About Furigator: Kanji Reader

Read Japanese text with furigana and translations added instantly, right where you need them, all processed on your device. No account, no server, nothing ever sent anywhere. Furigator gives you what you need to keep reading, without stopping to look anything up. Paste any passage — manga, a menu, a news article, a text from a friend — and Furigator handles it as a whole, keeping kanji readings and translations accurate to the actual sentence rather than guessing word by word. Whether you're studying for the JLPT, working through your first manga volume, or just trying to read a restaurant menu on a trip, Furigator meets you where you are. What you get: - Furigana — Reading guides appear above kanji as soon as you paste text, formatted the way learner editions are. - On-Device Translation — Runs through Apple's Translation framework, fully offline once downloaded — nothing is ever sent anywhere. - Hear It Spoken — Built-in text-to-speech for correct pronunciation. - Tap for Context — Select any word for a full dictionary entry, matched to how it's used in that sentence. - Pick Up Where You Left Off — History and favorites, saved automatically. - Snap a Photo — OCR pulls Japanese text straight from a sign, menu, or book page. - On the Web Too — The Safari extension adds furigana to any Japanese page you're already reading. Why is Furigator different? Most tools make you look up one character at a time, breaking your flow. Furigator processes full passages in context, so what you read is what a fluent reader would actually understand — not a string of isolated dictionary hits.
