### 4/5 — Don’t get it on iOS 12

*2026-08-17, version 3.2*

I let my son to read the Quran on my IPad Mini 2 but it’s just too old that It can’t really open, I use this app on my phone, and that’s why I put 4 stars, so if you have a device which is iOS 12 or lower I don’t suppose you should get it or it will crash, but it’s still pretty good on iOS older than 12.
