About

Arabic Unlocked

Features
Read full description

Turn distracting app checks into opportunities to practise Arabic. Arabic Unlocked combines Arabic learning with Screen Time controls, helping you pause, complete a quiz and earn a limited window of access to selected apps. Arabic Unlocked is a subscription-based app. After a 3-day free trial, an active weekly, monthly, or yearly subscription or a one-time Lifetime purchase is required to unlock the full app experience, including all lessons, quizzes, and Screen Time app-locking features. Instead of opening a distracting app immediately, you first return to your learning. Complete the required quiz, unlock your selected apps for a set period and use that time intentionally. When the reward window ends, the apps are shielded again. LEARN WITH A PURPOSE Arabic practice becomes part of a routine you already have: reaching for your phone. The app provides topic-based learning and quizzes, giving each study session a clear and practical reward. • Browse the available Arabic learning topics • Choose a topic to continue your study • Complete quizzes as part of your unlock routine • Turn repeated distractions into additional practice moments CREATE YOUR SCREEN TIME ROUTINE Choose which apps you want to manage using Apple’s permission-based Screen Time controls. Arabic Unlocked can shield your selection until you complete the learning step needed to unlock it. The core routine is simple: 1. Authorize Screen Time access. 2. Select the apps you want to limit. 3. Keep those apps shielded while you focus. 4. Complete an Arabic quiz when you want access. 5. Receive a timed unlock window. 6. Let the shield return automatically when the window expires. The unlock deadline is retained, and the app checks it again when returning to the foreground. This helps the selected apps return to their shielded state after the earned time has elapsed. BUILT FOR YOUR PREFERENCES Choose a light or dark appearance and use the learning experience on iPhone or iPad. A dedicated topic browser makes it easy to explore available material, while account tools include password reset, subscription management and account deletion. DESIGNED FOR INTENTIONAL PRACTICE Arabic Unlocked is for learners who want a practical reason to study more often and a more deliberate relationship with distracting apps. Whether you are building an Arabic routine or trying to interrupt automatic screen habits, each unlock can begin with learning. Please note: • Screen Time authorization and an app selection are required for app shielding. • The main learning experience requires an account and an active access plan. • Available purchase options are displayed in the app. Make Arabic practice the key to your screen time. Download Arabic Unlocked and start turning distractions into learning moments. SUBSCRIPTION Arabic Unlocked offers auto-renewing Weekly, Monthly, and Yearly subscriptions, plus a one-time Lifetime purchase. Eligible new subscribers can start with a 3-day free trial. Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase, and you can manage or cancel anytime in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
