Type Thai teaches you to type Thai on a native-style keyboard you'll actually use every day. Because typing is where Thai gets real: joining the group chat, ordering off the local menu, reading signs that don't match the textbook, and texting friends in their language. Everything you need to master the script: • Learn the Alphabet from Scratch: New to Thai script? The Basics section covers every consonant and vowel with reading and listening practice — so you're ready to type. • Lessons & Hints: Take you from your first key press to your first complete Thai message. • Native Pronunciation & Tone Tools: Learn how the language actually sounds with real-time feedback. • Real-World Font Comparisons: Switch keyboard layouts and output fonts to match the exact script variants you'll see on streets, signs, and menus. Try the first lessons completely free. When you're ready to master the script, choose the option that fits your journey best: unlock everything forever with a single lifetime purchase, or choose a flexible weekly, monthly, or annual subscription. Start with a 7-day free trial to experience the full app entirely risk-free. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Graded Thai reading, made effortless. AanThai gives you a large, growing library of Thai stories to practice reading, and a reading experience so smooth you'll actually keep going. Everything you need is one tap away, right on the page, so you stay in the flow instead of jumping to a dictionary every other word. A LIBRARY TO READ THROUGH A large and growing collection of stories graded from Beginner to Advanced, so you can always find something at the right level of challenge. Follow multi-part series or read standalone stories on travel, family, festivals, and daily life. Real Thai, written to be read. New stories added regularly. STAY IN THE FLOW The whole point is seamless reading. Hit a word you don't know? Tap it. The meaning and romanization appear instantly, without leaving the page. Want the gist of a sentence? Tap it for a translation, or keep translations hidden to push yourself. Nothing interrupts your reading unless you ask it to. GO DEEPER, ONLY WHEN YOU WANT Long-press any word for more: a full dictionary entry, a plain-English explanation of its nuance in context, example sentences, or a grammatical breakdown of the whole sentence. It's there when you're curious and invisible when you're not. HEAR YOUR STORIES, PERFECTLY SYNCED Enjoy high-quality, natural-sounding Thai narration, with each word lighting up exactly as it's spoken. Reading and listening stay locked together, so you connect sound to script and train your eyes and ears at once. Slow the audio down to match your pace, or just sit back and follow along. SAVE WORDS AND MAKE THEM STICK Tap to save any word as you read, then review it with built-in spaced-repetition flashcards, the proven method for long-term memory. Each card shows the word in the exact sentence you found it, with audio, examples, and context, so you remember how it's really used, not just a dictionary gloss. READ IT YOUR WAY • Dark mode and adjustable Thai fonts and text sizes • Romanization, frequency colors, and word spacing you can toggle freely • Color-coded underlines show how common each word is at a glance TRACK YOUR READING See stories completed and watch your vocabulary grow by frequency band over time. AANTHAI PREMIUM Read free stories, look up words, and try the reviewer with a free account.
