Ratings and reviews

This app is absolutely great for studying kanji. Not only does it let you test by writing (its forgiving enough that wonky finger phone writing is recognized) but it'll even let you know if your stroke order or direction is wrong! The ads, at least in my experience, are unobtrusive banner ads, no loud, in-your-face pop-ups that I've had to tap or swipe away in the middle of studying, which is a welcome change of pace from many other free JP learning apps I've tried!

Great app -- love the handwriting practice. The handwriting is still in beta so it's a little overly strict sometimes, but overall it's great. One feature that I'd love is a speed reading practice -- perhaps have it flash words 1 kana at a time at a set pace, and then have you type it. Speeding up until you are reading words/sentences pretty quickly. I think it'd also be great to have a version of the handwriting with where you only hear audio instead of seeing it. Thank you devs :)

Really great app with one really annoying issue - when I'm on a vocabulary list and turn off my screen, it returns to the top of the list when I wake my phone back up. This is far more infuriating than it might sound. Every other app on the planet seems to be able to remember scroll positions so why can't this one?
