About ひらカタ - Hiragana & Katakana
ひらカタ (Hira Kata) is a clean, focused flashcard app for mastering the Japanese hiragana and katakana writing systems — all 46 basic characters for each script. Study Mode Browse through every character at your own pace. Tap a card to flip between the kana character and its romaji reading. Swipe left and right to navigate. Shuffle the deck or study in traditional gojuuon order. Exam Mode Test your knowledge with a shuffled deck. Each card shows a kana character — swipe right if you remember it, swipe left if you don't. The card flips to reveal the answer with instant color feedback: green for correct, red for incorrect. Made a mistake? Tap to undo. Your results are saved with a score and letter grade. Practice Mode Unlocked after completing 3 exams, Practice mode builds a personalized deck from the characters you've struggled with the most. Focus your time where it matters and watch your weak spots disappear. Features - All 46 hiragana and 46 katakana characters - Smooth card flip and swipe animations - Score history with detailed per-character results - Gojuuon grid report showing your strengths and weaknesses - Resume interrupted exams and practice sessions - Three visual themes: white, light, and dark - No account required — all data stays on your device - No ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases
