Arabic for beginners, with English support

Learning a new alphabet is easier to approach one letter at a time. Learn Arabic Together pairs Arabic text with pictures and spoken audio, while keeping navigation in English. It is made for children learning with family, and welcomes adults starting with the basics.

Touch on iPad. Remote on Apple TV.

On iPad, browse by touch and use playback controls. On Apple TV, move through large cards with your remote and select what you want to hear. Both experiences focus on Letters, Numbers and Words.

The current App Store listing is for Apple TV with tvOS 17 or later. The iPad version targets iPadOS 17 or later and is not yet listed.

Listen to Arabic pronunciation at your own pace

Replay a letter, number or word as often as you need. Letter examples include English meanings to help connect the new sound to a familiar idea. Spoken audio uses Apple text-to-speech; the app does not record or assess your pronunciation.

Take turns choosing a card, say the word together and look for a matching object nearby. Short, relaxed practice can fit into an ordinary family moment.

Simple learning, without an account

The app has no advertising, analytics or in-app purchases. Preferences stay on the device. The current Apple TV app is a paid download; check the App Store for the price in your region.
