Kann for Android

Maker

📌

After several months of beta testing Kann with over 1,000 active users, I'm excited to share this new addition to the Japanese learning ecosystem. Kann was born from a personal frustration: existing Japanese learning tools often follow rigid programs that don't align with individual interests. Rather than being limited to dictionary lookups or predetermined vocabulary lists, I wanted to create a more engaging way to learn Japanese words in topics that actually matter to you. Whether you're looking to develop specialised vocabulary or just starting your Japanese journey, Kann adapts to your interests and learning style. What makes this project even more special is that it's my first venture into coding. The enthusiastic response from our beta testers has exceeded my expectations, and I'm grateful for everyone who's been part of this journey. Thank you for taking the time to explore Kann. I hope it helps make your Japanese learning experience more enjoyable and personalised.

I've tried my fair share of Japanese learning apps - one thing I will say about Kana is it's the prettiest. I'm a sucker for design and if something looks good, I'm more likely to revisit it. Aside from the design form, it takes a different approach to learning Kanji and Japanese allowing you to explore each one instead of trying to unlock them which is great if you're learning practically alongside movies, Anime, or even in Japan.

I like learning languages and TBH, I consider Japanese very difficult to learn because di different signs. Anyway, you created something that seems to be a good start. Is it suitable for total beginners?

@busmark_w_nika I added the basics (Hiragana/Katakana/Radicals) to help freshen up your memory but the app assume you have a good reading and speaking understanding. It is very much focused on Dictionary words and example phrases so if you start here you might take on nasty habits in reading. To be fair, combining Kann and some Youtube practice should jumpstart your learning journey!
