    Filtering and Ramdomized Review

    TimV · 0 · Posted

    Not sure if it’s possible/allowed, but I’d be happy to pay for these changes if possible!  Every so often I like to review all the Kanji I know. However, to do this with the current filtering options means that I have to work in huge bunches in the custom review section. The selections are either many hundreds at a time if I sort, or 10 with the standard lesson selection.

    Filtering only slightly helps this issue and can become pretty tedious. Additionally, some Kanji might jump from one section to another after a review. To further exacerbate this issue, if

    "Show actual Stroke" Option is showing only the last drawn stroke of a kanji

    PeppenDerReiter · 1 · Last reply by Frosty Wolf

    Hi, first of all: great app so far!

    I noticed however, that when using the "show wrong/actual strokes" button (X on bottom left), only the last drawn stroke of a Kanji is shown. I would like to directly compare all my actual strokes with the "ideal" Kanji to see the deviations

    Unwelcome gift seems wrong

    Satoshi · 0 · Posted

    Hi,

    お土産、おみやげ、is this not rather a welcome gift than an unwelcome or unwanted gift? The translation says "unwelcome gift". 

    Cheers

    Ability to copy the Kanji and Kana pronunciation to clipboard

    NaturalBeef · 0 · Posted

    I'm trying to build out a vocabulary deck on Anki of the kanji examples I'm learning from Ringotan but to be able to input these words into Anki I need to open Anki, put the Japanese keyboard, input that Kanji and it's Hiragana pronunciation, than change to English keyboard, write the translation and so on and so forth for each word. 

    At the top of most kanji there's about 6 example words with different readings, which is great but it also means that for each kanji, if I wanted to add all 6 words to anki, I'd at minimum need

    Can we please get the option for reviews in smaller batches?

    Boulvejak · 0 · Posted

    I have taken a few months off from learning and I have a pile of almost 800 reviews I'm trying to chip away at.

    Current sessions, even set to "few" are almost 20 at a time.  I'm having to make mistakes with most of these as I refresh my memory on each of them.

    The huge review size is making both the time and frustration for each review batch oppressive, especially if I make two mistakes in a row for any item and get dropped into idiot mode.

    Can we get an option for a "Tiny" batch size of 5?

    Option to switch off progressive stroke reveal, and instead display full kanji at the end, with self-marking of correct/incorrect result

    Patrick · 0 · Posted

    Hello - I recently added a comment on an older “problem” post (that had been marked as “solved”) but didn’t see any reply yet, so in case it is exempt from notifications, I wanted to create a new post here.

    The original post is: “Option to reveal answer after drawing”.

    I would like to revive the discussion of this potential feature, as while I understand and appreciate the hesitation from the developer, I still believe it has a lot of value as an optional “advanced mode” for kanji you have already learned to a high degree.

    I will repost my

    The current backup location is inaccessible on some devices

    Android/data cannot be accessed on chrome OS devices due to scoped storage so the backup cannot actually be retrieved. A different accessible folder or choosing where to export would fix this

    Let you choose the folder to save the back up to

    Jeremiah McElroy · 1 · Last reply by David

    Not all users have a computer available, if we could just choose the folder to back up to(or even just save it to a file accessible from the phone like documents) then it would be pretty trivial to save it to a cloud service like google drive.  Having so much work just to back up means users might not backup often enough and lose progress.

    Will it be possible to select two books to study from?

    Claire Barrin · 2 · Last reply by Claire Barrin

    I am about to finish Tobira beginners, I want to switch to the other tobira book, but I’d like to still be interrogated on the first book to maintain my knowledge. Is it possible somehow to select two books or more?

    I know that you can change at will, but (correct me if i am wrong) when I finished my daily study of beginner, even if I switch deck, my lessons to reviews will still be at 0. Meaning that if I want to study the same deck everyday, I can’t go to another one.

    and thanks for that wonderful

    Missing Kanji in Minna no Nihongo Deck

    Tai Vo · 0 · Posted

    Hello,

    I noticed that two kanji are missing in the Minna no Nihongo deck:

    1. 読 (Unit 9)

    2. 妹 (Unit 19)

    Could you please check and add them to the deck? Also, could you consider adding a deck for Soumatome N3 Kanji?

    Thank you for your work and for maintaining this great resource!

    Grade relative length of strokes

    kaizokunokazoku · 0 · Posted

    This may well be more work than it's worth but it would be awesome of Ringotan could tell me when my strokes aren't proportionally correct.

    Even just doing something like sorting the x and y coordinates of the the endpoints of the answer and making sure that the same thing for what the user has drawn so far is a subsequence of that would help a lot!

    Automatically reading out of multiple words

    Jae An · 0 · Posted

    I am finding the first word being read out automatically to be extremely helpful, however I also find myself scrolling through and tapping the words only to hear the different ways the kanji is read in different words.

    For this an option to read out multiple words, either all or once for each different reading of the kanji, would be useful.

    How did the name "Ringotan" come about? Is this たん the 赤ちゃん語 equivalent of さん? And is there any relation to the name 'Tangorin'?

    Add an optional additional level where you can see your raw writing, without any snapping

    RiceYumYum08 · 0 · Posted

    Disclaimer: I realize that this is similar to issues #450 and #431

    But these are years old, and there is some additional things I want to say.

    Sometimes when I forget a kanji, I simply tap and drag where I think the nearest stroke starts, and then the snap then reminds me of how to write the kanji in full.

    Problem is, this isn't really considered "mastery" of the kanji, since I had to be reminded how to write it via "cheating" using the stroke snapping.

    Hence, I think this should be an additional optional final level where this happens,

    View definitions/pronunciations at a glance easier; without needing to press "next"

    RiceYumYum08 · 0 · Posted

    It is a bit inconvenient to need to press the next button to see the other uses of a certain kanji, which increases the time taken to see what they are.

    At the same time, there is a large space at the bottom that is not taken up by the kanji view, nor the definition list, so I thought instead of the definition list being shown horizontally, hidden away by the next/previous arrows, what if, the definitions are placed in cells that is vertically scrollable?

    Excuse my terrible MSPaint drawing, but something like this:
