Wakanai: Learn Japanese

Speak casual Japanese on your Japan trip by listening first. Wakanai teaches absolute beginners real Japanese from real podcasts. Watercolor scenes carry the meaning while you listen (no text, no translation crutch), a subtitled replay confirms what you caught, and then you say the new words out loud. - Audio from Japanese podcasts - Three-pass sessions: listen → understand → speak - Confirm your understanding by speaking, not tapping. Your voice is the test - FSRS spaced repetition schedules every word just before you'd forget it - Conversations (optional subscription): order at the izakaya, shop at the konbini, catch your train. Practice speaking with Toro who won't use a word you haven't learned yet. - Private by design: no accounts, no audio uploads. Speech recognition runs entirely on your iPhone Wakanai Conversations is an optional auto-renewable subscription ($9.99/month or $69.99/year after a 7-day free trial). Payment is charged to your Apple Account; the subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings.
