| Japanese app icon |
On June 12, we launched the Skritter Chinese iOS app to a cheering world. But not everyone got to stop drooling and start Skrittering that day. The Japanese app wasn’t ready yet. Japanese learners surrounded Skritter HQ and waved their katanas–in encouragement, we supposed. Today the Skritter Japanese app is ready to spray kanji all over your brain. Here it is on the App Store!
Even if you’re not learning Japanese, check out the video on our app launch page. It’s funny.
After you grab the app, then if you like it, please write a review in the App Store, demonstrate your dark-themed sparkwriting prowess to your friends, mash those share buttons, blog it, and most importantly, Skritter everywhere so that the world can gaze in wonder.
Like the Skritter Chinese app, this is a free download with the same one-week trial as on the web version, and it uses your existing Skritter account, syncing magically so that you can study anywhere, on any number of devices, and even without internet access (except for adding new words). Web subscriptions work in the app and vice versa, but we can’t use conveniently auto-renewable subscriptions in the App Store, so we’re offering in-app launch sale prices on longer subscriptions up to two years. These are just in the app, not on the site, but if you want to grab the sale price outside the app, just email us. These sale prices won’t last forever.
Okay, so we’ve launched the Chinese app. We’ve launched the Japanese app. What’s next? We’ve got a cave full of overdue web version projects that we’ll be cleaning out, and design has started for the iPad layout that we’ll be adding to the existing apps this fall. Unfortunately, there’s no room in the development schedule for a native Android app. You’re going to love the new iOS experience, though!
