Rikai Browser

Reading Japanese on your iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch just got easier!

Rikai Browser for is a web browser app with an automatic Japanese-to-English dictionary. You can browse a website, select a word or Japanese kanji character, and then instantly look up its meaning!

It’s incredibly simple to use; you can look up any word in seconds with your fingers.

Tap and hold your finger over any Japanese word or character to select it. Then, tap the “Rikai” button (a Japanese word meaning ‘understand’) to see the word’s meaning and reading in hiragana (Japanese alphabet). That’s it!

You can also use our new AutoRikai feature – as you slide your finger around the screen, Rikai will automatically look up the selected word. Great for those complicated pages with lots of unknown Kanji.

This app is a must-have for anyone who browses websites with Japanese on their iPhone, iPad or, iPod Touch.

Rikai Browser also remembers your search history, and what pages you saw them on – so, if you want to study the words, you can always go back later.
