About

You know the Japanese word. You still miss it when someone says it at normal speed. notaps Words turns commutes, walks, chores, and bedtime into hands-free Japanese listening practice. Open the app and words start playing: the word first, then a real sentence using it. Look when you can. Listen when you cannot. No account and no streak to defend. ■ Start with a free set of words Try the complete learning loop before paying. After the free set, one purchase unlocks every level and unlimited pronunciation practice forever. No subscription. No ads. ■ Japanese vocabulary from JLPT N5 to N1 Move from beginner words into intermediate and advanced vocabulary. JLPT levels help you choose the right material. Pitch-accent information is shown where available. ■ Hear the word in a real sentence Every card includes an example sentence. Turn the phone sideways to move from the word to context. Practise writing Japanese words in kana, kanji or romaji. ■ Practice pronunciation in private Listen to the model, speak into the microphone, and get a score immediately. Slow the model down when a sound is unclear, then try again. ■ Remember before it fades Words return at widening intervals. A memory check shows what is fading and what to review next, using your own study history rather than a generic reminder. ■ Built for offline study Words and sentences are stored on the device. After the required voices and language packs are downloaded, you can listen offline. See the privacy policy for how usage is measured. ■ Learn Words in Conversation The new conversation mode pairs every word with a short everyday chat, so you learn what it means and how it's used. ■ Japanese is the focus here; 20 languages are included You can also learn English, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Turkish, Polish, Dutch, and Ukrainian in any supported language pair. notaps is not a grammar course. It is for making words recognizable at real speed, with fewer taps and more listening.
