iQuran app review: combining all the holy content of the Quran with the functionality of iOS devices

Reviews

Introduction

If you are looking for an app that brings you the complete Quran along with translations, recitations, and an all-round fantastic user experience right there on your iPhone or iPad, then iQuran should conclude your search.

 

Containing the Complete Quran in the Uthmani Font along with verse-by-verse translations and a color-coded Tajweed or pronunciation guide, this app was originally priced at $6.99. The developers have recently had a change of heart, however, making this app available at a fraction of the cost at just $1.99. According to the developers, this new price is levied so that they may continue to bring lightning speed and high-quality audio downloads to iQuran users.

Dozens Of Translations & Tajweed

The iQuran brings you more than 35 translations to choose from depending on your liking, along with the Al-Muyassar and Jalal-Ad-Din Arabic options as well as a couple of English Transliteration options to help you better understand how to pronounce each verse perfectly. You can view the Quran in any language, from English and French to Thai and Albanian.

 

There are color-coded Tajweed guides to further help you with pronunciation including Ghunna, Ikhfa, Iqlab, and Idgham. The developers claim that this is the first smart phone software in the world that offers this function, which is possible thanks to the Dynamic Rendering Engine.

Display & Audio

This app fully supports the Retina Display and lets you view the text in both portrait as well as landscape modes no matter which screen you are on. If you have vision issues, you can easily change the settings to a bigger or smaller font. There are five options to choose from: small, normal, big, large, and huge. There is a split index screen with Surahs and Sections that can be scrolled individually, giving this app an amazing feel.

 

To bring up lots of various options with verse text, simply cap and hold down any verse to pull up the options sheet where you can bookmark, take note, send it as an SMS, Email, Twitter, or Facebook, copy the verse, or simply or use it to view translation from a translator other than the currently selected one.

 

iQuran features some astounding high quality audio capabilities. The content includes continuous recitations by renowned artists from all over the world including Mahmoud Al Husary, Sa'ad Al Ghamdi, and many more. Audio controls are intuitive just like the music player on iOS devices, which completely eliminates the learning curve to use this app and there is full background audio support so you can listen to recitations while you read the text or even use other apps.
