The Quran was not revealed in a single recitation. It was revealed in ten, each one transmitted with unbroken chains of authority stretching back to the Prophet (peace be upon him). For over a millennium, scholars have preserved these differences with extraordinary precision. Most people have never seen them. Aswaat changes that. Compare riwaayaat, directly on the mushaf. Hafs is always your base layer. Overlay Warsh, Qaaloon, or any other riwaayah, and every word that differs is highlighted in color, right on the page, in context, exactly where it appears. Select two riwaayaat at once, each with its own color, and see their differences side by side. No cross-referencing. No footnotes. Just the text, made visible. Read in the script that is yours. Aswaat supports both IndoPak script, the typeface printed in masaahif across South Asia, East Africa, and beyond, and the traditional Uthmani script. Whichever you learned with, Aswaat reads the way you do. Hear the tradition, not just the name. Our reciter library is organized by riwayaah, not by country or popularity. Find reciters of Warsh, Qaaloon, Ad-Duri, and more, and hear precisely how each riwayaah is recited by those who have mastered it. Learn the science properly. Aswaat includes a growing library of educational videos covering two of the most important foundations of Quranic study: Tajweed - the rules of correct recitation, explained clearly for students at every level, from the foundations of makhaarij to the subtleties of idghaam and mad. History of the Qiraat - who were the ten Imams? How were the riwaayaat transmitted? What is the difference between a qiraah, a riwayaah, and a tareeq? These questions matter, and Aswaat takes them seriously. For students, scholars, and everyone who loves the Quran and its sciences, Aswaat is for you.

Turn any spreadsheet into a flashcard deck, then study until every card sticks. DeckLearn imports a plain CSV file — a column of questions, a column of answers — and turns it into a deck you can quiz yourself on. No accounts, no subscription, no internet connection. Just your cards and your progress, on your phone. IMPORT IN SECONDS Pick a CSV and DeckLearn does the rest. It detects header rows automatically, handles quoted fields and commas inside answers, and shows you a live preview before anything is created. Files with extra columns work too — you choose which two become the front and back of each card. STUDY THE WAY THAT WORKS Three modes, switchable any time: • Shuffle — a fresh random order every pass • In Order — exactly the order from your file • Weakest First — the cards you keep missing come first New cards always come before ones you've seen, and the same card never appears twice in a row. MASTERY, NOT GUESSWORK Every card moves through New, Incorrect, Correct, Mastered. A card is mastered once you get it right several times in a row — three by default, adjustable per deck. Miss it, and the streak resets. Cards you've mastered leave the rotation so you spend your time on what you don't know yet. SPOT CHECKS KEEP IT HONEST Mastered cards get quietly mixed back in now and then to make sure they really stuck. Tune how often, or switch it off entirely. TWO-WAY CARDS Studying a language? Turn on reversible cards and DeckLearn will quiz you in both directions — term to definition and back again. Each direction tracks its own streak, and a card counts as mastered only when both are solid. Focus on one direction at a time whenever you want. SEE YOUR PROGRESS Every deck shows a live mastery ring and a colour-coded breakdown of where your cards stand. A statistics dashboard totals it all up across every deck — cards mastered, answers given, overall accuracy, and the running Energy count of every correct answer you've ever made. BUILT-IN SAFETY NET Graded a card wrong by accident? One tap takes it back. Reset a single card, or an entire deck, whenever you want a clean start. PRIVATE BY DESIGN DeckLearn has no accounts, no ads, no analytics, and no network access of any kind. Your decks never leave your iPhone. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to opt out of. Requires iPhone running iOS 17 or later.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Aswaat at every 4 days against DeckLearn's every 2 months. Aswaat also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
