Latest reviews of Japanese Reader app for iPhone and iPad

Nice App
Nice being able to display Japanese furigana and have dictionary lookup, right within a browser app.
Pretty nifty
Basically, its a web browser that will add furigana to text and let you highlight Japanese words to define them. Its rough around the edges and could use some serious polishing, but its functional and useful and the only thing of its kind on the app store. All of its flaws are minor and can be easily overlooked by virtue of the price point: free.
Great! Very useful!
Simple tool, but incredibly useful for students of Japanese like myself. Itd be great if this app could be expanded to support emails too.
Great Idea
This app is a great idea. Its in the first stages, and can only( I hope) get better!
Great app!
Great app! The dictionary is really handy. My only criticism is that the furigana offsets the kanji so that it is not inline with the rest of the text, which makes it a bit difficult to read. If the author can fix this problem tho, I will seriously consider buying the pro version!
