Posted in: New language learning tool, Japanese Flash, launches on App Store See in context

sf2k update : the program Anki Mini is currently available for jailbroken iPhones & iPods only. That's one of the many reasons why we felt there was a need to create Japanese Flash. Cheers ;)

I have long used the apps "Japanese", Japanese Flip and Kotoba.

Japanese is a really good dictionary with great cross referencing abilities. Code from Tokyo has obviously put a lot of love into it. However it is slow loading large sets of words and the interface is designed for being a dictionary, not a flash card program.

Kotoba is also a good dictionary, free (thanks Pierre!) and offers multiple languages, but does not do flash cards and can be slow to search at times.

Japanese Flip is a flash card app that only offers JLPT sets 1-4, and has not been upgraded in a very long time. I remember getting this just after the iPhone launched in Japan. It hasn't changed much since then. I also find the UI ugly.

Japanese Flash aims to do one thing well, and do it in style, to help you study Japanese using flash cards! The balance between words, speed, ease of use, secondary features and good looks is hard to beat.

In the interests of FULL DISCLOSURE, I work for LWE LLC the maker of Japanese Flash. For some of the commenters above, I leave you with this to think about when posting advertorials:

Peace :D
