GENKI Kanji for 3rd Ed. App Reviews

Passable. If you have time to spare and want a way to study Genki textbook material directly, this is handy. The user interface is clunky and outdated, however. Looking at mnemonic hints for the characters and viewing the stroke order pulls up images and videos instead of smoother animations that you might see in contemporary apps. I definitely hope that some more quality-of-life features are added, along with a character-writing practice function. It doesn’t have to be flashy or particularly beautiful, but rather smooth and efficient for learning would be nice.

Sound Works. I had the same issue of the sound working with the Genki vocabulary app until I read a review that said in order for the audio to work, your phone cannot be in Silent Mode. I turned off silent mode and the playback audio totally worked! Same for this app as well. Just make sure silent mode is turned off.

No sound!!. Please fix this app! It is useless without audio!!

Not very effective as a study tool. I wanted to try this because it follows the textbook but it’s not that useful. Aside from the audio only working with earbuds, the way it teaches and reviews kanji could be more helpful. It gives you all the info about a kanji in the study mode and in the check mode it just asks if you know it. For an app that costs $6 I’d like to see more interactivity (choosing the right kanji from a list of similar looking ones, writing out the strike order with your finger, guessing the kanji from a list of options based on the other characters in the word, etc). I’ve seen these features on other apps that I didn’t have to pay for.

Helped me learn Japanese. Thank you!!

Could you please figure out why there is no sound. Why there’s no sound could you please figure it out? Thank you very much

Fixing Review - Headphone Sound Only. When using the app, I was mad that there was no sound through the speaker phone, and thought it was broken or a scam. Only to have a friend tell me in Japanese culture, they believed it’s rude to play things outloud on your phone in public. He told me to try using headphones. Sure enough, audio works when connected to headphone!!! Wish the app says that to avoid the miscommunication. But anyways, if you use it, audio only works when connected to headphones. I guess to avoid the app making a scene or being rude in public, they automatically had audio only work with headphones. I would give it 5 stars if they created the ability to play through the speaker, so I don’t have to use headphones in the comfort of my own home. But since here we are only headphones available, 4 stars.

No sound. There is no sound in this app despite the phones sound being up and working in other apps so I cannot hear how the words are pronounced. It also doesn’t say what number the kanji are corresponding to in the text book. This app is lacking.

A waste of money. Please save your money and do not purchase this app! There’s no sound (yes I’ve turned on the sound setting and my phone volume works just fine). Also, it does not show you the stroke order like advertised. I’m better off just using Quizlet instead.

Hide the meanings!. Please hide the English meanings! Show the kanji, then have the English reveal with the hiragana. I’ve already learned the vocab, I can’t learn to read kanji if the English meaning is always right there.

Doesn’t. Cant see kanji to check on I pad.

Not as good as the 2nd edition apps. Some updated material to match the 3rd edition, but the apps for the 2nd edition work a lot better. Glitchy and often frustrating to use.
