Japanese reading, JLPT N5-N1 grammar, kanji dictionary and flashcards in one.
Read full description
Jareads turns real Japanese into something you can actually read — then makes sure you remember it.
Pick your level (N5–N1) and everything adapts: the articles you read, the grammar you learn, the cards that come back.
READ REAL JAPANESE
Articles on Japan, business, tech, culture and daily life. Words at your level light up — tap one for the reading and the meaning, hear it spoken, then save it as a flashcard in one tap. Furigana on when you need it, a full translation when you're stuck, AI grammar analysis when a sentence won't come apart.
GRAMMAR THAT UNLOCKS
A real path from N5 to N1: 625 lessons across 161 themed sections, 4,295 exercises. Read the pattern, fill the blank, build the sentence, listen and choose. Clear the section review and the next section opens.
CARDS THAT ARRIVE AT THE RIGHT MOMENT
Built on FSRS, the spaced-repetition engine behind modern Anki. Cards return just before you'd forget, and the gap stretches every time you get them right. Study ready-made decks by level and topic, or build your own from words you met while reading. Charts show what you've learned and what's coming; miss a day and a free streak freeze covers you.
A DICTIONARY THAT KNOWS YOU
Search by kanji, kana, romaji or meaning — or draw the character you can't type. Every entry: readings, part of speech, conjugation tables, example sentences with furigana, stroke-order animation, and every article where you've already met that word.
SPEED MATCH
Kanji ↔ reading, kanji ↔ meaning, or listen ↔ kanji. Race the clock on the daily board — the same board as everyone studying your level — then check the leaderboard. One run and today counts as studied.
JLPT PRACTICE
Reading passages with comprehension quizzes, and an explanation for every question: why that answer was wrong, not just which one was right.
