Questions learners ask before they start.
What is Perapera?
Perapera is a mobile app for Japanese speaking practice. You speak answers out loud, shadow native Japanese, train vocabulary, and get instant AI feedback on grammar, naturalness, clarity, and politeness.
Do I need to know Japanese before starting?
No. Beginner prompts start with practical expressions, and display modes let you practice with kanji plus furigana, hiragana, or romaji.
How is this different from normal language apps?
Perapera is built around production. Instead of mostly recognizing answers, you say Japanese aloud and receive specific corrections that help you sound more natural.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Standard and Advanced plans include a 3-day free trial, and you can cancel anytime in your device subscription settings.
Is my voice data stored?
No. Speech recognition runs on your device. Perapera sends transcribed text for grading and does not store raw audio recordings.
