  • Auto dictation (Jin audibly speaks to you when replying)
  • Built-in Dictionary and phrase lookup if you need some help (click on the word in Jin’s reply)

Coming soon:

  • Intelligent vocabulary lists (based on the words/phrases you look up most often)
  • WaniKani integration
  • And much more
