The app

KotoBloom is an educational app for learning Japanese vocabulary. It is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to any textbook publisher, school or the organizers of the JLPT. Unit order and JLPT level labels are our own study guidance.

Free and paid content

Units 1–3 are free. KotoBloom Full is a one-time, non-consumable purchase that unlocks every unit on devices signed in to the same store account. There is no subscription. The price is shown in the store before you buy. Reviews of words you have already learned stay free.

If we add new JLPT levels (such as N3, N2 or N1) to KotoBloom, everyone who owns KotoBloom Full gets them at no extra cost. The price for new buyers may go up as levels are added; it never changes what you already own.

Purchases, refunds and restores

Payments are handled by Apple or Google under their terms. Refund requests go to the store where you bought the app, following its refund policy. You can restore a previous purchase at any time from the app’s Settings.

Course content

Words, meanings, notes, example sentences and audio in KotoBloom are original works owned by Examzio. You may use them for your own study. Do not copy, extract or redistribute the course content, or reverse-engineer the app to do so. We review the content carefully, but mistakes can happen; please report anything that looks wrong.

Liability

KotoBloom is provided as is, without a promise that it will be error-free or always available. It does not guarantee an exam result. To the extent the law allows, Examzio is not liable for indirect losses from using the app. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that cannot be excluded.

Changes

We may update the app and these terms. Material changes will be shown on this page with a new date.
