About Towards Understanding Quran
Yes. For this new **Quran Understanding / Tafheem-ul-Quran English** app, the description should be substantially rewritten because the app now contains **multiple English Tafheem options**, audio, Mushaf mode, Word-by-Word translation, customization, bookmarks, Premium, etc.
One correction before the description: I believe you mean **Zafar Ishaq Ansari**, not “Javed Akbar Ansari.” I’ll use **Zafar Ishaq Ansari** below.
