About Japanese Word of the Day -Lite

Living in Tokyo and studying Japanese, I learn a lot of new word that I wouldn't be able to learn without the full immersion experience. I eventually got the bright idea to write some of them down. At first, I just jotted words on a notepad, but now I'm syncing these words on my phone and sharing it with the world!

This Japanese word of the day app is extra unique because the vocabulary is what I encounter living in Japan. Some words are very normal, some are a bit specific, and some words are quirky memes. However, no words will be outdated!

This app is a great complement to learning Japanese at http://japanesevideocast.com - some words will sync with future lesson content!

App Features:
+ Words without constant internet connection for travellers!
(words are synced a month+ in advance)
+ All words come with examples and sound
(some words also come with synonyms)
+ Romaji, Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji supported
+ Notification alerts to notify you the new vocabulary word each day
+ Quiz/Game features to help you reinforce information
(Quizzes on words you mark are based on SRS techniques)
+ Pop quizzes will sometimes surprise you! You can even play premium quiz games if you're lucky!
+ Quiz game with cute characters to test your speed
+ Premium quiz game to test your Japanese listening ability
+ Word Tracking for words you mark
+ Copy/Paste vocabulary words to easily share
+ Common vocabulary also available
(basic app includes 76 key Travel vocabulary words)
+ Other game skins are available through Pro Version

(Want to see more features? Feel free to contact me as I'd love your help to make this app more useful to everyone. If you enjoy this app, we have a couple other similar but different apps released)

Coming Soon:
- More Core Vocabulary

Might be good, who can tell. Installed on Galaxy note 10.1 2014 andriod 4.4.2, screen rendered wider than 10.1 landscape. Popup screens, such as options has text BACKWARDS, or text overlapping. Has potential for some people. Not compatible with Tablets maybe. Who is the sekininsha? Maybe he should fix it.

N70%

The very first word was confusing. Owabi. For some reason there's two versions of the translation. The Japanese reads: yoku owabi shinasai and the romaji translation says yoku owabi shite kudasai. The romaji translation is a politer version of the sentence but if you're new to Japanese you'd be like "I don't understand why the kana and romaji don't match up? There also only seems to be 5 topics, traveling, body, family, occupations and food. The trial topic (traveling) has 76 words in it. I'm guessing the other 4 topics also have 76 words as well. I'm not sure I'd want to upgrade for £6.32 for only 380 words. £6.32 is a lot for an app. I'll hold back on upgrading on this one. Having said all that, their approach does seem quite refreshing and the review system is quite nice and I like the fact that casual Japanese is also used.

I am a big fan of the Japanese language and I'm always looking for new ways to broaden my knowledge with it. I have many different sources and I am glad I came across this one to add to it as well. It's super easy for anyone to be able to use and benefit from all the same. Whether you're a beginner or just touching up, it's perfect! I especially love the games you can play too! (It's also helped my ability of reading Kanji too!)
