Hi everyone,

I am a solo dev who in the last several months worked on the app Mojigari that turns any japanese text into a learning session and kanji and grammar cards collection. Each kanji has a rarity tier based on JLPT classification (N5 very common, N1 rare). Features include text analysis with furigana reading, glossary, sentence-structure breakdown, belt-ranked SRS dojo, grammar drilling, daily kanji booster packs and more.

The web version is live at https://mojigari.com/

As a side note, payment links for premium accounts are not yet working, I will activate them in production phase.

As you are already familiar with, I am in the process of preparing the app for the Google Play Store. For passing the closed tests I am looking for testers who are willing to opt-in for the required period (14 days from when at least 12 testers opted in).
Installation on your device and a minimum of daily use (open the app once a day for example) will be needed.

I am willing to exchange the favor by testing your apps as well if you are in the same phase.

If you are interested, I created a Google Group dedicated to this project. You can join on link below :
https://groups.google.com/u/2/g/mojigari---japanese--kanji

EDIT: Finally I got the opt-in link working 😄
Here it is : https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.mojigari.app

Click "Become a tester" with the Google account on your Android phone. Give it ~15 min, then open the Play Store and search "Mojigari." DM me your Google account email first if you want, I'll add you to the tester list (otherwise the link won't work for accounts that aren't already on the list).

Thank you very much for your attention.
Have a great day!

Hi everyone!

I'm a solo dev who's been building a Japanese learning app called Mojigari (文字狩り — "kanji hunting") for the past several months, and I'm getting ready to launch on the Google Play Store.

Before I do, I'm looking for a few people from this community who'd be willing to try it out and tell me what's working and what isn't.

If you'd like to try it: the web version is live at https://mojigari.com and I'm recruiting closed testers for the Android Play Store release.

A bit of honest backstory: I started learning Japanese a few years ago and bounced off of every kanji method I tried, WaniKani felt too rigid, Anki decks felt joyless, and reading native material was overwhelming because I couldn't tell which kanji were worth studying first.

I'm an architect by training who pivoted to finance and software dev, and the kanji-as-collectibles idea came from missing the tangible satisfaction of building something tactile.

So I built an app that treats every kanji as a card with a rarity tier (N5 common → N1+ mythical), and the loop is: paste any Japanese text you actually care about → the app analyzes it → the kanji you discover become cards in your collection → you train them in a belt-ranked SRS dojo.

It works with your own texts. Songs, manga lines, news headlines, a random tweet you don't understand, paste it in, get furigana, an interactive glossary, and a Deep Analysis breakdown showing how the sentence is built (particles, cutting words, compound verbs, etc.). The library has curated texts too (haiku, folk tales, song lyrics) for when you don't have something on hand.

It's aimed at beginners through upper intermediate/advanced (roughly late N5 through N2).

It's privacy-first (no tracking, no analytics), and there's a generous free tier with optional Premium for full access.

A few other things in it: a daily booster pack mechanic, a Discovery feature that introduces 2 grammar patterns + 3 kanji per session with a synthesis quiz to distinguish similar patterns, opt-in stroke-order writing practice, JLPT promotion exams, and audio playback. There's also a small contemplative feature coming in the next update where unlocking achievements gives you a curated haiku paired with an ukiyo-e print — a nod to the cultural side of the language that most apps skip.

Drop a comment or DM me if you're interested. I read every piece of feedback — there are "send me a note" links throughout the app for exactly this reason, and the data sources, dictionary edge cases, and grammar database are all built around real user reports.

If it's not for you, no worries — but I'd love to hear what works and what doesn't from people who actually study this stuff seriously.

Thanks for reading.

Hello everybody!

Today I want to share with you a solo dev project on which I worked for theast several months.

I created a mobile app called Mojigari, today working via browser. Here it is: https://mojigari.com/

The app was born from my issue to learn kanji in an effective way, so I thought of kanji learning by treating each one as a collectible card with different rarity levels (like pokemon cards).

You can find kanji cards in multiple ways :

- text analysis and texts can come from a curated library I created and I keep updated or from whatever text the user wants to copy/paste, with furigana reading, interactive glossary and deep analysis on phrasing structure;

- daily kanji booster packs that make the user discover 5 new kanji a day;

- Discovery function that makes the user discover 2 grammar rules and 3 kanji each time.

There is much more in it, the scope being a complementary tool for Japanese Learning aiming at advanced beginners and up.

I hope you enjoy it! Let me know your feedbacks and DM if you want to know more or if you would like to participate in the closed testing on Google Play Console.

Thank you for your attention.

Best,

Marco
