Supreme Japanese Learning Tool
I have been using Midori (and many other Japanese dictionary apps as well) for quite some time now. The unsurpassed strengths of this app are IMHO:
- Most example sentences of any app so far. When learning the vocabulary for e.g. JLPT4 many other similar apps are missing examples of some words. It is really hard to understand the use of a new word without example sentences
- Japanese names for people and places. No other app is able to properly look them up
- Great translation mode that allows to paste a complete Japanese sentence and get a list of the contained Japanese words _without_ losing the overview an the sentence itself. No other app is able todo this in such a superb way.
- Shows important info for vocabulary like "honorific language" or "transitive verb" or "godan verb". Some other apps also do this but not all of them.
Now for the things I am still missing:
- A good flash card learning mode. The one implemented is rather rudimentary. It has space repetition system, yes but it does not allow to open the complete word entry with all information out of the flash card mode. That is quite cumbersome, so for flash card learning I still keep to the apps "Japanese" and "StickyStudy".
But anyhow, this app is great and worth its money!!!
