I have had this app for years now and it has served me very well I don t use the dictionary all that much I m more about the handy kanji writing dictionary perfect for on the fly readings no knowledge of radicals needed at all just simply write the character out in the correct way and you ll get the apposite hit before you know it This is what makes this app worth the price in my opinion it s a cut above Purchase it without any fears it will most definitely serve you well whether you have an advanced or rudimentary knowledge of Japanese and Kanji characters alike                     Well made and very accurate app Pf1220

wishoTouch is a very usable Japanese dictionary with a good UI OCR and handwriting recognition features and it plays well with iOS including split view multitasking Today widget and an extension that lets you look up kanji from any other app It does seem to be missing some built in lists for kanji organized by grade and JLPT level and a way to test myself in those such as with flashcards The lack of these requires me to turn to other apps which is alright wishoTouch does well what it focuses on Some requests observations When searching for japanese or kanji in the App Store wishoTouch does not appear very high on the list of results You may want to see to that Some extra functionality in the Today widget would be nice Some extra information in Japanese for each kanji such as the native Japanese terms for categorizing nouns verbs etc would be nice Lastly thank you very much for making and updating this                     Professional functional and modern but missing flashcard features Zak MacKracken

At first when I was still learning how to use this app I thought it was nothing big but once I figured it out I was so happy Not having it is not an option since it helps me with my studies soooo much They updated iOS and now I have to wait for the app to update since I can t use it due to it crashing after I start it up I hope it is updated soon                     So useful Mistique FireMaiden

This app provides no instructions whatsoever with regard to how to use it There are symbols to tap on whose functions are completely unexplained Very frustrating and annoying Do not waste your money on this product Choose an app whose creators at least care enough about their work and the consumer to provide adequate user friendly instructions     Seriously lacking most basic instructions Edward in New York

As a freelance translator I usually have digital files to work with For cases when I need to translate from hard copy or PDF and can t just copy and paste this app is a lifesaver for fast accurate kanji and vocabulary lookup                     An Essential Tool Rikkyfox

Easily worth 20 if you re not a complete noob at kanji and can draw the radicals with the proper stroke order If you are a complete noob I recommend Skritter I only wish it were easier to look up words formed from multiple kanji more easily Thankfully at least you can copy paste individual kanji into Denshi Jisho Slow but it works I also wish there were a by Radical function like Denshi Jisho but without having to search for the radicals visually Then it would be 5 stars                 Works great RedTincture

This is a great app for finding kanji and the dictionary aspect is great as well My only wish is that it had a deeper bank of ancient japanese kanji                 Great App tarthur1

Sadly this app only recognizes kanji if its written in perfect stroke order and with really neat writing For twenty bucks What did I just buy I m assuming most people who use the app are just learning Japanese so probably don t know perfect stroke order Also the app layout is difficult to navigate to see kanji meaning in hiragana Please make an update to make kanji more recognizable based on the end product rather than stroke order otherwise I sadly just wasted my money and want a refund     over priced and not worth it katrinapichelli

Seriously a great app if you re commuted to learning Japanese                     The best Japanese app Nicholas LaFarge

I m a Japanese national and speak the language fluently but since I ve been in the U S since age 5 kanji throws me off every now and then This is a perfect tool for the likes of me                     Perfect for me 0th generation

Needs voice recognition so a person could say a word and it s kanji is looked up kind of like google voice search                 Could be perfect if Brandon white

Until today this was the only app that had strokes recognition on iphone It was always painful to use lots of copy paste opetations bugs slowness Fortunelly Midori dictionary came out today for the iPhone It works perfectly It has much more features including stroke recognition names database good ui etc I can finally get rid of WishoTouch today     I really hate the gui bugs pmnox

I think the program is okay overall but I think it would be even better if you can either take a picture of multiple kanji say a whole word for example instead of one kanji at a time Or be able to take multiple pictures to search for a word             Promising Carper87

Update Upon further use I ve decided this app is pretty good there are a lot of good features However they are poorly explained and the price is still high Work on the recognition and the app will be a steal UpdateUpdate So I ve gotted used to simply using the radical lookup It s quite good I was going to up the stars on this review but then I downloaded the new modules The examples are great worth 5 bucks However the OCR doesn t work at all I ve tried all kinds of different fonts about 20 kanji in all and just one has been right I thought it might be good for train stations with no Furigana but it still has a long way to go UpdatedUpdateUpdate Latest version crashes all the time I have no trouble with ant other app     Dr. Jonathan Fields

ok well this app is the possibly the greatest japanese app out there in general It has every kanji that anyone could ever come upon 6000 about i see some negative reviews for this app and i wonder what the hell were they looking at this is clearly the best i use it just about every day to study kanji and words if you dont like it then you have something wrong with you                     POKEMON Pokaymahn

With Jishop being released this app better cut it s price by about 12 and that still might not be enough because it has twice as many kanji and then some and tons of compounds and so much more depth to the meanings definitions than this app This is a so so beginner kanji app no more than that There s only one Japanese app that costs as much as this one and that s Japanese by Codefromtokyo and it is in a class by itself There is no possible way that anyone could justify the price of this app Unfortunately I got ripped off because the interface looked pretty cool and I had hopes for it which it fails to meet spectacularly If you want an app that does what this one does and plenty more try something like Shinkanji and save yourself 14 or the above mentioned Jishop Which by the way has a free version with 1000 kanji and a 5 version that is waaayyy better than this     Almost Mediocre Thrashre
