Listing changes AppTracker has observed for this app in this storefront — new versions, price moves, rating shifts, and store copy.
A tidy-up, with apologies to everyone who holds their phone sideways. • Bug: on iPhone in landscape, Restore Purchase and the legal links hid below the screen with no way to scroll to them. Fix: the unlock screen scrolls now, so nothing hides. • Bug: the first handwriting check squeezed the writing area into a strip about as tall as a grain of rice. Fix: you get a proper writing box on every screen. • Bug: finger writers who scored 91 got the tip "Focus on Pressure", from a finger that has no pressure to give. Fix: pressure tips are for Apple Pencil only, and fingers no longer get fake compliments on their grip either. • Bug: Progress said "100 XP needed for Level 1" to people already on Level 1. Fix: it now counts down to the next level, like a sensible progress bar. • Bug: a word with a missing translation showed a blank meaning. Fix: it falls back to English instead of staring at you. Plus a sturdier save file, so your progress survives even if the app has a bad day.

About
Write beautifully in any script. Inkla helps you learn to write Japanese, Chinese, Hindi and more, one letter, word and sentence at a time, with clear models, guided practice and feedback after every attempt. WRITE IN 8 LANGUAGES • Choose the language you practice separately from the app language: English, French, German, Spanish, Romanian, Japanese hiragana, a starter set of 60 Simplified Chinese characters, or Hindi in Devanagari. • Keep the app in English and learn to write Japanese: stroke-by-stroke instructions stay in your language. • Made for adults picking up a new script, bilingual families, heritage languages and curious young writers. LEARN WITH RESEARCH-BACKED METHODS • Meaning Quiz: 10 quick questions. Read it, hear it, then write it from memory. • Words come back on later days until you know them for good. The quiz follows well-studied learning methods: spaced review, practice testing and writing from memory. WORD EXPLORER • See what every word and sentence means in your language, and hear how every letter sounds. • Hear it read aloud at normal or slow speed, with pinyin, romaji or Hindi romanization alongside. • Sentences break down word by word, with short grammar notes and memory tricks for characters. • Tap any word to practice writing it. BETTER HANDWRITING, STEP BY STEP • Follow letter formation steps in print and joined cursive for Latin letters. • Get feedback on shape, spacing, line control, pressure and rhythm. Pressure feedback depends on the input device; Apple Pencil and finger practice both work. • Mirror-letter mix-ups such as b and d are spotted, so reversals get caught early. • Try words, sentences, silly stories, postcards and other creative writing. • Progress is saved per language, and each one picks up where you left off. FOR CHILDREN AND PARENTS • Kids learn letter formation with clear models and short, guided steps. • Follow practice history for each language in the parent dashboard and export a PDF summary when you choose. • Purchases, links, sharing and resetting progress ask a grown-up first. PRIVATE, SIMPLE AND YOURS Try Inkla free for 7 days, then unlock it with a one-time in-app purchase. No subscription or ads. No account required. Practice is stored on your device; you control any exported reports. Audio uses the voices built into your device. If a language's voice isn't installed, you can add it in iOS Settings. Inkla is a practice tool, not a diagnosis or a full language course. Its progress indicators can support a conversation with a teacher. Works on iPhone and iPad.
