kanjiryokucha

An iOS front end for kanji.koohii.com (SRS kanji reviews)

Kanji Koohii is a web-based flashcard system for studying the meanings of kanji characters, or rather, keywords that are associated to them. The site uses the Spaced Repetition System to choose which cards you are presented with each day.

Kanji Ryokucha is a native iOS front end to Kanji Koohii in which you don't just get the native feel when reviewing, you can also draw the kanji for the presented keyword and then compare that to the correct kanji. Additionally you can check out an animation showing the stroke order for the kanji (when available), see kanji readings, and refer back to the study page for the kanji in Kanji Koohii.

Kanji Ryokucha also includes a Study phase (enabled by default) where you can relearn failed kanji, and a free non-SRS review feature.
