Ratings and reviews

Not sure the improvement. その just shows sono & ふだん fudan w/no explanation. You also cant select a bunch of kanji & kana at the same time, to see the true translation, which can dramatically change meaning. Not a fan of paying for basic features either. You have border ads & video ads. Make unskippable ads watchable for premium features for a limited time, 30min-1hr a pop. Most people wont pay, but will watch an ad. App's decent, but can be way better. Can not lower or raise the score currently.

A decent effort. This is free and allows you to view offline, as well as save it for later. Also uses flashcards which I haven't tested yet. It does actually allow for some kana to be studied, which most other news apps do not. But it still needs improvement in that department. Also no way to search by proficiency levels or subject matter. A cut above the rest, but still not quite there yet. Just needs some better kana translations and better search functions. Almost to TangoRista standards.

A decent start, but a lot of kanji are not highlighted to represent their N level. Quite a few kanji & a lot of kana do not have meanings. No option to read stories written for specific N levels. Saving an article may not be readily available offline & no pictures offline makes it hard to find later. You can not click the title to view their kanji meanings. Flashcards dont work offline. Trouble finding news about Japan. Not sure how accurate the language is coming from the likes of CNN and such.
