By: Alesya Arabic languageis nowadays considered native to over 200 million people, representing about 3% of world population. This puts it on par with the most widespread languages of the world (after Chinese, English, Hindi and Spanish). As for the market of mobile applications, Arabic-language applications are very limited, despite the fact, that there is a large number of people for whom Arabic is their native language. Given these factors, on September 22 the Arabic language was added to the multilingual Toozla service. Toozla works under the development of mobile GPS audio guides for various mobile platforms. In addition to professional guides there are guides based on the geo-referenced articles from Wikipedia in the Toozla infosphere. After adding the Arabic language into the service, Toozla has the opportunity to include Arabic articles from Wikipedia into its guides. As a result Toozla travel guides were supplemented with 5400 stories in Arabic in different cities and countries.
