ARC Arabic Alphabet Course

This is the best app for learning the Arabic alphabet that I have come across. I like its clarity and simplicity, along with sufficient examples, including useful audio. Visually the app design is clean and uncluttered. I would give five stars, but the problem is that the audio has stopped working. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, but still have the same problem. If this bug can be fixed, the app will be perfect.

This is a solid 5 star app. I've downloaded over 10 apps for learning the alphabet but this is the ONLY app that is truly effective. The app teaches the letters gradually and provides numerous practice words in flashcard form that only use the letters already taught, so you get an intense drilling. It is surprisingly hard to find these 'simple' words for practice (my human teacher couldn't). Don't bother with the Alif Baa book ($20-30), you just need this app. The low ratings appear to be from random folks whose app was incompatible with their phone - it doesn't reflect on the app quality. One suggestion would be to provide an option to turn on/off the randomization of the practice words in Step 3, rather than make it the default. Also it would be good to allow switching to Step 1 for a quick check, then switching back to Step 3 without the word changing.

Fantastic app but the listen button keeps on not working whilst I'm using the app. It will work at first and then stop working for no reason. Phone volume is fine and on loud, tried with and without headphones etc so it's definitely not my phone. Please let me know how to change this?

I like that this app is about more than just saying the alphabet. It actually gives you practice of reading too, which is what I was really needing. It would also be good to get a score to measure my progress on the flashcards.

Very good app for learning arabic. Possible to finish all the lessons in a couple of days if you really put in the effort. Try out the quizzes on the website, very useful too

Easy to use and worth the cost. Wish there were more vocabulary words that were useful to learn. Also, not all letters or sounds are taught so just be aware that it is basic for beginners.

I've learned so much from this app in so little time ! It makes reading simple and helps with pronounciation as well. I never usually buy apps because i never think it will be worth it but this one was !

A very useful app. Goes through the alphabet a few letters at a time grouped by similar shapes or sounds and there is a practice session after each group which reinforces all the letters learnt before.

I can hear the words when I press the "listen" button. :( Other than that the app is great

What a great way to learn to read Arabic. The app is very easy to navigate. The lessons are easy to follow. I'd love if the quizzes were added to the app too. I'm using this app on a Samsung GS3.

This is great app but the audio issues, while fixable by restarting it, are really driving me nuts.

A nice straight forward app with loads of practice flashcards. It's great to have the audio for letters and words.

It's easy to use and clear, but I miss the quizzes, which are crucial.

I am loving this app and the online course!

Very useful app. There are issues with the listen button functions.

I was pleased to find an alphabet app not aimed at kids. This one's a lot more in depth.

Crashes every time

I haven't used it in a while now that I'm in somewhat of an immersion course, but it was great on my desktop. I realized I could re-rate this mobile app and apologize to Sarah for not figuring it out sooner. Hoping my son can use it for our next trip to the Middle East. He got the hang of the first couplet of lessons on the website. Great tool. Also, Sarah was really helpful when I was having issues with the phone app. So A+ customer Service!

Crashed everytime

Ive been using the website and downloaded the app and its great. It's helped me loads. No idea why people are complaining about the crashes as it's working flawlessly on my Samsung tablet and Moto g phone as well as on my HTC work phone.

I've been trying to learn to read Arabic for a while now so I've found this really helpful and user-friendly. Also great that the course can be accessed both from website and app.
