Abi Modaris is probably the most horrendous looking app available on the iPhone. Not only does it look like an app designed back in 1996, it also looks like it was designed using Microsoft Word. But, the purpose of the app is pretty useful. Abi Modaris is Arabic for “I need a teacher” which is literally what this app is about. If you’re looking for a physics tutor, you just scroll down to physics and click on it to get a list of 18 different physics tutors. When you click on any one of them you get their phone number. Other than the horrible, horrible design, the biggest issue I see with this app is the lack of differentiation between all the tutors. So you’ve got a list of 18 physics tutors but there is no way to tell which is better or which is cheaper than the other. If there was some sort of feedback system were students or parents can rate the tutors then I think you’d have a much more effective app. Kinda like Yelp but for tutors.
If you’re interested in the app search for “Abi Modaris” in the app store. It’s free but there will be ads soon.

Why did you review this? Why?
I checked out this app. It’s awful. It looks like they took the teachers ads from the local free newspaper (like Alwaseet) and put them as they are in the app. They is no description of level of teaching offered, no differentiation of geographical areas, even the proper names of the teachers are not given ( Abo Amar, Abo whatever, seriously!). I have been looking for the right type of arabic teacher, for none Arabs, but could not find one. The idea behind this app is great, but the product is purely amature.
