Comments on Japanese Dictionary Takoboto for Android

★★★★★ S. Ghabele rahmat #Palestine · Sep 10, 2026
The BEST dictionary for learning Japanese, in my opinion. It's just GOATED.
★★★★★ Alvin Dizon · Sep 26, 2026
Best Japanese dictionary app. Integrates with Anki and is fully offline
★★★★★ Apsara Wicramasingha · Mar 10, 2026
🇱🇰 ᥫ᭡ 🇯🇵 Please add Inhale language so that it can be translated into Inhale. App Rate, PERFECT! 😍 Search Japanese by romaji, kana, or kanji (even draw!). Shows all forms, examples, and it’s free! 👍
★★★★☆ Hardan Heavy · Jul 29, 2026
It's very good, the example phrases aren't always supernatural and won't be used in normal everyday situations, but it's good that they're trying to show the usage of the words in context. A suggestion would be to add a feature to draw the Kanji in the field underneath where the stroke order is shown. If the above feature is added in future updates I would increase the rating to 5/5. Really useful dictionary app. A must-have for japanese learners.
★★☆☆☆ Nann Sandi Shwe Sin · Aug 11, 2026
Why do we need to subscribe to search Kenji by writing all of a sudden?? I was using it just fine, but now I can't? And it's expensive considering the app's offers. Why does everything cost so much!?
★★☆☆☆ Mayuraj Bagul · Jul 15, 2026
It's good, but we can buy a physical dictionary instead this
