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.

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.

I've enjoyed this app but please fix it! Not only can you not change your password in the app, but you also can't change your email. I do not want to send account details over so they can put in the new password for me. I'd like the app to do what it is supposed to do instead. I should not have to spam the "update" button multiple times to finally get it to let me put I my current password only for it to tell me it's wrong. Plus there is no forgot password option on the app or the site.

I like this a lot! I've been looking for an app to switch to since the whole thing w Duo (if you know you know) and so far it's pretty straightforward and teaching the Hiragana w a flashcard type system and matching sounds w each character, which is the exact feature I was looking for in an app. I haven't explored the other settings but there's a lesson courses you can pick from depending on why you want to learn and you can change it any time.

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
