Al-Kitab now corrects your recitation — entirely on your own device. # Recitation Correction — Free, Offline, Private A brand-new engine listens as you recite and follows you word by word. It runs completely on your iPhone: no internet connection, no account, and nothing to pay. Your voice is never uploaded, never stored on a server, and never heard by anyone but you. What you recite stays on your device — where it belongs. That means it works in the masjid with no signal, on a plane, anywhere at all. * Marks appear under every word as you recite, showing what was confirmed and what needs another look. * You choose how strictly you are corrected: Off, Easy, Normal (checks vowel marks and skipped words), or Strict (adds shadda and madd lengths). * A session log gathers everything worth revisiting — tap any entry to hear the word again. # Quran Teacher The mode that lets nothing pass. It stops at the mistake, plays the word correctly, and waits — it will not move on until you say it right. It stops for a madd you held too short, not only for a wrong word, and it shows you exactly what it heard against what it expected. Patient, always available, and never in a hurry. # Recite, and the App Finds You * Recite from any verse — start anywhere in the Quran and the app works out where you are, then follows along. * Go to a verse by reciting it aloud, and its page opens. No page numbers, no scrolling. * Continuous recitation carries you from one Surah into the next without a single tap. # Memorization & Review * Review mode hides the verses and reveals each word only as you recite it. * New: stuck on a word? A gentle whisper says it for you and hands the microphone straight back — no need to break your recitation to look it up. * Listen-and-repeat plays each verse in your chosen reciter's voice, then listens as you repeat it. # Also New * A guided tour on first launch sets your correction level and daily goal in about a minute. * Share a range of verses as one beautifully typeset image, or as a recitation video in your chosen reciter's voice. * Surahs and Juz now share a single browser, and tracking moved to the microphone button in the footer. * Search, tafsir, and highlighting are all noticeably faster. May Allah accept from you and from us.
