What's New in Lafz

1.5

November 2, 2026

• Every word in Lafz now opens a full page: its meaning, how it's used and, where it's known, where it came from. • Hear it said. Tap Listen on a word or a couplet to hear it spoken, and choose the voice in Settings › Pronunciation. • Paheli is easier to get into. Words that still fit the board are offered under it on every try, so you never have to hunt for a five-letter word, with a hint for each try beneath them. • When Paheli turns a guess away, it now says why, and offers the spelling it knows. • Small fixes and polish throughout.

What an amazing app

Beautifully designed app. They are also very good at following up on feedback

Good ritual

One of the few good daily rituals I have!

Great App

I have been looking for a good Urdu app for a while and I am so glad I stumbled on Lafz. It’s a refreshing change to the typical underbaked Urdu apps. Absolutely beautiful design and typography! Hope the developers continue to add more content.

This app is a must NEED

This app has genuinely been life-changing for me. Growing up in the US, I always felt a certain distance from Urdu. It was a language I grew up hearing and speaking, but never felt I had fully connected with.

Lafz has helped me rediscover that connection in a way I never expected. What I love most is how effortlessly it makes learning part of my daily routine. The daily reminders, thoughtfully chosen words, and clear pronunciations have helped me expand my vocabulary and improve my Urdu by leaps and bounds.

I’m genuinely grateful to the people who built this app. It’s so much more than a vocabulary tool. It’s a bridge back to a language and culture I’ve always wanted to feel closer to.
