Hey, hope you all are doing well!

The last months have been rather silent around DaKanji but development did not stop! The last year has been very tough but from now on it will go uphill!

Today I want to announce that DaKanji 3.5 is not available on all platforms with a lot of new features.

Note: **This update resets the Anki integration, please run the setup again**

Added:

  – Add to anki / list from search results

  – Search result sorting priority setting

  – Show search separation headers setting

  – Limit search results setting

  – Handwriting input on Android

– Settings

Improvements:

  – Conjugations are now grouped together (食べ、たかっ、た -> 食べたかった)

  – Vastly improved selection handling

  – Only show furigana for kanjis

  – Space text instead of resizing furigana

  – Option to automatically read from clipboard #92

  – Automatically save popup window size and position

  – Back navigation clears search and resets current entry

  – Readability of kanji stroke order diagrams #104

– Word lists: significantly improved export speed

– Radical search: show kanjis separated by stroke order

– Kana table: playback on Android does not cut off

– Anki: Setting to decide how adding a duplicate should be handled

– Keep screen turned on while screensaver is running

– While downloading initial data, keep screen on

– Various small UI improvements

– Reduced install size

– Unpack assets in isolate #72

Fixed:

– Windows drawing recognition does not work

– Various fixes regarding deep links

– Quick add to word list selection is always empty

– DoJG: Zooming and scrolling using the mouse wheel conflict with each other

– Anki

  – The order of languages when sending to Anki has been ignored

– Some audio files cut off on Android devices

You can get it from the usual places

• PlayStore
• AppStore
• Snap Store
• Microsoft Store
• Github (Linux executable, flatpak, snap, windows, android, mac)

Development of the next major release, DaKanji 4 has already started some time ago, and I hope to be able to ship it at the end of this year, so stay tuned as this will include huge changes.

Cheers!

Hey guys!

After some months of constant development, many bugs, and much head-scratching, I am back with some updates to DaKanji! As you know, DaKanji is my little (or now not so little) pet project, whose goal is to make a fully offline, cross-platform (iOS, Android, MacOS, Windows, Linux), and fast & beautiful dictionary (or at least this is one of the goals). So I am super proud that I just released DaKanji 3.4, which contains a truckload of new features, improvements, and bug fixes that make DaKanji competitive with any other dictionary (at least I think so). Here is a short list of the most important changes (see the changelog for a full list):

After a lot of effort put into DaKanji, the development will be a bit slower over the next few months as a lot of things have changed in my life and I currently do not have so much spare time. But be assured that DaKanji is nowhere near dead or finished. Thank you for reading all of this and I hope DaKanji will help you on your Japanese journey.
