About

Jisoku Dict — Japanese, made effortless. Every word. Every kanji. Right in your pocket. No signal required. Whether you're stumbling through your first hiragana chart or polishing your JLPT N1, Jisoku Dict is the Japanese dictionary that just works — fast, offline, and designed to fit the way you actually learn. Look up anything. From anywhere. Type a word in English, Japanese, or even romaji — we'll figure it out. Searching from the bullet train, on a flight, or in the basement at work? Doesn't matter. The full dictionary lives right on your device, so you're never waiting on a signal. Snap a photo. Get the meaning. Stuck on a menu? Confused by a sign? Just point your camera. Jisoku Dict reads the Japanese for you and turns every word on the page into a tap-to-look-up link. Your photos never leave your phone. Hear it the way it's meant to sound. Visual pitch graphs show you the natural rise and fall of every word, so 箸 (chopsticks) never gets confused with 橋 (bridge) again. Sound like a native, not a textbook. Type the way people actually talk. 食べて. 行った. Search for words the way they show up in real conversations — Jisoku Dict finds the dictionary form for you and tells you exactly which conjugation you typed. Learn to write, one stroke at a time. Watch any kanji come to life. Slow it down. Loop it. Flip through every stroke at your own pace, or see the whole order at a glance. Make it stick. Turn anything you look up into a flash card. Review with quick daily sessions, complete with stroke-order practice on the back of every kanji card. Optional reminders keep you showing up. Yours, on every device. Favorite the words and kanji you want to keep. Everything syncs across your Apple devices with iCloud, so your vocabulary list is wherever you are. Offline. On device. On your side. The complete dictionary — over 200,000 words and 13,000 kanji — lives entirely on your phone. No accounts. No waiting. No internet needed.きれいじゃない
