Description
Hourly Kana — Learn Japanese, one word at a time
We always want to improve. Suggestions? Email [email protected].
Build real Japanese vocabulary in small, repeatable moments.
Get a new word delivered the way you like — a lock-screen widget you can glance at, or scheduled notifications that nudge you on your own cadence and respect your quiet hours. Then open the app for everything behind each word: hiragana, katakana, meanings, natural sentence examples, native Japanese audio, flashcards, quizzes, history, and progress tracking.
Start from the ground up. The Foundations course teaches you to read Katakana & Hiragana, plus listening drills and tap-to-build challenges. From there, choose your JLPT level or take a quick placement, and grow from JLPT N5 to advanced.
Study the way that sticks: mark words as seen, review with smart practice, and keep your tricky words in a personal flashcard deck. Short quizzes lock in each lesson before you move on.
Designed for focused learning — private iCloud sync, works offline, and no ads, ever.
