## Description

It features essential Arabic words, including modern vocabulary, country and city names, alongside basic Quranic words and specialized terminology in Hadith, grammar, and orthography.

## Review summary

Users broadly praise Al-Wafi as a useful Arabic–Bengali dictionary with offline access and strong support for learners, including Arabic-medium students. However, multiple reviews flag stability issues after recent updates (back button exit/blank screen, status bar visibility) and search problems tied to spacing. There is also a recurring demand for more vocabulary and regular updates to expand word coverage. Overall, the app is valued but in need of bug fixes and content improvements.

- Offline functionality; can use without a constant internet connection.
- Helpful across levels from beginners to advanced learners; consistently praised.
- Popular choice for Arabic-medium/madrasa students.

### Cons

- Stability/UI bugs after the latest update, including the back button exiting the app or showing a blank screen (and status bar issues).
- Search reliability problems related to word spacing; some words do not appear in results.
- Requests for more vocabulary and updated word coverage in upcoming releases.
