Depending on your choice in the panel "Drill range selection", these flashcards will follow the Jōyō Kanji order or the order of the five levels of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test
There are 2141 cards in the database.

Each card displays a kanji, its meaning(s), its common On and Kun readings and up to three compound examples.

You can toggle the visibility of items on the cards with a touch on the various panels.

Suggestion on how to use the flashcards:

• 1) In the Drill range selection panel Select the range of kanji you want to concentrate on.
  
• Hide the meanings and examples and flip through the cards.
  If you think you know the displayed kanji, mark it as "known" with a touch on the +/- icon (toggle).
  Kanji marked as "known" will be excluded from the On, Kun and Meanings drills, until you reset them to the "unknown" state, either individually or in a batch in the Settings panel.
  
  Your choices will be saved in the database and you can safely turn off your iPhone/iPod/iPad,

The application offers four types of multiple choice drills.
1) The Meanings 1 drill displays 4 kanji.
2) The Meanings 2 drill displays 1 kanji and 4 sets of meanings from which to choose from.
3) The Kun-yomi and On-yomi drills display 1 kanji and ask you to choose the correct reading(s).

Whenever you make a mistake, you can have a look at the corresponding card with a touch on the eye icon.
You can do the same with the correct answer, display the corresponding card and mark the kanji as known if you wish to exclude it from future drills.

In the "Encore!" stack, you will find kanji you should concentrate on.

As you go through the drills, the program memorizes the wrong choices you made, together with the kanji you should have chosen.

The behavior of the cards is the same as in the Flashcards / Review stack : you will be able to hide or display the meanings and examples with a touch on the panels (toggle).

You can also mark kanji as "known" in order to exclude them from future drills, until you reset them to the "unknown" state.

The cards in the Encore stack are displayed in an endless loop, whether you use the Next or Previous buttons.

If you wish to keep track of your progress, you can save your scores by taking a screenshot of the Report screen.

• 1. Hold down the home button.
• 2. Briefly press the sleep/wake button on the top of the phone.

The screen will flash momentarily, you will hear the sound of the iPhone camera shutter opening and closing, signifying the picture has been taken.

You can transfer these screenshots to your computer (see your device manual).
