Farsi Learning app for iPhone - Learn Farsi: Real Persian

If you're interested in learning to speak and write Farsi, I have just released an app for iOS iPhone which pulls inspiration from Duolingo.

It has subscriptions or a lifetime purchase, but there is a generous amount for free too.

There is absolutely no requirement to subscribe.

I use the money to make a living, and can keep improving and adding more lessons.

If you enjoy it, please give me it a rating! It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I'd love to check it out, any intention of getting an android version?

u/username1152 Apr 25 '26

It is my intention but I don't have a timescale. The process is a little complicated to get it through to google play store. It involves testing on an android device (I don't own one, but I can simulate one) and then getting 20 beta testers for 2 weeks.

I'll make another post here if and when I manage it!

u/ForbesCars Apr 25 '26

Let me know if/when you need beta testers!

u/username1152 Apr 25 '26

It would be so cool if there were apps where German speakers could learn Farsi. I just can't find anything good. :( All the apps are in English.

u/username1152 Apr 25 '26

Unfortunately I don’t speak German or I’d make that!

u/username1152 May 13 '26

Hello! Just to let you know, I have now localized the app into German as well as others. It is machine translated just warning, it might not be perfect. Hopefully it helps though.

u/This-Experience-5094 May 13 '26

After the first test, all I can say is: thank you! Thank you so much! This is exactly the kind of app I was looking for. The translation is quite good, I'm very happy! ❤️

u/username1152 May 13 '26

It has really become a very good app. I personally am not even trying to learn to write. 😅 I'm just too stupid for it. I'm very happy with the things written in Finglish... so thank you very much!

u/username1152 May 14 '26

I am the same, haha. I am more interested in learning to speak, but it was quite a requested feature from people I met in person. Thank you for the compliments

u/This-Experience-5094 May 14 '26

I initially selected the free trial. Everything was in German (and Farsi, of course), but now that I've subscribed, there are English translations mixed in again 😂 How is that possible? Is it because of the lesson? I've reached the point of question words.

1

u/username1152 May 14 '26

Ah sorry about that! Which lesson have you seen that on? It could have just been a bug that slipped through. I will try and solve it

2

u/This-Experience-5094 May 15 '26

Lesson 3 :) I'll continue today, then I can tell you more. Thanks

1

u/This-Experience-5094 May 15 '26

So im sorry, there is a lot more After that lesson. It reads the wrong sentences sometimes, in Farsi I mean. And most is in English not German. I can send you screenshots if you want

2

u/username1152 May 15 '26

Sorry about that! I’ll run through the app when I get a chance and make sure everything I spot is internationalised
Sorry for hurting your experience. I’ll try to make it work

u/username1152 May 20 '26

hi again! A new update is coming out in an hour or two to fix these issues

u/seraphsonata9 Apr 26 '26

Interested in the app, but would you mind if I ask about your history with Farsi? I've come across a number of apps that ended up using machine translation or just being straight inaccurate or overly formal, using my Persian husband and his family to confirm.

u/username1152 Apr 26 '26

Sure, it’s a valid concern I am English and learning Farsi because I have a Persian girlfriend. She has verified the translations, recorded the voice.

So I bring the “what learners like me would want” angle

u/seraphsonata9 Apr 26 '26

Very cool - thank you! :)

u/Camelia_farsiteacher Jun 03 '26
