I can't remember why I chose 見解 (見解 - opinion, point of view) to use as an example.  Thinking now, it seems to be a strange choice for a demo word. But that is just my opinion.

A friend told me this morning that there are a lot of reviews on Amazon.co.jp saying the kanji recognition wasn't very good.  That certainly hasn't been my experience especially considering how bad my kanji writing is

Here's the beef of the matter.  Native Japanese speakers would most likely look up very difficult or rare kanji, but those learning Japanese would be more likely to look up everyday joyo kanji which would be found in the J-J dictionary. Since the software doesn't actually have a kanji dictionary (just E-J, J-E and J-J) it naturally wouldn't have really difficult or rare kanji.  

So I still stand by my statement that it recognizes very well (for those learning Japanese)
