Six surfaces. One quiet classroom.
Built around the way adults actually learn a language — read, listen, speak, repeat. No streak shame; no kawaii mascots; no surprise paywalls.
Reading-first
Every level opens with hand-authored short stories with sentence-by-sentence audio. The app logs every kanji you meet and schedules a quick SRS review — so the dictionary feels earned.
Kanji you remember
Mnemonic images, multi-language meanings, stroke-order animation, and audio readings — stacked on a single calm card. No flashcard fatigue.
Shadowing (Kaiwa)
Coherent multi-sentence narratives recorded at natural speed. Shadow any sentence, tweak the speed, record yourself, and compare.
Voice Vocab
Pronounce vocab out loud — the app scores your pronunciation against a native model, so you know if you're actually saying it right.
Practice exams
Mock JLPT and JFT-Basic sets built from the content you've already studied, so every question is relevant practice, not random trivia.
Calm, modern
Sumi-ink + washi-cream palette. System dark mode. One tap to switch between eleven interface languages. No aggressive notifications.
The whole catalogue, open in your browser
Kanji, vocabulary, grammar, and shadowing — searchable, in 11 languages, right here on the web. The app adds SRS review, recording, and offline access.

Why “360”?
Because the kanji you actually own is the one you can read in a sentence, hear in a podcast, write from memory, and explain to someone else — you've approached it from every angle. That's 360°.
Built by Pixeliro, the same studio behind ABC Phonics. We're language nerds who got tired of streak-engineered Japanese apps that punish you for taking a day off.

Frequently asked
Who is Kanji 360 for?
Adults who already know hiragana and katakana and want to move into kanji and reading — from total beginner (N5) to advanced (N1). The web version is also handy as a quick reference dictionary.
Does it work offline?
The app caches everything after first download, so you can study on the subway, on a plane, anywhere. The web dictionary requires a connection.
What does it cost?
Free for N5 and N4 content. A one-time unlock gives you N3 through N1, shadowing audio, and voice scoring — no subscription.
Why kanji-first?
Because every adult learner eventually hits a wall where vocabulary study stalls without kanji. Tackling kanji early — through reading — means vocabulary and grammar start to make intuitive sense.
