Ratings and reviews

I only use this app for a visual on pitch accent, which it does very well. Combined with a dictionary like Takoboto and Forvo (to hear native pronunciation examples) + an app for me to record myself and listen back to it, I've been able to improve my accent and listening skills a lot! I highly recommend this app for the convenience of an offline pitch accent visual :)

Hello there! How are we supposed to know if the particle attaches high or low? Without listening to the sentence at least. Now the app is pretty good, it's simple and easy to use, but there's that one major issue. Please add either a particle in a different color, a number indicating when the pitch drops or add the category names (heiban, atamadaka, etc.) or better yet, all of them! I would absolutely adore this app if this improvement was made! I look forward to future updates! :)

The app works really well at what it's supposed to do. You can search for words and their pitch accent really easy with their meaning. The only bug I have found is that it stops whatever music you're playing when entering the app for some reason 😅. All in all I highly recommend this app, and if you feel like you have something better please send it to me.
