Recommended Japanese iPhone Apps: Sankei News, Sora-Annai, TV Listings, Currency

For those living in Japan and can read Japanese, here are some apps I recommend. Please note links open up to the Japanese iTunes store.

I recommend the following:

  • Sankei News (Sankei Shinbun) - If you read Japanese, this is a very cool app to get. You basically can read the newspaper of the day for free, and the interface is well executed. You can pinch in and out smoothly. To see the app on iTunes, click here.

  • Sora-Annai – Weather info for Japan.  Link to iTunes here.

  • TV Listings – Know what’s on TV in Japan.  Link to iTunes here.

  • Currency – For me, this is how I can find out how bad the dollar is against the yen everyday. Link to iTunes here.
