I am looking for an app or a website that functions similarly to WK and will allow me to add my own vocab to the list. I am not very good with computers, so I need something that is easy to use. I have tried Houhou, and it was great for a while but suddenly it doesn’t let me add any item to the SR…

+1 for Kitsun :slight_smile: I spent 1 year struggling with Anki. Then I started Kitsun and since then I’ve learned more than 20000 cards. Feel free to post on Kitsun’s thread (or in here) in case you have any question :v:

Another +1 for Kitsun. If ease of use is your primary concern, it’s definitely the way to go. It’s got a built in dictionary for adding cards, and the default layout (which the dictionary uses) is clean and easy to understand.

Thank you. I have found my way to kitsun on my own, I am just not sure I can afford the price at the moment since I haven’t been working for a while due to the pandemic. I will try its free trial and see if it’s good enough to pay for, but I’d still rather find something that’s free/cheaper

Anki definitely has a learning curve, but is a standard for a reason. Once you tweak the interval settings, you have a lot of control to fine tune your retention. Making the cards pretty is a matter of basic CSS styling. If you’ve never done any web design, that could be a problem. If you want to m…

Kamesame is very good, and is currently free. I like it a lot. It can also add words with definitions straight from JMDict.

If you’ve never done any web design, that could be a problem I’ve never done any web design. I’ve been trying to customize Anki but all the tutorials out there are more confusing than helping, so I guess this is not my thing.

Yeah, I definitely understand not wanting to get into some technical exercise. If you use Anki as it is, it will be perfectly usable, just an uninspiring black on white (or vice versa in dark mode). All you would (optionally) need to do in install the Japanese plugin if you want to generate automa…

I did not match Wanikani as the intervals are supposedly too frequent, according to this video. My learning steps are 30 1440 8640. Then the grad interval is 15 days.

I’ll also recommend Kitsun. I just wish it had an app, otherwise I’d actually use more.
