About this game

Stop memorizing isolated characters and start reading real Japanese. SimpleKanji is designed specifically for JLPT students who want to master all Jōyō Kanji the way they are actually used: in context.

Instead of showing you a standalone character and a list of abstract meanings, SimpleKanji teaches every kanji as part of a practical vocabulary word, complete with a real-world example sentence. As your knowledge grows, the app grows with you. By dynamically unlocking new vocabulary based on the kanji you already know, SimpleKanji ensures your study sessions are always highly efficient, relevant, and rewarding.

Why Choose SimpleKanji?
Context-Driven Learning: Never learn a kanji in isolation. Every character is tied to a specific word and an example sentence so you understand exactly how it functions in native Japanese.

Progressive Vocabulary Unlocking: The smarter you get, the more the app reveals. As you mark kanji as "Known" or "Learning," the Vocab section automatically introduces new words built entirely from characters you are already familiar with.

Comprehensive Testing: Put your knowledge to the test. Challenge yourself with tailored exams covering sentence reading, vocabulary translation, and listening comprehension.

Smart Spaced Repetition (SRS): The app’s intelligent algorithm tracks your progress behind the scenes, alerting you exactly when it is time to review words before you forget them.

Gamified Practice
Studying for the JLPT does not have to be a grind. Take a break from standard flashcards and reinforce your memory with four built-in, fast-paced mini-games:

Memory: Test your recall by matching kanji to their meanings.

Basket & Fishing: Dynamic, interactive games designed to build rapid recognition.

Bomb: A race against the clock to prove your kanji reading speed under pressure.

Complete Control Over Your Study
Filter Your Sessions: Choose exactly what you want to study: New words, Known words, words that need Reinforcement, or the entire Jōyō database.

Cloud Sync & Backups: Never lose your progress. Export your data locally or securely sync it to the cloud via your Google account (Premium).

Bilingual Support: Fully supported in both English and Spanish.

Whether you are aiming for N5 or pushing toward N1, SimpleKanji gives you the structure, context, and repetition you need to read Japanese with absolute confidence.

Download SimpleKanji today and start building your vocabulary one character at a time.
