GENKI Vocab Cards for 2nd Ed. for Negative User Reviews
✓ LackingIf you have to pay, why doesn't this come with speech interaction. The menu feels a little too creative. The ages are good, but the system doesn't have a user friendly interface. Also where's the hiragana and katakana practice section. Sadly, I won't be recommending this to anyone. -- Needs a lot of improvement as a paid flash card app..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Horrifically overpricedI got this and another genki app and completely regret it. I just found the interface really stubborn to navigate. There used to be a really good flashcard app and i thought this would be like that. For what they give you this is hardly worth the cost, especially if you already have the textbooks. I thought this would just be an easier way to study the genki vocab but its not. Very much regret this purchase..Version: 3.0.2
✓ No soundGreat app but no sound..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Sound not workingWould rate this 4 if it not for the sound stopped working in os 13. Good visuals in this..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Almost great...Should be able to customize your own deck with different words from each lesson. Also, it would've been nice if they've included all the vocab words from each chapter. At least all the ones that are included in the book's audio..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Keeps crashingAs I go through my deck the app periodically crashes while letting me know I'm finished X number of cards and have X number to go before I finish. I keep checking the App Store for an update to solve this ~ otherwise it's a good app~ cool way to memorize the vocab without making your own flash cards :).Version: 2.1.1
✓ No soundThe volume doesn’t work, I can’t hear any of the words in the lessons. Not worth paying for..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Horrible appHorrible app please refund.Version: 3.0.2
✓ Add quizzes pleaseI love the idea of being able to learn more vocab without having to carry around my genki book. I am very disappointed that this app and their kanji app doesn't have a game or quiz section with multiply choice or something to see if you actually remember. A bit expensive for something missing games and quizzes..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Today's UpdateLove the app, but after today's update I can no longer hear the pronunciation of the vocabulary. Please fix..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Not worth the price.This app isn't "expensive", but it offers too little features. Yes I enjoy that it aligns with the Genki textbook, but I can get the same vocabulary words from Quizlet. Yes, they have Genki sets and honestly a better interface--for free! It works offline too. I love Quizlet's "learn" feature and little quizzes as well as the star system. On this Genki app, the features are not very user friendly and just basic. Just get Quizlet..Version: 2.2.0
✓ List of vocabulary essentially bricked.The most recent update of the app has, for reasons unknown, removed the touch-to-scroll alphabet within the vocabulary list, rendering it completely useless. Every time you start up the app, you will be forced to scroll through the entire list, all the way from 'A' in english or ’あ’ in 日本語 every time you want to look up any vocabulary. Had I known this would be implemented, I never would have bought the app. This change should be rectified immediately..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Outdated & crashesYou’re better off making your own flash cards. Pros: Lists vocab in alphabetical english and in Japanese. there are example sentences on the backside of the cards. Good for studying on the go. Most cards have pictures. You can hear the vocab and example sentences. Cons For $5 we should at least be getting an SRS system. The vocab “tests” are under “check my deck.” And it’s hardly a test. More so shuffled flash cards. The system is outdated and always crashes. They’ve just upgraded this app for Genki 3rd edition and they missed an opportunity to catch up to other apps and services like Quizlet, Wanikani, and Bunpro. This app isn’t ready to help you memorize the vocab. It’s just here to make money..Version: 3.0.4
✓ Okay...The app helps with memorizing the dictionary form only. I would like there to be long form, short form, and te form conjugation to be able to see the way the words are used. Also, I would like to see a different form of test along with the current version. Maybe a multiple choice of the differing forms and how they would be utilized..Version: 2.1.1
✓ OkBut the thing is you thought I would BUY your book AND THEN, PAY for your MULTIPLE APPS??? Nah. No way. Idk why they wouldn’t all be in one app. This app could instantly beam the language into my skull and I still wouldn’t give five stars. Okay, maybe I would cuz that would be cool, but YALL STILL GOT ME MESSED UP..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Good cards but..No sound?? At all. Anywhere..Version: 1.0.1
✓ New Update Broke AppUsed to work well but new update stopped English words from showing at all..Version: 3.0.4
✓ Fine but missing spaced repFirst the person the rated down cause no iPad support is wrong. It's optimized for iPhone but works on iPad just like it says. It's just not scaled up for iPad (yet) That being said the program is great but missing 1 very key feature which is spaced repetition. Sadly all the audio files, sentences, pictures and vocab in the world won't make this a useable app till they add spaced repetition. Save yourself the Money for now and check back often for spaced repetition addition. Tip to developers: vocabulary apps are useless without spaced repetition option..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Not impressedThis app is totally useless. I want my money back :(.Version: 2.1.1
