May 27th, 2011· Bug fixes: Fixes a problem with the Readings Test freezing the application.
April 25th, 2011New features:
· Improved flash card interface with larger kanji
· All grade 1-6 kanji now have stroke animations
· There are now over 1450 animations in total
· New preference to hide multiple versions of the same reading for a kanji
Bug fixes:
· Fixed a bug which caused problems when editing kanji
· Fixed stroke counts on several kanji
· Corrects several stroke animations
November 24th, 2010· The first change you’ll see is the redesigned welcome screen and if you’ve not purchased yet you’ll be greeted with the new trial limitation and registration system. Rather than limit which kanji sets you can practice, iKanji now limits you to running the app for 10 minutes at a time. As with iKana 2 it’s now much easier to install your license after purchasing, just drag and drop into the licensing window.
· Most of the rest of changes are a bit less visible – the kanji database has undergone a big overhaul. It now includes all the new 2010 Jōyō kanji and has a new Jōyō kanji set to show them all off in. I’ve also stripped out all the WWWJDIC sourced example compounds as too many of them were obscure.
· There are now less compounds, just under 7,700, but the bonus is they’re now commonly used words. This is paving the way towards an iKana 2 style vocabulary trainer in a future version of iKanj
September 3rd, 2009· A quick fix for iKanji 1.3 that addresses a problem using the test modules under Snow Leopard (only a blank window would open when choosing a test).
July 31st, 2009· Contains some new features and a larger selection of stroke animations.
April 16th, 2009· iKanji now contains over 820 stroke animations.
· The selection of example compounds has been improved.
· Adds an import and export function for kanji notes to allow them to be shared more easily.
· Improves the way example compounds are picked for each kanji which usually results in there being more examples per kanji.
November 17th, 2008· More stroke animations in this release.
· The stroke recorder is also much improved now too, you can draw straight lines and then add points to them to make adjustments and to smooth stroke animations.
· In fact I went back and improved all the existing stroke animations too.
· I've migrated iKanji from XML storage to a SQLite database behind the scenes which means memory usage should be a bit lower and loading and saving a bit faster.
