I think I know some japanese (3 level of the noryoku shiken). And I decided to do the app from the start, and probably will updating about each lesson. 1. へ --> it's true that it's a particle too, and when has the particle job, has the /e/ sound (like nEtflix), but it's an absurd teach this sound. へ it's a letter and has the sound of /he/ sound (like HElp) when use at words like snake (へび). 2. About the "which is the letter is write right?", it's deciding which is prettiest calligraphy.

I love this app so much, I even have a lifetime membership. But, the quizzes for the hiragana and katakana are complete BS. Not the lessons for each character, the quizzes at the end. Because I will draw a character one way in the lessons and it's FINE, but if I draw it the same way in the quiz, it's wrong, so I feel like you miss out a lot there, especially having to pay for it. I really wanted to learn how to write Japanese too, so beware.

speaking and listening practice is really fun, and there's also writing practice with stroke order and everything, not just for hiragana and katakana, but for kanji as well! really sets this app apart from, for example, duolingo, which doesn't allow you to learn stroke order. constant pop-ups about needing to buy premium are a little annoying, but the app is very well made and worth the money, i think.
