Is there a Quran app that supports Apple Pencil?

Yes — Qurannotate is a Quran app built for Apple Pencil on iPad. You can handwrite notes against any verse, draw freely on an infinite canvas, and annotate the text by hand, then have everything sync across your devices. It is purpose-built for study and reflection rather than just reading.

Generic canvas apps let you scribble on a PDF mushaf, but nothing ties your handwriting back to the verse it belongs to. Qurannotate is iPad-first and Apple Pencil-native: your handwritten notes, underlines and drawings attach to the exact element you are studying.

Pan and zoom across an infinite canvas to lay passages side by side, sketch the structure of a surah, or map a theme across the Quran by hand. Switch to Document Mode for structured, drawable pages, or Blank Mode for free journaling and hadith notes.

Everything you draw syncs across web, iOS and Android. Qurannotate is a new, early-access app focused on study — not recitation or memorisation.
