Free Quran Memorization Apps: What You Get Without Paying

Key takeaways

  • Several Quran memorization apps are free with no paid tier: Quran.com, Hafiz Quran, QuranH, Sadr, Tahfeez, Easy Quran Hafiz and Quran Loop. Tasmi is free too, and Hifza says it is free for now.
  • A free review schedule exists. Hafiz Quran, QuranH and Sadr all describe spaced repetition at no cost.
  • A free recitation check exists in newer apps. Sadr says it detects errors word by word, and Hifza says an AI teacher flags the wrong word. Both are very new, so treat them as worth a trial, not a replacement for a teacher.
  • Tarteel and SABR are free to start, but their strongest features are not clearly free. Tarteel's live mistake detection is Premium, and SABR does not say whether its coach is free.
  • We make Quran Loop, so read our entry with that in mind. Every fact about another app comes from its own listing or site, checked on 11 October 2026.

Yes, there are free Quran memorization apps with no subscription: Quran.com, Hafiz Quran, QuranH, Sadr, Tahfeez, Easy Quran Hafiz, Tasmi and Quran Loop. Some of the newer ones even include a free review schedule or a free recitation check.

We make Quran Loop, one of the apps below, so we say so here and mark where another app fits better. Every fact about another app comes from its own listing or site, checked on 11 October 2026.

What does “free” mean for a Quran memorization app?

It means different things, and the difference decides whether the app is still free next year. Look for which of these four applies before you build a habit around an app.

Tasmi’s App Store listing shows no in-app purchases, so it sits in the first group, but it is too new for us to say more.

How do the free apps compare?

Here is each app on the same criteria. “Not stated” means we did not find the feature on the app’s own page; it may still exist.

The free apps, one by one

Quran.com

Quran.com is a free site and iPhone and iPad app for reading, listening and study. Its web player has Repeat Settings: a single verse, a range or a full surah, with a set number of plays and a delay. The iPhone app lists repeat counts from 1 to 100 times.

  • Best for: repeating audio and looking up translations and tafsir, all at no cost.
  • Limits: its pages do not mention a recitation check, a review schedule or hiding the text. More in our Quran.com alternatives guide.
  • Platforms and price: web, iPhone and iPad. The App Store listing shows no in-app purchases.

Hafiz Quran

Hafiz Quran is a web app that calls itself a 100% free memorization tool with no ads, no subscriptions and no sign-up. Its site says it is funded by donors. An optional sign-in syncs your progress.

  • Best for: a free review schedule in the browser.
  • Strengths: a spaced-repetition scheduler (FSRS), repeats of each ayah from 1 to 20 times, looping a range, 19 reciters, translation, transliteration, word-by-word meaning and tajweed colors. Played ayat can work offline.
  • Limits: the site does not mention hiding the text or checking your recitation. Progress is saved locally unless you sign in.
  • Platforms and price: any browser. Free.

QuranH

QuranH schedules your reviews with the FSRS algorithm, set to a retention target of 92 percent. You learn a passage in two rounds: listen with word-by-word highlighting, then recite from memory and compare with the text yourself.

  • Best for: an Android user who wants a free, automatic review schedule that works offline.
  • Strengths: cloud sync, reciters including Al-Husary and Al-Minshawi, and eight interface languages. Its Google Play listing says no ads and no in-app purchases, and calls it free for good.
  • Limits: very new. When we checked, Google Play showed 5+ downloads. The listing does not mention repeating a verse, and nothing checks your recitation for you.
  • Platforms and price: Android, plus a web app on its site. Free.

Sadr

Sadr is built on sabaq (new verses), sabqi (recent revision) and manzil (older revision), with spaced repetition adjusting your program. Its listing says that when you recite aloud, the app analyzes your pronunciation word by word and detects errors in real time.

  • Best for: a free plan plus a recitation check, on iPhone or Android.
  • Strengths: a short starting evaluation, a Tartil mode where the words gradually disappear while you listen, 15+ reciters and 14 interface languages. No ads and no subscription, and the site accepts donations.
  • Limits: new. When we checked, Google Play showed 1K+ downloads and the App Store showed 5 ratings. We could not judge how accurate the voice check is, and the listing does not mention repeating a verse. A voice check does not replace a teacher who hears your tajweed.
  • Platforms and price: iPhone (iOS 16 or later) and Android. Free.

Hifza

Hifza is a web app for memorizing ayah by ayah. You hide the text and recite, and an AI teacher listens, points to the wrong word and gives a score. Reviews come back after 4 hours, 1 day, 3 days and a week.

  • Best for: trying a free recitation check without installing anything.
  • Strengths: all 114 surahs, a daily streak, progress for each surah and sign-in with Google or a phone number.
  • Limits: the site says every feature is free “for now”, without saying what comes later. It does not say how accurate the AI is, whether it works offline or who runs it. It does not mention repeating a verse.
  • Platforms and price: any browser. Free for now.

Tahfeez

Tahfeez is an Android app for looping. You pick any range, from one ayah to a surah, set how many times each ayah repeats and let it play. Its listing says free, no ads and no account.

  • Best for: an Android user whose main need is repeating a range, with downloads for offline use.
  • Strengths: 16 reciters, Android Auto, browsing by surah, juz or mushaf page, and it remembers your last ayah, reciter and repeat settings.
  • Limits: new, with 10+ downloads when we checked. The listing does not mention a recitation check or a review plan.
  • Platforms and price: Android. Free.

