About GENKI Kanji Cards
Learn basic kanji through kanji words:
GENKI Kanji Cards is a digital card app that helps users become able to recognize 317 basic kanji by studying more than 1,100 kanji words at their own pace!
This is the second official app to be released for “GENKI: An Integrated Course in Elementary Japanese,” a best-selling series of Japanese learning materials boasting more than 1.2 million copies sold.
Advantages
◆ Users can view the cards as they like, enabling them to study at their own pace.
◆ By repeating a process of memorization and self-checking, learners can master readings of kanji words and recognition of basic kanji.
◆ Cards already mastered are progressively removed from the card deck, so users can concentrate on just the kanji that challenge them, making for a more efficient approach to learning.
Study methods and functions
◇ “MyDeck” allows users to view the cards over and over, so they can take their time learning.
・Users memorize the kanji by freely displaying or hiding each card’s kanji word or reading.
・The cards in MyDeck can be shuffled.
・Basic information on the target kanji is provided on the back of each card.
・Fun illustrations and mnemonic hints help users to better retain the kanji studied.
(The illustrations and hints are taken from the very popular learning resource “Kanji Look and Learn.”)
・The stroke order of each kanji is shown with animation.
◇ “Check” helps learners to track their mastery.
・Users check their understanding of the cards studied and sort them into those mastered and those not yet retained.
・Retention can be checked by going from Reading to Kanji, or vice-versa.
・The cards already mastered are taken out of the set, leaving behind just those that still need to be worked on.
◇ “List” displays a list of all the words and kanji covered by the app so that users can see their progress and review them.
・In the lists arranged in lesson order, a-i-u-e-o order, or alphabetical order, checkmarks are automatically placed next to words that have been mastered. The cards can be displayed from the list entries, enabling quick review.
・Kanji information on the cards can be displayed from the entries in the On/Kun list.
○This app is based on the kanji and kanji words learned in the second edition of GENKI.
○It functions the same as the iPhone version of GENKI Kanji Cards.
○The stroke order animations may not run properly on some devices/platforms. If this occurs, try restarting your device.
○Ads: The app does not display any ads that might interfere with learning.
○GENKI Vocab Cards, another Android app based on the GENKI textbook, is also available.

This app is very helpful to me as I am a student using the Genki 2 textbook currently. This assures I'm learning the kanji that I need for school, rather than other kanji not relevant to me at this time. My only complaint is that I can't hide the English words in Reading mode, and I know that sometimes I am just translating the word instead of actually remembering the kanji reading. I would love to have a mechanism to hide/unhide the English word, the same way you can hide/unhide the hiragana reading. I do love being able to flip the card over and see different readings ad well as the stroke order and mnemonic pictures though :) I definitely will continue to use this app, but I hope to see it update in the future

Genki is by far one of the best Japanese learning resources out there. Used this for my college class and I'm now at an intermediate level in Japanese. Get both Genki 1 & 2!!!!

Awesome app. I've used all of the Genki apps for iPhone and have been waiting for them all to be released for Android, so I'm just waiting for the conjugation app. I used to use these on the subway on my way to and from class and they helped so much. There are some free flash card apps out there if you can't afford these, but I'd definitely recommend spending the money for these as the quality and convenience of a companion app that goes with your textbook is worth it.

Remove English meaning from this mode. I can't tell if I'm remembering the reading because I actually know the kanji, or because I can see the English on my screen and translate that instead.

The app doesn't do much and is expensive.

There are no clear instructions. No obvious method for choosing either the correct hiragana sound or English definition for a displayed Kanji character, or to write the correct Kanji for either the English word or Hiragana spelling. You choose the card deck based on lesson number from the books. Then, start the deck. It shows the English meaning, the hiragana spelling, and a blank where the Kanji will go. You tap on the blank, and the Kanji appears. How does this help learn Kanji? How is this a "flash card"? If I want to just see Kanji characters, their meaning, and pronunciation, I can look in the Genki textbooks. A flash card app is supposed to give the student a way to input an answer - either the sound or definition of a Kanji, or the Kanji for a sound and/or definition. This app seems to offer neither. Or, if it does, does not make it clear how to do this.
