Text or Arabic displays incorrectly

Update your device to the latest OS version (iOS or Android) and make sure Arabic language support is installed (on iPhone: Settings › General › Language & Region; on Android: Settings › System › Languages & input).

RecitID shows the Quran in its own fonts, so most display problems come from settings or downloads rather than from the phone. Work through these in order:

1. Check your system version. RecitID needs iOS 17.6 or later, or Android 8.0 or later. Older versions may not lay out Arabic correctly.
2. Check the layout. The Mushaf layout shows the printed Madinah page, so lines are fixed and won't reflow. For larger text that wraps, switch to Verse by Verse or Compact using the Aa button ("Reading options") in the reader, and adjust "Text size".
3. Check the Tajweed font. Tajweed colours need a one-time download of about 160 MB and work only in the Mushaf layout. If colours are missing, make sure the download finished. If you're not on Wi-Fi: on iPhone, turn on "Download over cellular" in Settings › Reading › "Mushaf Style"; on Android, RecitID asks first, so tap "Download now".
4. Check your translation. If you see a different translation from the one you chose (on iPhone, "Reading options" shows a note like "Showing … — … isn't downloaded"), download your translation under Settings › Language › "Translation Language".
5. Check your app language. If the menus are in the wrong language, on iPhone go to Settings › Appearance › "App Language" in RecitID, which opens RecitID's page in the iPhone Settings app.
6. Update RecitID to the latest version from the App Store or Google Play.

If text still looks wrong, take a screenshot and send it with "Report a Problem" in Settings. Tell us the surah and ayah (or the Mushaf page) and which layout you were using.
