Estimated revenue

A model estimate with a likely range, not a reported figure.

No estimate. Apps outside the grossing charts, and some countries, have no reliable rank-to-revenue curve, so we show nothing rather than a guess.

How this estimate is made

Rank: we take the app's best Top Grossing rank on the latest chart day. Category ranks are converted into an equivalent overall rank, because a #10 in Finance earns far less than a #10 overall.

Curve: that equivalent rank is read off a rank-to-revenue curve anchored on public company revenue and market-data reports for the US iPhone App Store.

Country: the curve is scaled per country (Japan is roughly a third of the US, Türkiye under 1%). Where we have no scale, such as China, there is no estimate.

Range: the likely range widens with country, category and chart depth. It is a plausible span, not a statistical confidence interval.

Not included: ads, payments outside the App Store, and any difference between gross sales and what the developer keeps. Low confidence means indirect data; medium means several independent sources agree.

About this app

Text from the App Store listing.

Al-Kitab is an advanced Quran experience combining ease of use with rich content in a modern, distraction-free design — your daily companion for reading, memorizing, and reviewing.

Recitation Correction — On Device, Offline, Free

  • Recite aloud and the app follows you word by word and turns the page with you — no internet needed, and your voice never leaves your phone.
  • Choose how strictly you are corrected: Off, Easy, Normal (checks vowel marks), or Strict (adds shadda and madd lengths).
  • Quran Teacher mode stops at a mistake, plays the correct word, and waits until you say it right — including a madd held too short.
  • Marks appear under every word as you recite, showing what was confirmed and what needs another look.
  • A session log gathers everything worth revisiting — tap to hear the word again.
  • Start reciting anywhere in the Quran and the app works out where you are, then follows along.
  • Recite a verse aloud to jump straight to its page — 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.
  • Stuck on a word? A gentle whisper says it for you and hands the microphone straight back.
  • Listen-and-repeat plays each verse in your chosen reciter's voice, then listens as you repeat it.
  • Daily reading goal, streaks, and detailed statistics for time, verses, and sessions.

Complete Reading Experience

  • Three Mushaf display options: Madinah Mushaf, Book simulation, and Large Text Mushaf.
  • Elegant "Al-Kitab" Mushaf cover gives a distinctive start to the app.
  • One tap marks the last verse you read, so you resume exactly where you stopped.
  • Page history lets you return to any page you visited.
  • Tajweed colouring with a legend, and a gentle buzz at each new Surah.
  • Landscape reading fills the screen; split-screen and free-form sizes on iPad.

Advanced Tools for Understanding the Quran

  • Long-press any verse to read its tafsir, choose a tafsir book, and move between verses.
  • Eleven Arabic tafsir works — Al-Muyassar, Al-Muharrar, As-Sa'di, Ibn Kathir, At-Tabari and more — plus English translation and transliteration.
  • Tap any word for its meaning, grammar, morphology, variant readings, and pronunciation.
  • Word derivatives, linguistic information, and the verses they appear in, with charts.

Khatma & Focus

  • Set a full Quran reading plan with a target date, daily portions, and reminders.
  • Follow your progress and finish with a shareable completion card.
  • Stay Focused blocks distracting apps while you read, with a Live Activity countdown.
  • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your verse, streak, and Khatma progress.

Advanced Audio Capabilities

  • Listen with 40 reciters, with offline download support.
  • Verses shown one by one while listening, or full-page in landscape.
  • Word-by-word pronunciation for any word you tap.

Sharing

  • Share a verse — or a whole range — as a beautifully typeset image.
  • Create a recitation video of any passage in your chosen reciter's voice.

Smart & Precise Search

  • Fast and comprehensive Quran search.
  • Advanced search powered by the "Al-Fanoos" engine.
  • Quran word bar for precise access to terms.
  • AI-powered search that understands meaning, not just words.
  • The Al-Kitab Assistant responds in your language — play a Surah, jump to a verse, or ask about a topic, by voice.

Customization & Personal Experience

  • Favorites list for quick access to selected Surahs.
  • Your last read page and bookmarks sync across all your devices.
  • Night mode or automatic mode according to device settings.

Everything you need for a deeper, easier, more personal Quran experience — in one carefully designed app.

What’s new

Release notes for the latest version, as written by the developer.

v6.8

New Reciters, Word by Word — Follow Every Word the Reciter Says

The reciter list now holds more than 150 recitations.
While a surah plays, the word the reciter is saying is underlined in the mushaf, and the player shows the ayah as printed in the mushaf, as large as the screen allows.

Test My Hifz — Flashcards From What You've Memorized

In your Hifz Journey: cards of up to three ayahs from what you've memorized.
Recite each from memory and its words appear as you go.
Fewer words show as you advance until none are left, then the word is prompted if you pause.
The bar fills until you've recited everything you've memorized. The previous button is now Review My Hifz.

Library Bookshelves — Your Books on Real Shelves

Every section of the Islamic Library is now a shelf of books.
Tap a book and it comes off the shelf with its details.
In My Books, your books line up in front of you, with a glimpse of the page you stopped at.

Reading Improvements — Flexible Modern & Khatma Bar

When you enlarge the text in Flexible Modern, the lines now reach from edge to edge, like the printed mushaf.
And your daily Khatma progress bar stays visible while tracking your recitation, instead of disappearing.

Performance & Fixes

Bug fixes and speed improvements throughout the app for a smoother, more stable experience.
