Button for English descriptions not working

This app is very useful for practicing stroke order and testing yourself on writing the characters (you can choose whether or not you see stroke animation) but the button to change the description of the characters to English is not working. Changing the descriptions to Chinese or Korean does not work either. Im trying to learn Japanese for the first time, so seeing the descriptions in English is VERY important to me as thats the only way I know what Im writing. I will keep the app and hope the English descriptions are fixed in a future update, it would be a great app if the English descriptions worked.

Ok but.. Not really.

Could be better. There is almost no explanation and the option to move forward to practice the next character is always open. ie: theres no requirement to "master" (even slightly) the correct form and no acknowledgment that you used incorrect form-which is necessary to the person looking to learn the correct form. If kana is generally meant to be written left to right, top to bottom, then there should be some guidelines or reprimand when/if you dont-Literally, you can just scribble across the page. I could do that in my Notes app. Not helpful.

could be so much better

being a beginner in kanji, I love how many it looks like I can learn. the only thing is, the "pronunciation" in the information side of the kanji is really confusing, so it kinda defeats the purpose of learning the kanji if you only know the English meaning and not how to pronounce it. If this app had an audio option where I could HEAR how the kanji is pronounced, it would help so much, and then I would have a reason to use this app.

Very handy!

Nice tool for learning kanji. Would love Apple Pencil support please!!!
