1. 5/5An incredibly helpful and useful Japanese learning tool

   I'm a beginner in learning Japanese and found myself looking for ways to slowly improve my Japanese reading skills and came across Yomu Yomu. Yomu Yomu provides readily available Japanese stories to read regardless of your Japanese level. You can read beginner stories, advanced stories, and even expert stories, allowing you to test your Japanese reading skills regardless of your Japanese level. Each story contains translations of words and allows assistance in reading Kanji words so even if you get lost in a story, your able to quickly understand words that threw you off. I'm surprised that this go-to learning tool hasn't been notified by the language acquisition community, because this app is incredibly helpful.

2. 5/5Phenomenal!

   I’ve downloaded many fine Japanese learning apps from the App Store, but Yomu Yomu is easily the best for someone like me who can read Kana and has a basic understanding of Japanese grammar and who now just needs a bunch of easy stuff to read. It makes reading enjoyable by hiding information and then revealing it when you need it with a simple tap. It also has audio and spaced repetition flash cards. AND you can enlarge the font size for both the main text and the Furigana if you have vision problems. It’s a very thoughtfully produced app and I commend its creators.

3. 5/5Well done — hoping for more!

   I’m currently at an N2 reading level. Since leaving Japan, I’ve been hoping to find ways to keep up my Japanese language skill. This app has been such a blessed find! The content is stuff I actually care to read, so it doesn’t feel like effort to study. Love that you can save words to review with in-app flashcards, too! Can’t say enough good things. Really hope this app gets more attention and resources dedicated to it. Keep it up! ☺️

4. 5/5Amount of content

   I’m a self study learner and this app has been the best way to put everything I’m learning to practice while having resources that help me get it right and the flashcards for words I really want to hammer home makes it even better and practicing reading makes the vocabulary drills feel more relevant than learning them from a textbook. One of the best resources in my lineup that allows me to see the progress I’m making.

5. 5/5Great app for studying Kanji

   I have been studying Japanese seriously for 1 year now. I have a basic understanding of grammar, and I can read hiragana and katakana. This app is quickly growing my ability and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn Japanese quickly! Let me tell you, reading is very important in the Japanese language if you would ever like to visit Japan. There are plenty of signs that have 0 English on them.
