imiwa?の評価・口コミ・レビュー [iPad]

I’ve been in Japan for 21 years. I encounter new words daily. This app is my go to tool for working things out. When people ask for advice for learning Japanese, I always point them to imiwa? It’s that good. Frankly, I’m shocked it’s free.

The ability to input text from browser clipboards is fantastic. I also love the ability to input kanji via handwriting once a Chinese keyboard is enabled in your browser of choice.

Simply fantastic. The developers have made living in Japan considerably easier and a lot more interesting.

Most 'free' language apps aren't even worth the download time but this one is the exception with full dictionary functions, kanji search, lists/bookmarks and multiple language support. Even paid dictionary apps can't touch this one. It's on my iPhone dock for easy access as I find myself using it several times a day, and my old denshi jisho rarely comes out of its case anymore.

Note that this is a good reference dictionary but doesn't contain other learning features like tests. Not that it matters.

Modification on below review... Seems to have been an issue with the limitations of having only 1GB of RAM available for applications on the Apple iPad platform. Changed to 5-star.

I feel that imiwa is an excellent Japanese dictionary. However there's one major fundamental flaw. When I launch the application on the latest iPad Air it fails to load. When launching the program, it repeatedly crashes and returns to the main interface. I do not experience this phenomena on the iPhone 5.

ローマ字で入力したら和英、英単語を入力したら英和になる優れ者です。頑張って みたいなフレーズも出ます。面白かったのは⇨阿呆ちゃう？ が和英で出た事ですね。風林火山まで出ました。興味が全く尽きないです。キーボード切り替えで独和や露和になります。他の方のおっしゃる通り無料とは思えない出来映えです。

Update: this is still THE best Japanese dictionary app on iOS. But last update was 2014 and we're going to lose the compatibility of using this app with future iOS version. Please update this app :(

I've been using this app since I first purchased an iPhone (and tried various apps) and I can say this is THE best Japanese dictionary app within AppStore.

I've used imiwa? since before iPhone 4 was on the market and the app has come a long way. It's really helped me make life in Japan just a little bit easier because I can easily and accurately translate difficult English/Japanese words. I deeply appreciate all the dedicated work the developers have put into the app. Please, keep up the outstanding work!

この内容で無料とは本当に驚きです。
英和・和英辞書としての機能はもちろんのこと、例文も豊富で、見やすく使いやすい最高のアプリです。
アップデートされてアイコンも少しスマートになり、新しい漢字検索の機能にも脱帽しました。
This is my best dictionary!!

Please update this app so it works with the latest iOS (Even if it's no longer free!)
I live in Japan so I use this app all the time, every day. It's a lifesaver!
But I just got a warning that it needs updating or it will not work with future iOS versions... really hope the developers update this app.
(It's free but I'd certainly pay for this one)

The only review for an app that I’ve ever written. This app has many amazing features outside of simple word look up such as: example sentences, kanji stroke order, slang, writing in romaji to find a word, and that’s just to name a few.
This could easily be $10+ but it is FREE! I use this app daily and can’t thank the developers enough

The analysis function is amazing, much better than Google translation. You copy a sentence from a conversation, for example, then open this app, it will automatically analyze the sentence for you (what words included, their meanings, and you can further click to each word to learn more). No ads, great! Thank you, Costanzo-the developer!

Across eight years of studying Japanese and four years of living in Japan, I've looked up 3000+ words (I know because I logged the on the list functions), and I would guess that there have been less than 100 times I've looked up a word and it wasn't in this dictionary. Worth the cost of buying a smartphone to use this app.

In my opinion this is one of THE best apps on the App Store. Seriously. So much well made goodness that I can’t believe you can get this for free. The author could easily make it one of the more expensive apps and it would still be worth it. So the only thing to say is Thank you for making it available for free.

This is the best Japanese dictionary app I have tried. You can not only look up single words and see translations in multiple languages, but also search by strokes, paste an entire text and see furigana on top of the words, see how kanji are written, make your own vocabulary lists etc. Highly recommended!

It was highly recommended to download this apps by my Japanese teachers. The dictionary itself is the best one that I've seen so far as I can actually learning Kanji from the roots, which would help me to remember the kanji as well as how to write it. Thank you very much for creating this!!!

Hi, I’ve used this app since I started learning German about 5 years ago. It helps me a lot. Thank you for your service.
Now I’d like to ask why we can’t see grammatical genders anymore at all. It was very very useful and I hope that we might be able to use the function again :D

This is the best Japanese/English/Kanji dictionary I have used. But now with the newest IOS 9 update the kanji section does not display very well when looking up characters by multiple radical. I am looking forward to the update. I also realize that this is a free one so I will wait.

The single best language app I have ever downloaded. I use this daily in Japan for translation, kanji learning and generally getting by. I would happily pay for this app given how useful it is and the sheer amount of work that went into it's creation. Cannot recommend it enough!

I have been living in Japan since 2011(months after the Great Earthquake Disaster) and THIS APP HAS SAVED ME EVER SINCE!!! When I can’t say what i want in Japanese, i always use this app. Thank you so much to the people that made this app possible. And THEY MADE IT FREE!

This is the best Dictionary for learning Japanese. I am here in Japan for the past 3 years, I have tried various apps by spending lot of money. But at the end I found this App. I promise you guys to give it a try and you will enjoy learning Japanese. Thanks to imiwa...

Si vous ne devez télécharger qu’une appli pour le japonais, c’est celle-ci! Elle m’a accompagnée à l’école de japonais et après 10 ans de vie au Japon, elle m’est toujours utile! Elle apprend même des choses à mes collègues japonais! LA référence.
