About this app

LEARN LESS BUT LEARN EFFICIENTLY!


Just studying with HeyJapan for 1 hour and continuously for 2 months, you will see the difference!
>> Take 40 minutes every day to learn basic Japanese words, basic grammar, and phrases, and practice listening, speaking. Spend 20 minutes revising the entire lesson.
At the weekend, review all the basic words and phrases you learned during the week, and earn good badges from HeyJapan!
In particular, the application will remind you to study every day, and at the same time show you the secrets of learning Japanese effectively.

Learning the Japanese alphabet is the first step you need to take to conquer this interesting language.

If you're using multiple devices, I don't recommend it. I have paid the premium version and expected to receive the full benefits for both of my devices, however, it didn't recognize my premium status in other devices, making it impossible to sync the lessons. Besides, the syncing method is odd and confuse, instead of automatically detect the highest progress, you have to manually download each time you want to sync your lessons. Furthermore this app have fewer examples to practice the language

it's really good, but the "buy this" stuff it's a bit of an eyesore and it keeps crashing when I finish a unit, I have to close the app and enter once again so it allows me to keep going because otherwise it just keeps the next unit locked with the "you have to finish the previous unit" warning... if it weren't for this things the app would be practically perfect, it's so good to learn new words fast, some grammar rules and the writing order

In my opinion it's a great app for learning for beginners, or just newbies in general. it's engaging, cute and most importantly effective. There are some complaints, such as the English translations being questionable at times, and the interface not always working correctly, but all and all, I am glad to have gotten the premium version. It's great :3
