About this app

Learn Japanese the way students in Japan do: by writing it, stroke by stroke.

Doriru is named after ドリル, the drill workbooks Japanese students practice kanji in. Tell it where you are and it lays out a path of small, clear steps, from your first hiragana to N1 kanji. Ten minutes a day is enough to start.

WRITE EVERY CHARACTER
• Animated stroke-order guides for kana and kanji
• Practice grids with center guides, like a Japanese drill book
• With a stylus, strokes respond to pressure and speed, and you choose the line thickness

A PATH THAT STARTS WHERE YOU ARE
• Starting from zero, know a little, preparing for JLPT N5 or past your first JLPT: Doriru builds your route from your answer
• Small milestones of hiragana, katakana, words and kanji, level by level up to N1
• New to Japanese? A short guide explains how its three scripts work

6 WAYS TO PRACTICE
• Flashcards for kana, kanji and vocabulary
• Kanji quiz and reading quiz
• Vocabulary puzzle: drag the syllables into place to spell each word's reading

2,100+ KANJI. 2,800+ WORDS.

• Complete hiragana and katakana
• Vocabulary from N5 to N3
• Search kanji by character, meaning or reading
• Everything lives on your device: no account, no connection needed

COMFORTABLE TO USE
