I've been using both the Hiragana Pro and Katakana Pro apps, I got the paid version for both of them, and I absolutely do not regret it! It's "gameplay" system is extremely efficient and weirdly addicting, not to mention the different challenges, it's super useful!!! The only thing that I feel that is missing, is an inverse quiz, like, instead of giving us the Hira/Kata and then asking what's the sound of that, there could be an option in which we could guess the Hira/Kata based on its sound

Katakana Pro and Hiragana Pro are brilliant apps. I was pretty rusty but these brought me well up to speed. I feel like they'd be great for absolute beginners as well with the visual and verbal aspects as well as the repetition. Well worth the $1 upgrade I might add. My only wish is that there was a drawing option in addition to the multiple choice and keyboard, but maybe some day 😁

I'm glad to see it's working again! For the past couple weeks I wasn't using it because it wouldn't let me hit the back button in the upper right hand corner so my progress never got saved. Now that it works again I will happily use it! In terms of design, I like both versions you made. The original colorful one and the black edition. Very cool!
