The Kanji tree app has a similar effect but is far simpler, cleaner, and easier to use than this app. This app includes more options, but I feel like I would be better off using a dictionary and flash cards in the end.

Very useful app! It seems that the daily notifications completely stop if you happen to miss a day. Is there a fix for that?

I've been using this app before but the animation of drawing (which I enjoyed viewing before) kanji part is missing right now compared before.
