Apps and websites for learning Arabic

Tools for learning Arabic on your own: apps, websites, dictionaries and reference tools, each checked against its official site or app-store listing. Each shows its level, the language it explains in, whether it is free, and the devices it runs on.

This section lists Modern Standard and Quranic Arabic only, as the whole site does: anything that also teaches colloquial dialects is left out. Prices are not given — only whether something is free or paid — because they change; the official site has them.
