About Arabivo
Arabivo, branded ArabivoWrite, teaches the Arabic script through handwriting practice. Learners trace outlines of letters, then their forms in different positions within a word, and finally whole words, using a finger, stylus or mouse, with short feedback after each trace so they know when to move on.
Lessons follow the natural order of the script, starting with isolated letters and moving to positions and connections, and practice uses the classic naskh style found in books and print. A daily challenge offers a new word each day and can be tried without an account, while signing in saves progress and streaks across devices. The app is mobile-first, optimized for iPad with a stylus and installable as a PWA.
Arabivo is a hosted subscription product, with the full course available through a paid plan. It suits beginners who want to build muscle memory for writing Arabic rather than only recognizing the letters.
