I listen to Easy Japanese Podcast on YouTube, who release short conversations about any topic each day. I've been able to understand them better to the point I can tell you what they're talking about and what they segway to.
I am not yet able to make conversation, but I'm aware that it's not a quick process. I began less than a year ago and I think learning the sentence structuring is harder than learning kanji, lol. But that is only my opinion.
For grammar, words, and lexicon, I would recommend Human Japanese, which is a phone/windows app that uses the Genki textbook as it's basis. They have a demo for the first 3 chapters
