I would welcome the ability to either use a web interface to manage my study lists or to import vocabulary/phrases/etc. from an external file. I’m learning Japanese with Japan Foundation and their Minato platform following Katsudo & Rikai books. For sure there’s an overlap between Minato and Benkyō, but as newbie I don’t want to get overwhelmed. Since I don’t know what exactly to choose, I’m relying on parsing Benkyō database and adding manually to my study list what Katsudo & Rikai expect me to learn. Romain, would you mind adding dedicated decks for that? Everything can be found on Maruguto JPF website.

The best app you can get to practice your Nihongo, bar none. Writing and speaking, mind you.

Cette application possède tout le nécessaire pour apprendre les bases du japonais : kana, kanjis, et même vocabulaire. Les exercices sont triables par catégorie : écriture, prononciation, signification et aussi par niveau : du N5 au N1. La seule problématique étant que l’application ne fait pas la différenciation entre on-yomi et kun-yomi lors des exercices de prononciation, nous laissant donc le choix d’en apprendre qu’une seule des deux.

App itself is good but and helps a lot but it misses a lot of basic features, for example it doesn’t have a way to share your lists between devices which is really annoying, it doesn’t seem to handle 120hz it feels very laggy in any device I tried

Absolutely well-made and beautiful app and I was so close to buying it. All aspects of the app are perfect except 2 major ones. The handwriting recognition is really bad. Either it wrongly detects the writing as correct before you write the whole character, or it doesn't detect simple characters at all. It feels random. The TTS is also a huge pain point. There's many AI models that can do a much better job and the one on this app is pretty much the worst I've ever heard. Even just Google translate voice would be a massive upgrade.
