Super Smart, Easy and CLEAN. I paid for the premium version within TEN seconds. You'd think that there would be PLENTY of "great" Hiragana apps available in the Play Store..right? RIGHT? WRONG! I mean we're talking ABC's here...it shouldn't be difficult to make Flash ABC's...how bad? From ZERO settings (only ON/OFF), to crazy bad mismatched colors, to being overly complicated, (I just want to learn ABC's!!) to bad interface/controls. This is the ONLY App that got EVERYTHING right. The ONLY ONE.
This is the best way to learn hirigana. It took me a few hours to learn all of them. The fact that during the quizz mode you have unlimited attempts means it's easier to learn as opposed to other apps that have a cool down. The chart is great to study and after an hour or so I can confidently get every single hirigana correct. This app in conjunction with other learning apps and tools are amazing. This is definitely the best for hirigana I've ever seen. 10/10
I probably wouldn't use this app to learn Hiragana, but for practice? It's excellent. When you are practicing: stare at the kana, practice saying it out loud, then move your thumb and press the answer. Or, try and get as fast at picking the answer accurately as you can. Definitely make sure you practice speaking. It will help solidify your memory, how you pronounce it, and also how to read it in your head. Don't rely only picking from the four given answers, and it's a good review tool!
