Just made my last iPad a Japanese only device instead of selling it. I’ve only been learning Japanese for a few weeks now but think its so cool to be able to use the iPad without feeling 100% lost.
I downloaded a One Piece rpg game (I know nothing about the story) that was high up on the Japanese app store along with some free books from the Apple books app.
I am far from being good enough to understand all of it but really enjoy recognizing a few words here and there and trying to put things together without looking anything up.
I tried to get my amazon account to work for kindle books but couldn’t figure it out yet, or if it’s possible.
Does anyone have any apps they love from the Japanese app store? Was able to put my credit card in Apple Pay, so they don’t have to be free either if they are recommended highly enough

update me too if anyone responds
iirc for kindle, you have to make a completely separate amazon jp account and set your shipping address to a japanese address. you can’t share your non japanese amazon account for it.
Dragon Quest Walk is a fun game like Pokémon Go only in Japanese. Sadly most of the events are only playable in Japan but you can still encounter monsters and level up by going for a walk.
You can also get the old Dragon Quest games on the App Store and the mobile versions are good, I’m playing Dragon Quest V for the first time and enjoying it so far.
