Urdu is an Indo-Aryan language with about 104 million speakers, including those who speak it as a second language. It is the national language of Pakistan and is closely related to and mutually intelligible with Hindi, though a lot of Urdu vocabulary comes from Persian and Arabic, while Hindi contains more vocabulary from Sanskrit. Linguists consider Standard Urdu and Standard Hindi to be different formal registers both derived from the Khari Boli dialect, which is also known as Hindustani. This App is designed to learn Urdu in a fun way. Designed by Sarbjeet Singh Graphics by Gurpartap Singh Popy

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Ling at 4.6 against Learn Urdu's 3.5. Ling also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (15K vs 4). Learn Urdu's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 22) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ling sells 20 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Learn Urdu asks for nothing beyond the download.
Ling holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ling has 15K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 57% of Learn Urdu's written reviews are positive against 61% of Ling's.
Learn Urdu ships an update every 12 months, Ling weekly. The most recent releases landed on June 9, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
