Finally the deluxe version of our Arabic Keyboard. We are the same developer of the primitive Arabic Email Keyboard.

This deluxe version of the application will enable the user to comunicate perfectly in arabic. ALL CONTEXTUAL CHARACTERS such as the Isolated, final, medial and initial forms are included!

The Arabic alphabet is the script used for writing several languages of Asia and Africa, such as Arabic, Persian, and Urdu.

Finally people wanting to send email messages in this language through the iPhone will be able to do so! Incredulously, there is no default keyboard in this important language in the basic features of the phone. There is no other application that will enable you to send messages in this language.

One last detail, after you send the email to the "Mail Application", you may see some "squared" characters in the subject field, dont worry because the e-mail will arrive fine! (recipient will see the email correctly, he/she will not see those characters in most email clients).


Our next version will also let you edit the text fully, including fonts, colors. format and size!

Keywords: Arab, Muslim, Arabic and Middle East.

Update: Feb 6, 2009. We now provide a tool to search YouTube videos in Arabic, please search for this new application under Arabic YouTube Search. Thank you.

Update: Feb 8, 2007. Some buyers requested us to increase the size of the fonts, we are happy to inform you that we sent a new update to Apple increasing the size of the font and also fixing some small bugs. You should expect a FREE upgrade soon.

Pros and cons of Arabic Email Keyboard Deluxe app for iPhone and iPad

Arabic Email Keyboard Deluxe app good for

This is a nice addition to the iPhone for Arabic-language speakers. A glaring deficiency on Apples part is the lack of Arabic language support for the iPhone despite the fact that the iPhone is being officially released in some Arabic countries. This app is a good start to try to fill the gap. It would be nice if an option to send the composed message by SMS is added.
This application is one of a kind so far. I am able to send E-mails in arabic for the first time from my iPhone. All the arabic letters are available in every possible form. As you type, sentences proceed from right to left as they should and for the first time ever on the iPhone you see the letters attached appriopiately to form normal arabic words and sentences. So far I found only two minor issues: the boxed squares that appear in the title of the E-mail revert to normal arabic words only if you send the E-mail to a computer and open it on the computer screen, but if you send the E-mail to another iPhone E-mail client, the recepient will still see only boxed squares in the title area. Secondly, when you read the E-mail on a computer screen, all the body of the message is displayed in a small area to the left of the screen about the size of an iPhone screen, instead of looking like a regular E-mail across the entire screen. One badly needed update is adding sounds as you hit the keys to give some sort of feedback. Otherwise, this is a must have application for anyone who uses Arabic Alphabet. Correction: Im sorry for reporting in my initial review that there are no sounds associated with the keyboard. This is incorrect. I did not realize that my phone was silenced at the time. Tapping any key makes the same sound as Apples built in key board. So, now I give it a five star.
This is a step in right direction, I dont know Arabic but wanted to write in Urdu. It can almost work for Urdu if it had 3 more letters. Please, please put a few more letters and if we can change the size and colors of the font than this will be one great app.
I bought this today and its excellent. You have to see it for yourself. All possible forms of the letters are there. Works great. This developer did a good deed creating this app. Very prompt responce to email also. Excellent customer support, I must say. This app is a must get app for any one that wants to send real, appropriately attached Arabic script email from their iPhone. A huge thanks to the developer for filling in the gap.
Really good programm but please add the landscape modus for easier typing!

Some bad moments

The Iphone already includes an arabic keyboard that works in any typing apps. This one doesnt add anything interresting. A waste of $$
this software needs lots of improvements as the idea of typing is very time consuming , i do not recommend it unless some one is in desperate need to send (only) e mails from i phone in arabic , just wait until Mac includes arabic full support in its firmware it is only matter of time , and i guess it is soon.
It would be nice if you could develop it so that we can even read Arabic when received.
very poor appl don"t even think to buy it, i wish i can refund my money .
Not practical. Very slow since the user needs to determine which form of the letter is used in each position. It is limited to email. A step in the right direction, but a very small one.
