It would be nice to have an option to start by directly prompting a kanji with an empty canvas, and only going through the learning steps if we mess up on the first encounter.

For people that already learnt kanji by recognition (which should be a majority), this would speed up the learning process tremendously, especially for the simpler kanji.

Not something I want to do, but something I have to do, since Microsoft is dropping support for Xamarin...

Need to figure out a way to do this without a bad user experience. Idea: Add new options for "fail immediately" and "default success state"

Apparently software that does a better job than Google TTS for pronouncing kanji. I should try it and see if it's a good replacement.

When writing Kanji, I would like to see an option to have the on’yomi words in katakana, instead of having everything in hiragana.

Curently backups are saved in hard to access directories, and involve connecting to a computer to transfer them between devices.

Having an option to export the backup through the device's share menu (like send to mail, send to Telegram, etc, or simply to save the file to a place of your choice) like many other apps do, would make it a lot easier when using multiple devices.

First, would like to thank you for Ringotan, I'm using it daily and it's helping me a lot! Best part is I'm not getting tired of it and I'm keeping my efforts ^^

I use Satori reader, and I want to hide the furigana for the kanji that I learned on Ringotan.

It would be enough to copy the list on the clipboard for further editing maybe in some notepad app.

Another possibility is saving some file in an easily accessible location. In the case of iOS, something that can be accessed with the Files app would be best. But

I'm not sure if it's a bug but currently even with the snap feature disabled our own line is visually replaced at every stroke, rather than only when we go off the mark. Worst of all, after getting it correctly there's no way to compare our own full written character to what the correct one was (seeing an animation of the original vs your drawing can be quite eye opening).

So what's been happening is that some times I have the feeling I'm not being totally accurate but can't really tell because as soon as I lift my pencil my

I think altering the initial auto-pronunciation to {word} の {kanji}    e.g.  「べんり」の「り」   would be much more helpful than just sounding the word itself.

Reason being:

When words with multiple kanji come up, you can't tell from the initial audio which part is being taught / asked for.

I think this is helping to cause false associations - e.g. having to write 便 or 利 after hearing べんり makes the two kanjis' readings more difficult to keep separate and therefore easier to confuse.It also negates many of the advantages of the audio when you always need to look at the

Hi! I wonder if it would be possible to add a menu option: search in dictionary It would link to external websites or to existing apps on the android device

For example, "Japanese Kanji Study" is a very detailed app. And it would really be great if it can be opened at the right page for the kanji we are studying with ringotan. When we are learning a kanji, we could click on "additional lookup" and click on one option: - jisho.org - kanji koohii - weblio.jp - kanji study app (if installed) - ...

Not sure if kanjivg supports these, but could just add the most common ones manually

Something like "While Ringotan can be used on its own, it works best as a supplementary resource alongside something like Wanikani or Genki"

Something like "come back tomorrow", "keep a regular cadence", etc.

Please consider adding an option to add custom kanji decks rather than only providing the preset decks to study from. I would like to be able to export kanji learned through jpdb.io through their api and be able to study them in Ringotan. Ideally, this import would be done automatically by interfacing with a Ringotan api but any functionality for custom decks would be extremely useful. If there isn't a planned api for Ringotan, a simple interface where the user would paste all kanji to be included in the custom deck would work. Alternatively, Ringotan could read from a text

I can practice the base 46 hiragana but it would be really helpful to be able to practice the other dakuon/yoon as well (for sounds like cha, pa, gu etc)

Sometimes it's really hard to tell if your completed answer has any small visual mistakes, even if you've successfully passed the question. (Optionally) showing the completed user kanji drawing after a successful question would really help with improving the last few inaccuracies I run into when handwriting.

This is not my idea, this is the idea of someone on the android store. But I thought it was a good idea to mention it, just for completion.

The basic idea is to give the user a second chance for Kanji which are really complicated. Maybe in form of a "Second Chance" button, which the user can activate in the options. Maybe some other method?
