StickyStudy Japanese App Reviews

I am studying Japanese completely on my own. Between this app for vocab and the "Tae Kim" website for grammar, I can learn on my own - fast. The app is kindof addictive so I end up studying many times a day, any chance I get... Which is the perfect way to memorize new terms! All my coworkers are blown away by the kanji that I know after being in Japan for only 7 months. And some of the guys that have been here for 5-10 years (and married to Japanese women) are a bit embarrassed! (so they decided to get the same app... Haha) Actually I also develop apps and was going to do something very similar, but I stopped once I found this app.

Great app for studying. Very motivating and it works. My kanji and vocabulary have improved an amazing amount. Thanks for the app!

This is the BEST kanji study app I found. Period.

In context for me this app is amazing. I spent 7 years in Japan and speak fluent Japanese but my reading and writing skills are at a modest intermediate to advanced level only. Im currently using this app to do a complete review of the entire language and finally finish studying the last few hundred kanji I never got to in my studies. I have tons of textbooks but right meow this is all Im using. I only have 2 criticisms; 1 - I literally spend hours staring at my iPhone studying so it would be great if I could swipe to the left anywhere on the screen to go back to save time and avoid having to stretch to reach the back button each time. 2 - JLPT level 1 kanji deck is huge, would be amazing if you could have an option to break it up into smaller pieces based on a study schedule you can program in yourself so you dont feel daunted by the task. These arent reasons to not buy the app though. Thank you so much!!

I played around with the "lite" version for a while and realized there is a lot of value to be extracted from using this app. I have been using the app "Kanji" for its simplicity for a long time but it hasnt been updated in years. Im done with it. This app, on the other hand, allows a simple approach to flash cards but somehow manages to offer lots of useful features at the same time, and it is still actively updated! Kudos to this guy... Gotta support independent developers. Buy it!

I use this app extensively and passed my JLPT 4 in part thanks to it. The app has a few small problems but has improved significantly over the past year. Customer support is also great. I highly recommend you get this app!

Ive been using this app a lot while studying in preparation for N2 and N1 and still using it. Nicely designed app, pretty reliable. Good for beginners who wanna remember hiragana and katakana. Good for veterans who dont have much time to study too.

The best! I really like the new audio integration, i was hoping for it.

This is a tool where old school repetition meets modern technology! Best tool for memorizing vocabulary.

This app is really amazing. Its constantly being updated and improved. If youre serious about learning Japanese then you really need to download this.

If your looking for an app to learn kanji this is the one and only app you need.

I am absolutely certain that the sticky study apps are the easiest and most effective way to learn kanji/kana on the AppStore. I found it a little hard to figure out how the UI/navigation worked specifically how to get to the practice writing after pressing answer in study mode, but afterwards this app has helped me so much. Thank you so much for making this app!

I would have given it 5 stars, if it had audio. Hopefully, that will be added one day. Otherwise, its a great study aid for organizing and maintaining your progress.

I often add my own words. If my device has to be restored, it means reinstall this app also. I will lost added words. It could be great if has import/export features. I also use this app for English. Its also good.

I love it! The study method is great. The preset vocabulary/kanji groups for the JLPT allow you to study and review for the test, not wasting time on non test words. Example sentences are a GREAT help to reenforce word usage. Lastly the option to set goals is an innovative plus!!

I spent a lot on other kanji apps to study before stumbling onto this and it is BY FAR the best app out there. Obviously a labour of love, it is very well designed and comes with a load of features to help you study and track your progress. I never write app reviews but this app has impressed me a lot.. Bravo to the developer, with the help of this app N1 looks like cake.

Fantastic app, I completed the first 661 kanji in an hour and 20 min. Really fast and effective app. One request however. I am on N4 kanji now but some of the kanji dont provide example sentences. There are some words that I have never heard before and would like to know how to use them Please consider this in the next update. Cheers ;)

If pronounce for vocabulary is added it very very goods. It is great App. Thanks.

What I value most of this application is Justin, the developer! I have followed the development of StickyKanji since its early stages. He readily responded to my feedback, not only by promptly replying to my emails, but by actually implementing my proposals! I have witnessed an enormous improvement of this learning tool and today I can strongly recommend it to anyone who is serious about learning Kanji! Well done, Justin! Excellent work!

Perfect to study kanji on the go!
