I've been using this as a vocab supplement alongside other forms of studying, and it's been doing a pretty good job thus far! I haven't tried turning it off yet, but I do wish there were less exercises that relied on the roman alphabet---as that is counter productive in the long run. I also appreciate being able to skip over some of the foundations, unlike in some other apps. I'm a beginner, but not an absolute one, and it's nice to be able to skip over hiragana.

I think this app is perfect for reviewing words. Might not work as well as flashcards but it's more fun and I wanna keep coming back to it! The only thing I don't like is when you have to writing out the word. When the bubble nudges its like I don't wanna see that and it does it way too soon. I wanna find it for myself and I have to rush myself to avoid it. Kinda defeats the purpose.

Good for learning the foundation of Japanese. Things that confused me a little: the hiragana for Asagohan spells out "choushoku" and for food/words, the English combinations don't match how the characters are combined (instead of a-sa-go-ha-n, it's something like as-agoh-an), which makes difficulty in learning/knowing the characters. Edit: It's great! Learning the characters is easier. Hope that as the app continues, spelling out the words can use the characters along with romanji (and later Kanji, if possible).. I have yet to get that far. The animated word graphics are amazing!

Fun vocab-builder BUT this won't teach you the language, (for verbs they only teach one form, so only good if you learn to conjugate elsewhere). It's usecase is very narrow. Also, I find that it repeats words I have down-pat way more frequently than words I struggle with. This ends up feeling like a waste of time. Some audio files don't read the full word. The illustrations for some words aren't very indicative of the word or are too similar to others. Very expensive premium for what it is.

I've been using Drops for about a year or more now and just decided to go Premium. It's the most beautifully designed, easy to use/ understand app I've ever downloaded (that wasn't a video game). It's very well thought out and even if you can't read the written portions very well (in my case, Hiragana and Katakana) you can still figure out what the vocabulary word is through the (rather clever) pictures. I love this app and so glad I found it! It's really helped a lot - more than other apps.

Why is premium 10$ a month. Now I paid 20$ for something worth 5$. Edit: it's only really useful for memorizing hiragana/katakana/Kanji, the entire rest of the app is just filler. I can easily get always high accuracy, but when I close the app I can't remember anything. If there was a writing test that forced me to use a Japanese keyboard I would learn much quicker. But I'm just associated shapes with shapes it's not teaching me anything. Go ahead and use the app you'll see you can't remember
