Japanese IO Extension

This Chrome extension works in concert with Japanese IO (https://www.japanese.io) and brings easy access to dictionary lookups, readings, kanji and example sentences to help you read Japanese web pages.

Notice that this extension requires a free Japanese IO account, which can be created from the extension after it has been installed. Paid feature upgrades are available.

Word lookups are stored in your profile and you can review and study this vocabulary on the Japanese IO website.

Luke Gazala (ID: 000000012c0ad222) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/08/2023 u have to make an account

Sweetie Peetie (ID: 0000001e76a9e4ca) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/14/2023 This is the best app in town that I have found, quicker simple highlighting words for furigana on websites, click and show the actual JLPT level of the word and frequency (not available on Yomichan that I can see), and word-tracking storage across extension to main IO website, analyzer, etc. In this way I believe it is better and simpler than Lingq as well, and pretty much everything else that I have seen to date.

saika (ID: 0000003d24d4f795) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/26/2023 超級完美的功能,作為中文使用者。有多時候閱讀都是能理解文意,但不曉得日文發音。 有了這個之後變得很好學習。 如果之後詞語解釋多了其他語言就更棒了
