Hiragana - Learn Japanese

This is the first thing I would recommend to someone trying to learn Japanese. Twenty minutes a day will get you to consistent accuracy with hiragana quickly, opening up effective paths to further learning. It's difficult to imagine anything better for learning hiragana. note to other users: Some characters are traditionally handwritten differently than they are printed, which is why they look different in the writing practice than in the recognition practice.

Great app. Love that I can mostly avoid any romanizations which slows down learning. I wish there was a way to run through all of the groups when doing a lesson, like a final test that jumbles them all up or something. Maybe for a pro version?

This is the best app. Straight forward and clean. Please develop a similar app for kanji! All of them are filled with unnecessary frills.

Very good app! Definitely recommend it! The app developer is very smart and ingenious. A small mistake is that the sounds for ra, ri, ru, re, ro ar actually the ones of da, di, du ,de, do.

This is the only app that corrects my "penmanship" when it's wrong. Also, because of how reasonably high its expectations are, I actually get enough practice that it makes the retention easier.

learning is good but writing hiragana is soo bad i know how to write but it everytime say it wrong and drawing pad is not working properly... and please and some good animation , graphic and some fun activities in this app because sometimes i get bored

I learned all my ひらがな and カタカナ singlehandedly through this app and its katakana cousin. I use that ability to learn everything else Japanese

I like that there are three areas to test your hiragana retention. I would recommend for starters.

The best and more practical for learning hiragana. I tried all others!

My go to for learning Hiragana. The best app for memorization

It is very helpful and also an entertaining way to learn

The best apo for learning this stuff. Highly recommended for begginners.

The best app for learning Hiragana.

When it reaches "Yo" it doesn't allow me to write and I cannot complete that section.

So far I had good experience with this app, thank you dev.

Helpful for the dedicated.

nice app... I like this app.

Good, to lear is real good

I am a very slow learner, but this app genuinely helps!

Used to be good but needs updating to work with android 10 as says app is too old

Great App. Thanks for fix it. I've awaited long

Love it!

Please do something about the "Write in Hiragana", you have no idea how tough it is to follow the lines even on a 5.5 inch phone when even the slightest miss makes you repeat the entire thing again, it's really hard to advance when you fail on hiragana you easily learnt but you keep missing them because the entire thing is unresponsive as hell.

I never review apps, but this app was so helpful that I felt like I had to rate it. This is the only tool I've used so far for learning hiragana without any prior knowledge of the Japanese language. After using it in my spare time this past week I can already recognise all the hiragana on sight and draw several of them.

This is a really good app for beginners. I paired this with Dr mokus (something like that, the icon is a weird guy with a yellow background) and I can recognize all the symbols. Use mokus to actually learn them and use this to test yourself. Just one problem. YOU HAVE DZI AND JI SWITCHED. well I'm pretty sure its that. Just go in and look at the area around them and you should find a mistake. Anyway good app just fix the thing and five stars

You'll learn and be able practice how to read and write the hiragana characters with this app. It doesn't teach you how hiragana characters relate with each other, but will help you memorize the characters one by one (there are categories) Would be awesome to use on devices with soft touch pens like in Galaxy Note

Love it! Quizes you by making you choose the hiragana that matches the sound from four "flash card" like characters. Then you have the option to type the romaji for the shown hiragana. Finally let's you practice drawing the hiragana, first starting with the character shown, then removing the lines but leaving the starting and ending points as a hint, then leaves only the starting points, and finally removes even that. Through somewhat forced practice you learn it and practice it until you get it right.

I've tried every app for learning Hiragana that I could find and this one has, by far, the best writing detection system. It truly does teach you how to write each character as it gradually removes the tracing guide as you learn. It could be improved with an options tab that would let you manually reset your progress with each lesson or let you choose which individual characters to practice. But as is, I highly recommend it. Also, I would recommend using a good quality stylus with this app.
