Share menu for Backup export
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.

Better support for Jinmeiyou kanji
A handful of jinmeiyou kanji aren't used in any actual words (making them not currently supported). And a lot of the ones that are are so rare we shouldn't be using them as prompts. It'd be better to use names for prompts instead, the way they're actually used.
Some examples: 燿藥覽偖凭剌哥嗽嘸嚏囀嫋屹掏捩焜犇皰稍窶綽罅聊臘蜀齎跣踉蹌軈閊靨鞦韆飩饂暝

Support for more kana, and romaji for kanji pronunciations
It covers the basic hiragana and katakana which is good, but it doesn't cover voiced syllables, i.e. going from ka to ga. It would be useful having them all in one place instead using this app for the basic ones and elsewhere for the others. Would it also be worth adding the smaller versions as well? Even though they're the same, getting the size right would be important too, especially to be able to write つ and っ properly so they're differentiable for example.
Also, would be nice to see romaji added to kanji pronunciations as well, especially since it

Additional lesson plan/book source : Nihongo Soumatome
Hi, I use Nihongo Soumatome as my main textbook for Kanji and others. It would be helpful if you can add lesson plan based on this book. Thank you!

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

Sort by Number of Strokes
It would be super helpful if in the Custom Review screen it were possible to sort by the number of strokes in each Kanji.
My usual approach to learning new Kanji is to browse for any Kanji that are made up components I've already learned but currently this involves a lot of scrolling and a lot of missed possibilities. If it were possible to sort by the number of strokes in the Custom Review screen it would pretty much guarantee that any new Kanji I pick is either made of components I already know or something irreducible that I will

Support for multiple decks
Hi, would it be possible to support learning from multiple decks at the same time? For example, I want to learn both the kanji from Tobira and Quartet at the same time.

Custom study for Sensei-level kanjis
Is it possible to add an option to custom study only kanjis you've reached Sensei level on? Similar to WaniKani that has an option to study all your Burned kanji randomly. Also, as a follow up, what exactly reaching Sensei means? Do they still come back to reviews after some time?

Find some more common hyougai kanji
According to this question, the word 朦朧 is fairly common, but neither kanji is included in Ringotan. It seems neither the word nor kanji are listed as common in our dictionaries, but ロス先生 confirmed that it is. So, let's find more data sources that include this information.
Apparently JPDB lists it as common. Where do they get their information from?

Custom study: Sort by Last Failed (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

Account system e-mail/pass login OR facebook-google options
I suggest making an account system, a simple one to log-in via e-mail and pass.
Since ringotan will become paid figure something out so only one free account per ip for example or something and so on.. This will help save progress if a device is lost.

Better reviewing when fsiled
The main problems I have with reviewing a kanji is that if I forget what the kanji looks like and therefore fail, it immediately goes to the step with the green dots where it feels like it's wasting my time. I already know where the start points are, and you either have to do that just to eventually do it without any guide on screen or mark it as "just learned" to skip it to the next day. Maybe it could be a toggle in the settings that it doesn't immediately go back to the one with the green dots,

Add new tutorial popup for "kanji that looks different when printed"
I've had feedback from a few users who thought that kana/kanji like り, 心, 令 etc. were being prompted incorrectly because the prompt looks different than the printed character. When one of these shows up, we should give a tutorial popup to let them know.

"Wrap up session" option in three-dot menu
Adding an option to wrap up a session, i.e. emptying the queue of kanji not yet touched on within the session, leaving only those kanji in the session's queue I already started answering.
This is useful when you start a session, but get tired in the middle of it and still don't want to lose progress on those kanji you already started answering.

Separate "after studying" screen
Right now after studying it goes straight back to the review screen. It would be nice to instead see a new screen showing what you learned during the lesson and how you improved (or not!)
