| 2024-11-24 |  | | 10/10 exactly what I wanted, hand writing kanji, multiple examples and usage |
| 2024-10-28 |  | | Incredible app. Does exactly what I want, and when it seems like it isn't working right, most of the time, it's because I'm doing something wrong. Happily paid for the pro version. Very reasonable price, too. |
| 2024-10-16 |  | | Hey guys. I started using this app, because I had a hard time reading Kanji. This app makes it so fast and easy to just write or draw a Kanji, to find out the meaning and how to say it. On the first use, I was amazed.. |
| 2024-09-01 |  | | great apps to learn khanji and OCR is accurate. |
| 2024-08-25 |  | | This is fantastic, it can tell what I'm looking for, even from by terrible drawings |
| 2024-06-25 |  | | It is so fast and easy to use, it also helped me increase my vocabulary, I often read manga and most of the time there is no furigana so being able to lookup kanji by drawing it is a lot of help! |
| 2024-04-22 |  | | I've been learning Japanese over the last year and I've had so much trouble trying to get the hang ok kanji. Having an easy lookup tool like this has helped my journey SO much. |
| 2024-01-23 |  | | By paying $2.11, you can remove the ads, which are indeed make the app almost useless. Otherwise, OK, although a user's guide would be helpful - for example how to look up a 2nd kanji to narrow down a list. Good features: can recognize kanji written sloppily and with wrong stroke order, can look up a kanji identified in camera. |
| 2024-01-16 |  | | Wow. A kanji drawing search app that actually allows you to search kanji by drawing, and works well. Good job. My only nitpick is there's no English search or pronunciation audio, which makes the app feel incomplete. Originally have this 5 stars. Then I ran into full screen unskippable ads, which greatly makes the app unusable. Every time you click on something, you have to wait for 30 seconds while a loud video ad plays. Probably going to uninstall this. |
| 2023-09-19 |  | | Works *very* well, but you have to wait for an ad to show up at the bottom before you write, otherwise it just deletes everything previously written when the ad does show up. Other than that, it's very nice :) |
