# FEATURES
1. MONDO lets you create an individualised reading program based on your interests and reading level:
- Relevant articles: MONDO includes articles which are categorised based on area of interest, such as Japanese news, art, food, drink, subcultures, and much more.
- Difficulty: articles are sortable by difficulty level to help you target the right reading difficulty level, if desired.
- Expected time to read: articles display the expected reading time, so you can choose to read shorter or longer articles based on your available time.

2. MONDO lets you read Japanese smoothly:
- Simple Tap Dictionary: If you find an unknown word when you read an article, tap the word and it will be shown in Hiragana and English. This enables you to understand an article even if there are many kanji you cannot yet read, while helping you improve your kanji study at the same time.

No search function, can't sort by difficulty (at least couldn't find it) and word test "next" button wouldn't work, so testing my knowledge became a tedious back and forth to the main menu. Don't waste your time.
