01

Choose a reply and see what follows

Follow a conversation by choosing your own replies. Feedback explains selected expressions that sound unnatural or impolite in context. Practise deciding what to say, with furigana or romaji when you need reading support.

02

Compare expressions for different people

How would you say the same thing to a friend, a senior colleague or a customer? Complete two or more linked conversations to see their expressions together. Comparison is available for supported scenario groups.

03

Repeat with fewer reading hints

With gradual support reduction enabled, repeat a conversation with fewer reading aids, then try listening before revealing the other speaker’s lines. You can reveal the text when needed. Revisit collected phrases with quizzes and audio drills.

Explore every feature

Find a conversation

Daily-life and hobby scenarios; title search; difficulty filters; today’s recommendation and next-practice suggestions; learning-goal selection.

Choose, think and compare

Branching replies, contextual feedback, grammar notes where available, cultural notes, and comparison of completed linked conversations. Optional pauses before choices and before sending a spoken reply.

Read with support

Japanese text, furigana, romaji or both; meanings; optional gradual reduction of reading hints on repeat playthroughs; reveal hidden lines when needed.

Listen and practise aloud

Japanese text-to-speech, slow playback, read-aloud, shadowing and recall audio drills. Playback needs a Japanese voice on your device.

Collect and review phrases

Phrasebook, review queue, mastery groups and function tags such as requests or refusals. Scheduled review quizzes include multiple choice, word order and fill-in-the-blank; a separate drill reviews phrases just collected.

Check your reading — beta

Optional on-device speech recognition offers three-level reading feedback and pace hints. Requires a model download, a compatible device and microphone permission; it is not expert pronunciation assessment.

Keep talking — beta

On supported scenarios and devices, type Japanese and let on-device AI choose from prepared replies. A summary covers politeness, clarity and vocabulary, with suggested phrases to save. Model download required; responses and ratings can be wrong. Time and turn limits apply. A demo uses a simpler reply-selection method before the model is downloaded.

Keep track of practice

Scenario completion counts, current and best streaks, earned Rest Passes that protect missed days, and sharing of a completion summary.

Make it fit your routine

Optional daily reminders at a fixed time or your last study time; eight interface languages with a system-language option; practice switches, slow-speech setting and license information.

Accounts, data and access

No account required; learning records are saved on your device. Core scripts are bundled. Contains ads; some scenarios unlock through rewarded ads. Ads and model downloads need internet. Some content may fall back to English.