✓ SoundThe sound applications does not work on any of the apps which does not help me when I'm trying to practice hearing it. I really only bought the flash cards so I could practice hearing it because my CD that came with my book was ruined while being shipped. Uninstalling it didn't make the sound work! Really unsatisfied..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Add dictionary form to the verbsIt would be nice if the verbs were not in the te form so it would be easier to know the dictionary form, because in many cases you cant tell. But other than that the app is useful.Version: 3.0.2
✓ AudioAudio has been broken for a while. Tried reinstalling. Nothing. FIX IT..Version: 3.0.4
✓ DisappointedThe app has no sound..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Basically good but frequent crashes!This app is quite basic yet well suited to review the vocabulary from the books. A spaced repetition approach for reviewing would be nice though. Unfortunately I cannot give more stars right now since the app frequently crashes (~40% of cases) on my IPhone 5 IOS 8.1 on the transition between vocabulary subsets (swiping into a new chapter subsection). Please fix!.Version: 2.1.0
✓ Functionality lackingWhile the flash card system is great - once you say you know a word it disappears- to review all words again you must reset. Would be great if there was a quiz or something as opposed to “turning off” the words gotten right. Reviewing is just as important as getting to know..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Expensive for the ContentFor the price, they could have added a Roma-ji option and more quizzes and exercises. There are some other apps for Japanese language learners like Anki and KanjiBox that you can make your own Genki vocabulary list with many options. It would be okay if this app were not this much expensive, but I think this Genki app does not worth for the price..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Initially the sound didn't playSo I followed these steps to fix it: (1) Close all applications. (2) Flick the mute switch (on the left side of the iPhone) off and on. (3) Restart the iPhone. (4) Flick the mute switch off and on. (5) Open GENKI Vocab Cards. This app has pros and cons. PROS * All the vocabulary of both GENKI I and GENKI II, 2nd edition. * Divided in lessons corresponding to the chapters of the books. * The cards are illustrated with the illustrations from the book. * Each card has an audio button that sounds the pronunciation of the word/phrase. * Easy to use user interface. CONS * There's no SRS, and even the 'shuffle mode' doesn't work. This makes this app moderately good for learning each lessons vocab for the first time, but not for long-term reviewing..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Audio doesn't workThe whole reason I bought this app instead of using Anki decks was for the audio. Looking at the reviews, it seems that this has been an issue for over a year and that the developer probably just doesn't care enough to fix it. Save your money and use another SRS system..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Was working fine until the latest updateThere’s a bug in the check feature where the text is white so you can’t see it since it’s on a white background. Please fix, thank you!!.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Ok App but need improvingIt a ok app. Once you learnt the words it make reading the textbook dialogue a lot easier. However the App is not optimised for newer iPhones displays (iPhone 10 or newer) and iPads displays. It would be great if there was a option to change the font size. As I’m using a iPhone Mini and it bit too small. Also if you press the sound when flipping through the cards too quickly it will crash between sets. FYI a lot people say there is no sound. But it not true. There is only no sound if the iPhone is on silent. I think the same thing happening with the 3rd Edition App too, although I don’t own the app so I’m not sure..Version: 3.0.4
✓ Sound in inoperableUnable to get support on a paying app This is not acceptable Would revise my review positively if problem is solved. The app is a good flash card system. Sound is a must..Version: 3.0.2
✓ RipoffSound does not work. Save your money and do not buy..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Not for beginnersI was disappointed to find out that there is no way to study the terms written in romanji so I cannot use this set to study as a beginner. Only good for pronunciation but it is not effective enough to be worth $6..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Could Be A Lot BetterIt's nice having this to go along with the genki books and it's great having pronunciation on the cards too but the review system is worthless. There's no randomization while reviewing and it also lacks a spaced repetition system. Using the genki decks on Anki is much better, although that app costs 4 times as much and doesn't have audio playback like this..Version: 2.2.0
✓ No sound :(The sound doesn’t work but not bad otherwise. The English translation of the app’s options could also be improved..Version: 3.0.2
✓ No instructions, tabs don’t activateThere are no instructions anywhere as to how this works. You tap around but nothing happens. Waste of money and I want a refund..Version: 3.0.0
✓ No SoundNo sounds. Completely useless.Version: 3.0.4
