The game teaches you words but even on beginner it's impossible to get more than 12 words in without running out of time. The words always appear in the same order so you get lots of practice on some words and never see others. You can get additional time by watching an advert but that still doesn't get you far into the word list and whilst I've tried watching a second and, it didn't bring an advert up. I feel like it has potential but in needs to be at least a tiny bit achievable

I recently installed Anki and am amazed the number of languages it covers. However, since its words are predominantly nouns, it doesn't provide a sense of language with words used in context... like phrases or shot sentences. But I'm thankfully for small mercies. The interface really needs a makeover, and the clutter in the background impedes learning.

Hello everyone. Your application is so good but I saw a bit bug in it. In fact it usually happens because I am developer and I know better than someone. In the WORD tab, first ComboBox when I change use to language to Persian the application translate to Arabic for me. When the change language use to Arabic translate to Persian.

I'm relatively new to using the app but it has been handy so far for recognising phrases and kanji. Sometime though I recognise it because of the cards, but I have no idea how to say it. Perhaps it is a feature I just haven't found yet but pronunciation help would be nice. Otherwise pretty good

Ive heard great things but I'm left very disappointed. When you quiz it shows you the English word before the other language, so its not really a test. I also wish it had gendered articles for the vocabulary.

Good app so far to practice another language. However, I am disappointed that the verbal aspect appears to be an AI reader. The foreign words are mispronounced. None of the Spanish words have the accent nor the emphasis on the right letters. It would be great if you had a Spanish speaker read the words.

I just started. Simple to use. For Spanish the verbs do not have "To" written in front of them which is a problem for new learners. As an example the English side of the card Ship is Enviar. If a new learner sees that they may think it means a ship like a boat but it really means To Ship, as in to ship a package.The topics don't seem to be super coherent, maybe they will make more sense as I advance.

I just started trying it, I don't see the repetition feauture that people mentioned Anki was great for. That is the reason why I downloaded anki, but there are so many app versions not sure which one to use. The flashcards are good though.

I can see it being amazing once you have kanji down as well as hirigana (might not need to know much katakana yet either), my only wish is it had an option to focus on hirigana words so you can practice reading out and memorizing the sounds, but I realise that probably really limits what you can practice. It's intended to be a vocabulary tool at the end of the day, so for what it is its phenomenal 😁

When I first opened it, it was hard to use. I didn't really know what to do and was really confused after a minute because a notification was on the screen that was written in japanese (my skill level is low so I didn't really know what to do). It would be nice if you could have a tutorial in English when you first open the app. That way you know what to do and don't get confused. :)
