Ratings and reviews

I very much like the new overhauled version of the app for the famous Hans Wehr Dictionary! It even has a list of occurrences for Qur'anic words! You can choose the color of the search bar, the background and highlight colors, and much more! There are also many fonts available. It has a link to Quranle, an app to learn the Qur'an, and another link to some collections of hadiths.

Very good app. Really appreciated. It would be really helpful if you added a 'history' option to revise the previously search words. And also this app is not available for Apple devices. It would be great if it is for Apple also 😇❤💫

Simple and easy to use methodology. Just type in Arabic and get the result. Arabic language contains many words which don't have a literal translation in modern languages. What sets this dictionary apart is the efforts to get as near as possible in providing the exact translation. Recommended for all, the novices,the learners and the masters.
