Speech is slow, which is good for beginners, but needs a normal speed ability as well that doesnt sound so unnatural and labored. Also it should have a download all confent button. Doing each one individually is really annoying after I paid for it.
Best app by far! It's a book, an audio book, and a grammar textbook all in one! There's multiple stories, divided into chapters. Each sentence can be audio played on its own. The production is very sophisticated. This app is robust and super clean. Highly recommended!
It would be quite better if after attempting the quiz , one can know whether the marked answers were correct or not. And if furigana can be seen just by touching the word , it would be more better. Kindly add more of these stories .
Very good app to improve listening skills.
Love this app. The audio is clear. The explanation is comprehensive.
Awesome, except for the flickering, the lack of sub links in the vocabulary displaying, the flicker as if something is trying to show when a word is selected, and general difficulty scrolling through a story. Cat S41 phone, Oreo. Honestly, there was nothing like the Read Japanese Windows Store App on Android until this app. But, it really must work better. Please fix.
Good supplement to your study of Japanese.
Excellent app. An amazing resource for learning to read japanese. The speech is very well enunciated and the detailed sentence by sentence vocabulary and grammar resources are amazing.
After using the stellar JA Sensei app and the website, I decided to try this. Once again, a high quality product for a low price. I love following along with the audio and then coming back later to try and see how I do. There are options within for those who do not know the kanji as well. Definitely recommend everything they have done so far.
