I made a free app to help master visually similar kanji

WaniKani API And Third-Party Apps

One minor frustration though is the inability to deselect an option once clicked, several times I’m clicking on two kanjis or two meanings successively because i found the match for the second option and losing my streak… ;_;

Good question. I guess prefer the reading, but in cases like this an option or both would be sweet.

I realize I’m asking a lot here, so I’ll gladly take whatever is manageable :slight_smile:

I believe this should work. You simply need to click the same card again to deselect it. However, I guess it’s visually not clear if your cursor remains on the card after deselecting it. Additionally, there’s a slight difference in the audio when you deselect a card. Can you confirm this on your end? Otherwise, there is a bug :laughing:

For what it’s worth: For me this works, and found that it works as expected.

True both options would be probably the best approach even if it’s technically a bit more difficult then :smiley:

All good, I mean I asked for feedback so that’s just fair enough :laughing:. I’ll probably end up starting with the quick wins / simpler tasks first and then see how I can tackle the larger tasks :smiley:

Just tried the 1.3 version. Works great! I’ll definitely put it in my routine and probably do all the reviews 1-2x per week. I regularly find that I confuse lower level kanji when they come back to me in the Guru II / Master stages and I’ve learned a new similar looking kanji. This will at the very least help with detecting those pitfalls early, if not eliminate them. And I love how it’s so lightweight it takes no time at all to go through the review pile.

Thanks again for making this app!
