Hiragana Katakana Starter is a tool created to help you learn Japanese hiragana and katakana. This tool starts off by teaching you hiragana a few characters at a time. There are a few different test modes so you don't get bored. Once you've mastered hiragana the tools will move on to katakana with the same process.

It is recommended that you use this application before moving onto Kana Draw to finalize your knowledge with written skills.

Feature highlights include:

★ Hiragana and Katakana;
★ Tier based progression to help learn in steps;
★ Smart character delivery that targets your weaker character knowledge;
★ Different modes or games to help make learning fun;
★ Character matrix for quick review;

I am still testing 1 additional modes that will be released as soon as the bugs are worked out.

FAQ

Many have brought up the fact that ぢ and づ characters are not working when input is 'ji' and 'dzu' respectively. The reason for this is that if you want to create this characters on a qwerty keyboard you can't type 'ji' and 'dzu'. You must type 'di' and 'du'. Sorry for the confusion and limitation.
