### 3/5 — Paywalls

*2026-07-27, version 2.29.7*

Why? This is a good app. You really have to pay wall it for necessities. Making me wait 12 hours for a lesson. I understand giving a payment option to remove ads. But the entire app is just locked behind a paywall

### 3/5 — Not the best for long term learning

*2026-07-18, version 2.29.7*

The app makes you feel like you are making a lot of progress in the beginning as you learn the most common words and go through the lessons. However I quickly finished all the lessons and after around 50% the progress slows down massively. 

You no longer learn the most common words: I continue to learn new words with the translation feature but the percentage is not going up and there are still many words remaining in the 100+, 50-100 times, 25-50 times etc categories that I am just not being taught. 

This is in both the paid and unpaid version. So despite continuing to use the app it no longer feels like I’m learning as there’s no sense of progress and without the lessons it’s also not really worth paying for the subscription.

It would also be great to have an audio for all the words in the translation function so that you learn how to pronounce as opposed to just reading.

### 3/5 — Family plan is not working

*2026-07-06, version 2.29.6*

Last week I was using my daughters family plan, but this week it says upgrade. She sent a new link. With that link, it says I am already in family but UI shows I am on free plan

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2026-05-15, version 2.29.4*

Pretty good but doesn’t teach the story but rather the words and meaning

### 3/5 — Alhamdullilah

*2026-05-15, version 2.29.4*

Assalamu aleykum, Alhamdullilah I love the app, it does exactly what it sets out to do, and i love trying to memorize the new words, and how it breaks down the surahs. The mini lessons are free one for each day and are very insightful. I only have one thing I would like to mention to the designers of this, I think it might be just my device but the view of the words get cut off in Surahs, it wasn't always like this, but now it made it really hard to do anything inside the app, I hope we can find a way to fix this issues, other wise I do really enjoy the app.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-05-14, version 2.29.4*

I already kept this app for 2 years and it’s always amazing the way it breaks down the words in the Quran 

Barakallahu Feekum

### 4/5 — Really like but 1 thing missing

*2026-05-09*

This app is great, I’ve been using it daily and really have improved in being able to read the Quran. It’s fun and addicting too, highly recommend, especially the premium. Instead of doomscrolling or doing something like watching a show, imagine being able to understand half the Quran in a matter of months, SubhanAllah. I love this app. But there is one issue. 

When you enter a live room to read Quran, there is men and women. Today, I entered a room and they were talking about jobs and joking with men, when I asked them could we read Quran, I got banned from the room! How are you going to ban me from stopping free-mixing and redirecting to the WORDS OF ALLAH. That was weird. The shaytan is everywhere, SubhanAllah. But that could have been avoided if there are female only rooms where men can’t enter and vice versa, so they won’t get distracted by men offering to “tutor them” smh, so uncomfy. Maybe room rules could also be helpful, this room is to read Quran only if you’re looking for a job or a man or something else this ain’t the place, my goodness.

### 3/5 — Pls fix this issue

*2026-05-07, version 2.29.3*

When trying to open a Surah the app crashes fix this pls and I’ll give 5 stars JazakAllahu khairan

### 4/5 — Voix féminine

*2026-05-03*

L’application est parfaite et la version gratuite permet parfaitement de comprendre ce que contient la version payante et donne envie de souscrire à l’abonnement. En revanche il est totalement inapproprié de dispenser les cours de grammaire par une femme alors que, de toute évidence, des hommes vont suivre ces cours. C’est l’une des seules choses qui me font hésiter à suivre vos cours payants. Jazâka-llāhou khayran

### 5/5 — Perfect to learn

*2026-04-05, version 2.29.1*

I have been using this for a bit and have found it very easy to use and you don’t have to pay to use the app.
However I would like it so that there was a feature to learn about the story’s in YHE quarn without having to do the quiz.

### 5/5 — Good

### 1/5 — Major Glitch - Can’t Progress

*2025-11-23, version 2.28.2*

Every time I finish a quiz, my progress resets and the same words keep repeating. I’ve deleted, updated, and emailed support—no response! Extremely frustrating since I can’t actually move forward in my learning. PLEASE fix this!!!!!

### 1/5 — I hate it

*2025-09-03, version 2.27.1*

Half a star

### 1/5 — Mixing the True with Falsehoods is not good

*2025-07-18, version 2.27.0*

Trying to learn the Quran with Hadiths is the dumbest thing that you could ever do…

### 1/5 — Are you honestly intentionally making the app worse?

*2025-07-10*

This was a wonderful app based on the addictive learning strategies of Duolingo applied to the words in the Quran. I’ve had this app for over 7 years and come back to it to learn. I just updated and noticed that they added a timer to the free version that makes you wait before you can keep doing self quizzes. Additionally once you get through all the lessons, there’s no way you can keep practicing translating the remainder of the Quran which I brought up to the developers but they blamed my phone (I have updated my phone twice since). One star because I am noticing they are intentionally putting more features behind a pay wall each year to gradually make the free version worse. I was planning to buy the text books this year and formally take the class, but the app developers have lost my trust by removing features. I will just download the words on the Anki app and use that for free. Subscription currently is $5/ month for this app, will see if they increase that as well. Shame, I used to recommend this to all my friends and family and got over 20 friends to download it. Now I don’t know what further limits updates will bring to limit.

Update based on developer response:

I was told pricing policy hasn’t changed. The addition of a timer delaying a user’s ability to take quizzes within an interval unless they pay is effectively decreasing functionality for the free tier users in this App. I respect the mission of making Quranic Arabic learning easy, and realize that it is hard to monetize, but I fear that the mission may get lost in efforts to increase monetization on the onset and will funnel people away from from the amazing methodology within this App.  I can confidently say that when I listen to and read the Quran, I can now understand much more. Perhaps more thought can be made on how to funnel users into the paid tier without gimmicks and ruining the experience that attracted us and made this app shareable in the first place.

**Developer response:** Assalaamu'alaykum 

Thanks for your longtime support! Just to clarify — our pricing and paywall haven’t changed since launch. If something isn’t working, it may be a bug — please report it so we can fix it. We’re a small team working hard to make Quranic learning meaningful and sustainable. We truly value your feedback.

### 5/5 — Bug I found

*2026-06-02*

Hello developers, I hope peace and blessings of Allah is with you! This app is amazing for learning Arabic for the Quran, even the free edition is good! But I just want to report on an issue I found using the app. The bug is the app not showing now many words you’ve actually learned. For me, the app claims I’ve learned 145 words and have 34 new ones yet to be quizzed. Why do many YTBQ you ask? Because the app froze with the amount I learned a long time ago and still thinks that’s the amount I learned, but that’s simply not true! Just reporting on a bug I found. Thank you!

### 5/5 — This app is truly changing my Islamic life

*2026-05-24, version 2.29.4*

I LOVE THIS APP!!!!
