  1. I just set this up in Safari and it works really well. Now I can conveniently decipher and read many more Japanese websites. I can now manage to try to read and understand a whole new world of Japanese online resources because of this function! Wakaru is becoming a very important tool in my Japanese Language Study Toolbox. Thank you for making this very useful function available to us users of your excellent app!
