Right now, the app displays example compounds entirely in hiragana. For example, if I’m learning 緯, it shows けいい (details) and いど (latitude).

I think it would be much more useful if the compounds were written in kanji while omitting the character being studied. For example:

• Instead of けいい, display 経?
• Instead of いど, display ?度

This way, we can see how the kanji is actually used in real words rather than just memorizing the hiragana reading. Furigana could also be included on top for reading support.

Here is a sample image of what this (could) look like, though there's

Unsure if this is a bug, however I do not see this "put new kanji before review" anywhere in the app despite the play store page claiming it should exist.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled it on a separate device yet I do not see this option there either.

# Edit: It was hidden until a daily new kanji limit is set. It would be helpful to either grey this option out or something similar so that it can be easily found.

Love the app, but it would be far easier to learn Kanji, when I could see the translations in my native language. 

I'd love to have a kanji radicals deck to include in my learning.

I'd make it so much easier and faster for me to memorise more complex kanji (Heisig style ;) ).

I passed N3 years ago, and now coming back to relearn kanji, I found out I'm much better at relearning kanji I had the radicals memorised for the first time.

Please consider adding a Sort by Last Failed search option. This would be very useful to me and probably many other people to be able to grind the Kanjis we struggled with.

For now I'm using the "Most Difficult First" which is also useful, but in some sessions/some cases, Sort by Last Failed would be even more useful. (Both are very useful in different situations)

Thanks in advance! Your app has been of a great help to me so far, I'm grinding my kanji writing skills as this is required for the language school I will be joining in April

Not sure why but when I first downloaded the app and whenever I reset the data and chose Katakana and Tobira, nothing shows up on my lesson plan (the “This Lesson” tab said there are none.) Once I switched the book to genki and back to Tobira, the lessons finally showed up, but now I can’t adjust where I want to start from.

There is tons of great open source data out already, like https://github.com/chanind/hanzi-writer?tab=readme-ov-file and https://github.com/skishore/makemeahanzi and given you already have Ringotan put together, I wonder if feeding this data in wouldn’t be fairly trivial. I can ALMOST replicate Ringotan-like function using this tool https://github.com/krmanik/Anki-xiehanzi to pull from those resources into an Anki deck, but by default they're teaching hanzi by having you draw over the outlines instead of testing you on hanzi like Ringotan does with kanji. I spent a few hours trying to duct tape my way into a solitution, to mixed results. But even if I managed to get

Hi, Is there a way to practice hiragana and katana with dakuten (and handakuten). Sometimes, it is easy to learn having some writing experience. Thank for the awesome and practical app!

While I understand it may not be commonly used anymore, some of us are required to learn it for class. It would be super helpful for those of us that do, if this katakana could be added to the custom lessons.

I saw your blog post describing the algorithm used in this app and I wonder about this difficulty factor. In Anki there seemed to be the whole issue around "ease factor", so much that one of the most used addons modified this. It's an outdated issue with the new FSRS there though.

So what I'd like to ask is, how does your current algorithm behave when you fail a review many times, then start being succesful again? Do the initial failures mean you're forever cursed with short review interval for that specific review, or will it fix itself? I see

Can you add this missing letter please.

Hello there,

Is there anyway I can adjust the "Study" function so that it teaches me one hiragana/katakana "sound group at a time"?

For instance: learning "ka, ki, ku, ke, ko" and practicing those instead of getting 6-9 new letters at a time?

Cheers

For the kanji 緯 the furigana for 緯度 is けい but audio is りくさつ

This is probably a moonshot, but imagine this: I am studying 200 kanji. I want to practice reading those kanji. Ringotan knows what kanji I am studying and maybe connects to a db somewhere that stores all the vocab for various books. It then recommends books that use kanji only up to the point I have studied kanji.

Conversely, we could select books we want to be able to read, and ringotan would make a custom review of all the kanji therein that we need to know.

The third stroke of 倒's start and end are shown correctly (the < like stroke), however it will be marked as incorrect if you do not write it the opposite way it is shown.

I want to keep my settings to give me new kanji as soon as I burn them in WaniKani, but I'm also adding kanji in myself and these often aren't in the WK set. I have to go to settings, change the mode, review the kanji, go back to srttings, and swap it back to WK mode again. Shouldn't it be possible to find all the kanji in the app no matter which mode you're in? And just in case: you do continue reviewing kanji that aren't in the learning mode you're currently in, right? 

In the days field of "Set Daily New Kanji Limit" (when tapping on the enabled "Limit Kanji Per Day" option) I cannot enter decimal numbers.

I cannot enter a point "." to get for example 0.5 days (it just does not enter the point when tapping "." on the phone keyboard) and when I use a comma "," instead, it registers the number as if the comma was not present, e. g. entering "1,5" changes it to 15 days.

Since the default value was 0.5 days I know decimal numbers should be possible. But after changing to an integer I

Some schools in the UK offer Japanese as a subject for GCSE, it would be very useful if there was a choice to arrange the kanji in GCSE order

Currently Ringotan goes up to around 1950 kanji using the Kanji in Context textbook. I'd like to see the rest of the kanji from the book be uploaded to the app. 

How about a vacation mode? Ideally it would work in a way that would freeze all scheduled reviews rather just just push the "vacation" days back and then have them all hit at the same time.
