Learn From The Pages You Already Read

Fading Furigana is a browser extension plus learning app system for Japanese learners who want vocabulary practice to stay close to real reading.

1

Annotate Japanese Text

The extension scans webpage text locally and adds furigana to words it recognizes, while skipping forms, code blocks, and editable areas.

2

Save Useful Words

Click an annotated word to check its reading and meaning, then save it for review or mark it as known, forgotten, ignored, or pinned.

Review Locally

The Mac learning app keeps your library, daily review, activity, privacy choices, and storage health on the same device.

Local-First By Default

Annotation and Basic local learning do not require an account. Cross-device sync and cloud backup are not part of the Basic MVP.

  • Webpage text is processed locally so the extension can add furigana.
  • Saved vocabulary, review history, settings, and entitlement state are stored on your device.
  • Page URL retention can be set to off, domain only, or full URL.
  • Learning data is not sold and is not used for advertising.