Easy Quran Hafiz

Easy Quran Hafiz is a plain ayah-by-ayah Android app. You choose a range, repeat the selected ayahs and mark each ayah as memorized. It also offers translations and transliteration.

  • Best for: an Android user who wants a simple, established app with a memorized checklist.
  • Strengths: it is the most used app here, with 100K+ downloads and about 2.2K ratings on Google Play. The listing says free with no ads.
  • Limits: no recitation check or review schedule on the listing.
  • Platforms and price: Android. Free.

Tasmi

Tasmi guides you through a surah ayah by ayah, with stages for listening, reading, reciting from memory and using the verses in prayer. Memorized ayahs go into a review deck that uses spaced repetition.

  • Best for: an iPhone user who wants a free, structured path.
  • Limits: very new, with one rating when we checked, English only and an iOS 18.6 requirement. The listing does not mention repeating a verse or checking recitation.
  • Platforms and price: iPhone and Mac. The listing shows no in-app purchases.

Tarteel and SABR (free to start)

Both let you start without paying, but the features many people want are less clearly free.

  • Tarteel: the free tier on its App Store listing includes following your recitation, unlimited listening and voice search. Live mistake detection, hidden verses and Smart Goals are Premium, with a free trial. It also runs a pay-what-you-can program, Alim, for people who cannot afford Premium. More in our Tarteel alternatives guide.
  • SABR: its site says free to start, with no credit card and no ads. The Al-Fatihah, Ya-Sin, Al-Mulk and Al-Kahf plans are marked free. It does not describe its paid plans or say whether the AI coach is free.

Quran Loop

Quran Loop is our free web app. You pick a chapter and a verse range, choose a reciter, and the recitation loops while each Arabic word lights up. It has no ads and no paid tier.

  • Best for: looping a passage, testing yourself and tracking the verses you keep forgetting, on any device with a browser.
  • Strengths: Test yourself shows only the first word of each verse and stops before each one so you can recite it. You can mark weak verses while you listen and loop only those later, and playlists group saved loops. The Mushaf view shows the Madani 15-line page or the IndoPak 13, 15 or 16-line page. How the weak-verse tracking works is on the Quran revision app page.
  • Limits: it does not listen to you or check your recitation, and it does not schedule your reviews. Hafiz Quran, QuranH and Sadr do the second for free, and Sadr and Hifza try the first. There is no iOS or Android app: it runs in your browser, and on most phones you can add it to your home screen.
  • Platforms and price: any device with a modern browser. Listening as a guest works from the start, and a free account saves more loops, weak verses and playlists.

How do you choose?

Start with one free app for your main job and add a second only if a gap remains. Combining two free apps is common and costs nothing.

  1. You need to repeat verses, and nothing else. Quran.com does it well. The research behind the numbers is in how many times to repeat a verse.
  2. You want the app to schedule your reviews. Try Hafiz Quran, QuranH or Sadr. If you prefer to plan reviews yourself, follow how to revise the Quran.
  3. You recite alone and want a check. Try Sadr or Hifza, and tell your teacher what the app flags. Both are new, so give each a week before you rely on it.
  4. You want to test yourself and loop your weak verses. Use Quran Loop, with Quran.com beside it for tafsir.

Free apps can change, and the small ones can disappear. Keep your own list of what you have memorized, so you can move to another app without starting over.

No app replaces a teacher who hears you recite and corrects your tajweed. Use an app between lessons. For the wider field, including paid apps, see the best Quran memorization apps.

Your next step

Pick one app and use it every day for a week. If you are not sure how much to learn each day, start with the Quran memorization plan. To see how Quran Loop handles test mode and weak verses, the features page has short clips.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free Quran memorization app?

Yes, several. Quran.com, Hafiz Quran, QuranH, Sadr, Tahfeez, Easy Quran Hafiz, Tasmi and Quran Loop are free, and their own pages or listings show no paid tier. Which one fits depends on whether you need to repeat verses, test yourself, check your recitation or schedule reviews.

Is there a free hifz app with no subscription?

Quran Loop, Hafiz Quran, QuranH and Sadr each say they have no subscription and no ads. Hafiz Quran says it is funded by donors, and Sadr accepts donations. Hifza says every feature is free for now, which leaves room for that to change.

Which free Quran app checks my recitation?

Sadr says its voice recitation analyzes your pronunciation word by word and detects errors. Hifza says an AI teacher finds the wrong word and gives a score. Both are new, so check the results with a teacher. Tarteel's mistake detection is part of Premium.

Which free Quran memorization app has spaced repetition?

Hafiz Quran uses the FSRS scheduler, QuranH uses FSRS with a 92 percent retention target, and Sadr uses spaced repetition across sabaq, sabqi and manzil. Tasmi has a review deck with spaced repetition, and Hifza sends review reminders after 4 hours, 1 day, 3 days and a week.

Which free app can repeat a verse on loop?

Quran.com has repeat settings in its web player and a 1 to 100 times repeat in its iPhone app. Hafiz Quran repeats each ayah 1 to 20 times and loops a range. Tahfeez and Easy Quran Hafiz do this on Android, and Quran Loop does it in a browser.

Why is a Quran app free, and could it start charging?

The apps here are funded by donations, by a non-profit or by the developer. One of them, Hifza, says only that every feature is free for now. Check the listing again before you rely on any app for years of hifz, and keep your own record of what you have memorized.
