- Added usability improvements to the stage screens. - Corrected which romaji spellings are accepted, to better match Kunrei-shiki and Japanese IME input. Hepburn remains the primary system.
User reviews
Exactly what I was looking for in a kana app. Bonus points for not having a subscription, at least not at the time of this review. It's simply a one time fee to unlock additional training methods but you can train just fine without them. Try it out!
JAPAN
