Amazing! I just now noticed that there are quizzes for the Kanji Radicals in the Notes section. This is very helpful and much better than studying them from my notebook lol. My eyes hurt less.

配送、 how many kanji do you know?
Well, not that many really. Aside from what my data shows, learning them is one thing but memorizing them is not that easy. Unfortunately the radicals in the Notes section aren't all of them. It would have been awesome if there were lessons for all the 214 Kanji Radicals here.
Anyway, I am also using a program called Rosetta Stone to learn Japanese so now I have 2 sources.- I use anki, listen to anime so i can hear the tones and variety in voices, and write kanji out all the time .
- You mean the program that uses flash cards that I found on Google?
If you want a quiz that has all of the radicals, the best I've seen is "Kanji Study" Android app. It gives you the choice of three different quiz modes:
・"Drill": Anki flashcard style quiz.
・"Judge": JapaneseClass.jp like quiz but with 8 multiple choices rather than 4, and a countdown timer.
・"Practice": A fun challenge where you have to actually draw the characters, with the correct stroke order and positioning. It does this in a fun way.

There's an iOS version too, but I have no idea whether it has the same radicals feature:

Not all the levels are free. I can't remember if radicals was part of the free content, but hopefully it was... The small price I paid to have all the content was definitely worth it (on Android). ^^- Unfortunately, I do not possess a smartphone as I am still using an old-type cellphone (yes, its possible) so I can't use such apps.
- I only got my first smartphone about 9 months ago. I barely even had a phone before that. I used to hate phones a lot (and still do to some extent). :D
Well, my next suggestion: Download "BlueStacks" Android emulator for your computer, make a google account for it, and then search for "Kanji Study" in Google Play inside the emulator. It's completely free. Also, the radicals section of the app is definitely free—just checked it in the emulator. ^^

Great article! thank you so much for this sharing. download free game apps from this site http://latestupgame.blogspot.com- Hey Strawhat how are you learning Kanji readings?
- I use Anki like you suggested. I add a few dozen Kanji every week from this site in a deck I created and then I set the front side of the card to show the Hiragana/Katakana form of the Kanji & translation while on the back side the Kanji itself. The using my memory I write down the Kanji on a notebook. I found out that by writing it down I can memorize it better.
