Hi! I love the update but have noticed a few things:
Whenever I try to hit wrap up or end review session the app crashes for me.
Pressing enter from my iPad’s keyboard no longer makes takes me to the next item after I’ve reviewed my mistake, I have to touch the screen for that. I have the reveal answer automatically option on.
(Will be back if I notice anything else)
Now, it crashed for the kanji 真.
Tried doing reviews from my iPhone and it crashed after 13 items. Tried two more times and found it crashes at 定.
I noticed one other bug: When the reviews show a Radical, and I’ve selected the option to show random fonts, I get nothing but a blank area where the radical should be (I’m guessing because most radicals aren’t real kanji, but are non-standard pictograms). I can workaround it by tapping on the screen to swap back to the default font to see it. Maybe you can change the code to force radicals to only show in the default font?
GREAT new update by the way. I really like that you’re continuing to add thoughtful new features. Do you take donations through Paypal? This app is worth more than free.
I’m the exact opposite I really would like to do some vocab for the kanji I’ve unlocked before doing more kanji to reeinforce the older kanji, instead of jumping in to new ones. I always do all my vocab for the previous level if I level up before starting the new level, though. For me it just helps a ton for remembering the readings if I’ve learned some words that use it.
I haven’t run into the crashing problem, possibly because I’m low level and just haven’t run into the missing radicals yet.
But I just hit level 6, and I’ve been using the new version for a few days now, and I haven’t any syncing issues since then. The app and the site seem to agree nicely on how slow the progress is that I am making
This problem showed up for me. It can be fixed in iOS. Go to Settings → General → Language & Region and check the preferred language order. If Japanese isn’t there, add it. If Chinese is also there, put Japanese before Chinese. That should fix it for you.
The problem is not “minor differences”… it’s literally “not Japanese” kanji showing up. But not a problem with the app.
There’s a nifty android app for WK that I forget what’s called. I especially liked the feature of being able to look at kanji and vocabulary per level. The iOS apps available don’t have that. There’s no offline feature, though.
Has anyone else had the problem of getting repeat reviews with Tsurukame? It happened to me twice today. Also, it showed 4 less reviews than I was supposed to have for this hour.
@davidsansome just to let you know that there’s still some oddities relating to the number of reviews and lessons reported to be available in the app as opposed to actually being available on the site.
For example, I always see 久 again this way, along with the vocab 久しい and 久しぶり, and even when I burn them they still reappear. In a similar vein, the likes of 待たせる and 待ちぼうけ can be completed repeatedly and still reappear when the app is reloaded, and 知り合い reappears even though it’s now supposedly one level above what I’m at, even though it was originally in a lower level when I learned it.
And I’m not sure why the app reports I have 14 lessons when the site reports 13.
It’s always the same reviews that appear when I log out of and back into the app (in an attempt to fix the problems), which seem to coincide with the changes to WK that happened just recently. Is there a definitive way to fix these issues? I have exported my local-cache.db if you need it to help figure out how to solve the problem.
Hey, sorry it took so long to reply, I’m not that active in the community.
I was also using Java and Jsoup. What I can tell you is that the developers tools from your browser are your new best friends. I’m using Firefox, and you have this Network tab that watches for every request made by the page you are at the moment, and also the Storage tab that keeps track of the cookies and stuff.
To do any kind of web navigation programmatically, first try doing it manually and keep track of the request/response and cookies using these tools, and then replicate that navigation with code. That’s basically it, but it’s very general. DM me if you have any problems, I could help you out!
As I stated above, I’m not continuing this project, but I really liked the way it handled the reviews and lessons, and used that as a motivation to start my own project.
I’m a beginner, haven’t done absolutely nothing in Android before. I’m making some progress but it will take a loooong time, since I’ve to learn how to do every single thing (mostly UI and code-conventions, since this is the first time I’m working in a project this big), and I’d like to have an experience as close as possible to wanikani.
I’m hosting the work on github but it isn’t public yet. I’d like to have something I could call a beta (hell, even an alpha) version, but I didn’t get that far yet.
