Best Japanese Dictionary App for Android

One app we tend to install before any other when learning a new langauge will be

Dictionary

Dictionary, in physical form or app , is very essential for someone who wants to improve their linguistic ability. The dictionary app I have used and loved is Imiwa?, unfortuately it is only available for iOS.

After a bit of searching and asking around (mostly students from my language coaching), I came across

Japanese dictionary Takoboto.

It is very similar to Imiwa? but better. There are quite a lot of features I expect for a dictionary to be good and more.

Before diving into the aforementioned features, let’s what to look for in a dictionary

What makes a Dictionary good:

1. Should accept all these input methods

2. Should have detailed explanation on the Kanji searched: かきかた、よみかた

3. Should have example sentences/phrases

4. Should have the ability to save searched words for future reference

5. Should have the option for Flash cards

That being said , the User interface should be simple and it is a bonus to have a windows app.

Takaboto checks all the points.
