only complaint is that for some reason the videos can't be viewed in landscape mode. They're clearly made for it, and you can see everything on them just fine, but nothing happens when you turn your phone sideways.

At first I was skeptical, but this truly was useful! This app is little more than a collection of short videos, but it was very helpful and very well explained. The editing could use some improvement, but the videos, tips and memory tricks are pretty helpful! While the app's meant for watching it in one go, the videos are divided in short bursts, and I could learn in "dead time" such as being on the bus or waiting for something. I highly recommend this app when you're barely starting.

Easily the best app to learn hiragana. Made it really easy for me and my son to remember and able to read. Also has a podcast Japanese Made Easy and so far it's making me build sentences better.
