Does finishing this course guarantee passing the JLPT N5?
No. JapaneseDaily is a self-paced practice app. Its phrases are built to sit inside the JLPT N5 level, but passing the actual exam depends on JLPT's own testing standards. We are not the testing body, so please confirm exam dates, requirements and results directly with JLPT.
What the JLPT N5 covers
JLPT N5 is the first official level of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test. According to JLPT, it covers about 100 kanji and 800 words. JapaneseDaily's phrases are designed to sit inside this level, but that does not replace checking the official requirements yourself.
How JapaneseDaily fits inside N5
The course is built around real situations — greetings, work, the doctor, the apartment, the bank — with listen and speak drills and spaced repetition. Unit 1 teaches hiragana, and romaji appears in every note.
- There are 46 hiragana characters. According to the Japan Foundation, after unit 1 and about a week of practice you should be able to read every basic Japanese sound.
- The course has no account, no ads, and no hearts.
Is Japanese worth studying right now?
Interest is rising: Japanese became the 4th most-studied language in the world in 2025, passing German, according to the Duolingo Language Report 2025. That is a sign of general popularity, not a promise about your own results.
Cost and privacy: what we know and don't know
JapaneseDaily is described as a free course, but two paid plans also appear in its materials — $4.99 and $29. There isn't enough information here to explain that difference, so please check the app directly for current pricing.
We also don't know whether text you type or paste is stored. Please check the app's own privacy policy or contact support before assuming anything about your data.

What to do next
Open JapaneseDaily and start Unit 1, where you learn all 46 hiragana characters with romaji in every note. The course's listen and speak drills and spaced repetition work with your own pronunciation and answers, not a fixed script. For games and streak battles, the material points to Kaira (kaira-zeta-three.vercel.app). For anything about the JLPT exam itself, confirm directly with JLPT.
