1) the camera wants to read horizontally rather than vertically
2) it doesn’t actually recognize anything, even in clear black and white print, not hand written
3) the drawing feature even gets very simple kanji wrong, always assuming you mean something more complex than you do
Real shame. An important tool and there seems to be none which actually function.

KanjiLookup is terrible. Doesn’t recognize a single kanji character. Even with testing with 1 or 2 stroke characters it doesn’t detect it at all

At all

The first interaction I had with KanjiLookup asked for a review. So I gave it one star.
by Luckeylime
Doesn’t detect characters nor have word that I am looking for.

I understand that ads within free apps are a necessary evil if you want them to stay free, but there needs to be be a better balance. Why even offer a free version of your app if the constant ads make it practically unusable ?

I have drawn scores of kanji and have had one recognition - one! Do not waste your time on this whatsoever. They don’t even have support.

Maybe I’m just too much of a gaijin, but after many attempts at drawing many kanji, it just doesn’t seem to be able to suggest anything close. Tried on kanji showing up in both classic Godzilla movies and modern Miss Sherlock.

There seems to be a problem with the camera taking a picture of a kanji and then looking it up. Seems to take the photo just fine, then ....nothing.

Great to quickly check kanji
by TestingSubject
If possible, please implement a system where you can quiz yourself with the saved/favorite kanji words. It would definitely make KanjiLookup much better than it already is!!!

Even when my writing is bad it seems to pick out the kanji.

Very easy to use. Can’t believe that it’s free

This App is not a dictionary or an exhaustive Kanji reference - and nor does it strive to be! Instead, it focusses on - and attempts to excel at - one thing: Finding the meaning of an unknown Kanji character as quickly and easily as possible using the only way that really makes sense on a touch-enable device: by drawing it.
Stop wasting your time counting strokes, deciphering radicals, or learning the intricacies of 'well-designed' lookup schemes - simply start drawing the character and watch results appear instantaneously.
KanjiLookup does not clutter your results with obscure readings only found in the name of that one mountain village or cross-references to paper dictionaries you most likely don't own anyway.
KanjiLookup can even (optionally) search for all Kanji characters contained in text in the pasteboard.
In addition, a searchable list of the most relevant words containing the Kanji character is only a tap away.
KanjiLookup was designed from the ground up for minimal start-up time, nearly instantaneous handwriting recognition, and a clean interface that doesn't get in your way.
It currently contains information for over 3500 Kanji, including but not limited to all the Joyo and Jinmeiyo characters.
Instead, it simply shows you what you are looking for: The character's pronunciation and definition.
Of course you can also search using the keyboard.
