JP Notify

JP Notify is an Android app that helps you memorize JLPT kanji passively. Every time you turn off your phone screen, the app shows a flashcard-style notification with a random kanji and its meaning.

Features

  • Flashcard-style kanji notifications shown when you turn off the screen
  • JLPT levels N1–N5 selectable from the app's interface
  • Works entirely offline using a bundled SQLite database
  • Lightweight and minimal UI
  • Fully customizable notification layout

Installation

  1. Clone this repository:

    git clone https://github.com/yourusername/jp-notify.git
  2. Open the project in Android Studio.

  3. Build and run the app on your device (Android 6.0 or newer).


How It Works

  • The app uses a BroadcastReceiver that listens for the SCREEN_OFF event.
  • When the screen is turned off, it randomly selects a kanji from a local SQLite database.
  • A notification is shown with the kanji (and reading) as well as the meaning.
  • The user can configure which JLPT levels (N1 to N5) are included.

Permissions

Android 13 and above require runtime permission for notifications:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS" />
