This is a very useful application for anyone who tries to learn Japanese. I was a beginner before, and by using the app, I felt very confident in my Japanese. Recently I visited Tokyo and tried to talk in Japanese, even though not that good, I can feel a lot of improvement. The exercise after each lesson is great! I bought 4 months subscription, now thinking about it, I should have bought a year instead to save money. If you are really serious about learning Japanese, buy one year license.

The number of ads makes this completely unusable. I counted 12 ads in about 5 minutes. I know depending what you're doing in the app is what triggers them, but this is insane. They even frequently interrupt lessons. Is something broken? I know making an app like this is hard work and you have to pay the bills, but slow down on the ads please. How can you study like this? I'd rather have longer unskippable ads if they'd appear less frequent. Also, a dictionary to look up words would be nice.

We're so sorry about the ads :( We have tried to optimize the ad as much as possible but still could not avoid causing a few interruptions during the learning process. We will consider Ad frequency, at the moment, the Ads won't appear till 1 minute 30 seconds after the previous Ads. We're deeply sorry for the inconvenience.

no time to review mistakes (disappears in a second or two), assumed punctuation (how do I know from a voice that there is supposed to be dots between words?), aggressive ads make it hard to complete even a single lesson. Volume of lessons is all over the place. The currently speaking bubble is often partially obscured by the bottom of the screen. There is no way to slow down sections to hear them better. it feels like it's pretty close to maybe being a good app, but it's hard to judge.

If the audio speed is too fast for you, we always have the change reading speed function! Just click on the clock-like button on the top right of the screen in each lesson to turn on the Slow reading mode. We would like to hear and support you further about your issues, so please reach out to us at support@porostudio.com! Thank you!
