About KanaSensei

KanaSensei helps Japanese learners practice hiragana and katakana, covering the 46 basic characters plus dakuten and combinations, one script at a time. Each practice shows a character and plays its reading; type the reading and your streak keeps going. The app records the characters you often misread, helping you find the kana that still need work. Once ready, you can move from single kana to reading real vocabulary.
