What Qurannotate is

Qurannotate is a Qur'an study app. You write, draw and type your notes straight onto the Qur'an. When you finish a note, it tucks back into the page, so your reflections stay attached to the verse, word, surah or page they belong to.

It is for anyone who studies the Qur'an's meanings: students, teachers, people attending classes or lectures, and anyone keeping personal reflections.

What you can do

• —Annotate the Qur'an. Add notes at four levels: a whole page, a surah (at its title banner), a verse, or a single word. Each note opens as a large canvas where you can handwrite, highlight, type, add shapes, images, verses and hadith.
• —Keep notebooks. Create blank notebooks for class notes, journals and study plans: freeform canvases, typed documents, ready-made study templates and multi-page journal packs.
• —Read with meaning. Open translations, word-by-word meaning and tafsir beside the page.
• —Listen. Play verse-by-verse recitation from a choice of reciters.
• —Study with AI. Ask the AI Study Assistant about a verse or your notes, and turn lectures into transcripts (this uses AI credits).
• —Share and collaborate. Share a mushaf view-only or edit it live with others.
• —Export. Save your notes as PDF and Word (DOCX) files.
• —Track your progress. See your streak, daily goal, activity and a leaderboard with friends.

Qur'an scripts (mushaf types)

When you create a Qur'an mushaf you choose one of these:

• —Ayah by Ayah: verse-by-verse layout with a translation under each verse. You pick the script (Uthmani, IndoPak or Tajweed Colours) and a translation (Taqi Usmani, Abdul Haleem, Al-Mukhtasar Tafsir or Sahih International).
• —Uthmani: the standard Madinah script, 604 pages.
• —Tajweed Colours: colour-coded recitation rules, 604 pages.
• —IndoPak: South Asian script style, 849 pages.
• —Traceable: a mushaf for practising handwriting, 604 pages.
• —Word by Word: Arabic with an English meaning under each word, in Uthmani (604 pages) or IndoPak (849 pages), with optional transliteration.

Notebook formats

• —Canvas: freeform drawing and notes.
• —Document: typed rich text (headings, lists, tables, images, ayahs).
• —Templates: pre-built study layouts (Daily Reflection, Tafsir Notes, Surah Dashboard, Ayah Worksheet, Theme Deep Dive, Uloom al-Surah, Daily Planner, Weekly Planner).
• —Journal Pack: themed multi-page journals (30 Juz Journal, 114 Surah Journal, Ramadan Journal, 90-Day Reading Plan).
• —Import: start a notebook from a PDF, images, Word or PowerPoint file.

You can have up to 10 mushafs and notebooks on your dashboard at a time.
