If you are studying Japanese and use an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, I highly recommend checking the app out.

The “Contained in Clippings” feature on relevant dictionary entries so you can refer back to the source.

The “Clippings” feature which allows you to easily read and study authentic content.The cool Safari extension that adds furigana to kanji on web pages.The prominent display of Common, Uncommon, or Rare next to terms so you know the usage and relative utility of a new word.The ability to add photos to definitions/flashcards (an idea he says was inspired by my book Master Japanese).The auto-creation of flashcards based on words you’ve looked up.The focus on using the app to work through authentic Japanese content.( Listen to my interview with Chris here.) He has managed to overcome many of the problems with competing Japanese dictionary apps and continues to improve and adapt the app based on user feedback.
