One sentence, five gestures

From the stuck word to the learnt card.

  1. 1

    You tap the word.

    Reading, meaning, dictionary form.

  2. 2

    You ask Jiyo.

    He explains your sentence, not a rule in general.

  3. 3

    “+ Deck”. The card is made.

    The sentence, the word, the explanation and the strip of page. Nothing to type. On PC, your captures illustrate a whole deck.

  4. 4

    You review.

    Anki’s buttons, or type and let Jiyomi grade.

  5. 5

    Jiyo learns what you know.

    Furigana drop off the words you know. Colour stays on what’s new.

Three questions

Is it really free?

Yes, and unlimited: the photo, the reticle, furigana, the dictionary, cards. Only AI help is paid.

Does it work offline?

Yes. The dictionary downloads once, then everything works offline, except AI help.

With my own books and games?

That’s the point. Nothing to import: you photograph the page, or aim at the screen.

Nothing to pay, nothing to create.

Install, photograph a page. You read right away.
