Sync for NHK Easy News

IMPORTANT UPDATE

Sadly, NHK has decided to end support for accessing Easy News from outside of their website. They now require agreeing to access their website from inside of Japan and articles are not available otherwise. This is not something I can work around without violating terms of service.

This is the end of Sync for NHK Easy News. I will leave the app on the store for a bit longer, but it will be removed unless NHK opens access again.

I'm grateful to NHK for allowing access for as long as they did. Their translators work hard every day providing this useful resource. For now, it's still possible to access News Web Easy directly from their website, so please visit directly in a browser if you would like to continue reading NHK Easy articles.

----------

Sync for NHK Easy News is a free and simple app for reading Japanese news articles from NHK News Web Easy. The articles are a great resource for learning upper-beginner to intermediate level Japanese using real-world content.

* Completely free with no ads and no tracking
* Always syncs articles and images for offline reading
* Tap on kanji to get English translations from a built-in offline dictionary
* Practice kanji by turning off furigana for words you already know
* Listen to Japanese spoken readings of the articles

I made this app as a side project to practice Japanese during my commute. It will always remain free as an educational tool. If you encounter any issues feel free to reach out.
