Would love to see dictation practice added to this app! Otherwise, it’s perfect — the best app for learning kana on iOS by far.

A really good, well-designed app. I used this one to learn hiragana and katakana and I highly recommend it. It comes with all the variations: dakuon, handakuon and yōon: the combined characters, and some additional for katakana. There are two ways you can test them: either by speed recognition or stroke recognition. You can choose the speed settings, and I really like the stroke recognition. I used roughly ten minutes a day with this app and it didn't take long time to learn them. I would say this is the best app, but I didn't try any other. I looked at them but they didn't seem as appealing. I think I bought this at a reduced price, but it was worth the money.

I love this app because is mostly free without a pay wall of some sort and you can use it for travel or learning hiragana or katakana, or even kanji the most hardest. Even you know Chinese but Japanese kanji and Chinese letters are a little bit of different meanings. And I’m using this on my iPhone if this app would come to the Mac or pc I would use it every day. And I can practice my Japanese language skills. And right now I know two languages almost three. The first one is English of course and the second one is Cantonese and the third one is obviously Japanese. The one I’m practicing right now.
