It's a big deal for millions of users. According to the language learning app Babbel, Arabic is the fifth most spoken language in the world with over three hundred million native speakers.
In addition to adding support for Arabic, users can now also change their preferred contact number in the app. Version 4.7 also includes the usual round of performance improvements and bug fixes:
