I dont know if any of this has been suggested yet, but since my switch from anki to bunpro there have been some things that I keep on missing a little and I just thought Iâd put them out there. ^^
Iâd love to see an option to review vocabulary from English â Japanese instead of Japanese â English.
What I have in mind is something like:
- the English meaning/definition
- hints for the word class (noun, ăȘ-adjective, etc.) and register (formal, casual, etc.)
- an example sentence for context
Then youâd have to recall and type the Japanese word.
Personally, I donât get much out of the current English-side writing prompts. Typing the English meaning just feels like extra time without really helping me remember the Japanese word. Generally to me, Japanese â English doesnât seem as helpful for active recall, as would English to Japanese be.
One of the main issue is also with vocabulary that doesnât have fill-in-the-blank example sentences. Those switch to the translate-to-english mode by default, and I canât switch them to flashcard mode because that setting also changes my fill-in reviews to flashcards, which I donât want.
It would be great if there were either:
- an english â japanese review mode for these cards
or - separate settings for standalone vocabulary cards and fill-in-the-blank sentence reviews.
I also have a bit of a smaller issue with the fill-in sentences, since I am more auf an audio-visual learner, it would help a lot if there was an option to play the vocab audio before/separately from the sentence audio in fill-in sentence type reviews.
This would help a lot. (Please also let me know if there are features like this and I just didnât find any of them)
If I may be so cheeky Iâd like to offer two suggestions here:
- some way of quickly cramming the daily goal (including no. of times an item appears in the cram).
Iâm finding this to be the best way to solidify newly learned points; a quick cram with a repeat of 2 or more after completing the daily goal
- Auto-download offline data
An small QOL admittedly. Just a toggle to keep reviews ready for offline use. Bunpro comes with me camping/outdoors 
so its the perfect "oh, no signal for doomscrolling? Bunpro time 
" sorta detox

Iâd love to use the cram feature more, but currently, I feel like the filter methods are lacking.
What would be really helpful, is a way to cram the items from your last review, i.e.: âCram all missed items from last reviewâ and âCram all items from last reviewâ.
Also, another filter where you can just select all items from a specific progress-category would be nice, e.g.: âCram all âBeginnerâ itemsâ.

The date that shows when I completed a mock exam shows the month first. Is there a way I can change this to day first instead?
Going to offer my support to this idea here. On the âLearnâ option it should test 3+ sentences to solidify understanding for each grammar point. Then have all the learned grammar points mixed together in a test. This would feel like a textbooks structure where youâll learn the conjugation, then develop from there.
Bunpro becoming a really good textbook with SRS would be good in my opinion.
Not sure if has been suggested by the ability to âbalanceâ long-term reviews. Say you have 150 reviews one day, and 50 the following, an option to balance this out so that instead you have 100 for two those days instead.
For long term reviews, seeing a review 29 days from now vs 28 probably does not matter and it might help with feeling overwhelmed by having too many reviews in one day.
It would be nice to have diagrams/tables of how similar grammar points link and their differences, especially in the context of hints. It would be helpful to understand the relationships directly in one place.
Hi Bunpro community and Bunpro team,
Thanks for the amazing work on this fantastic tool 
.
To reiterate an early suggestion from @ddavo, it would be nice to have a MCP, or otherwise APIs, to expose data, such as recently failed items, lessons and decks covered so far, and stats. I was trying to create a Claude skill to improve my Jp practice, but Iâm clutching at straws for a way to automate my Bunpro data inflow in real time.
If there already is something along these lines, or otherwise a workaround, please do share!

Same hah. Itâs a bit of a pain feeding it updates manually. Best Iâve come up with is making a script to add an export grammar button, then uploading that for it to decipher and update my repo.
