This exploratory literature review investigates the landscape of educational mobile applications designed for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Arab countries, with a specific focus on their efficacy in improving communication skills. After a comprehensive search of academic databases and digital libraries, nine studies were reviewed. These studies discussed seven Arabic-language applications designed for ASD children. Consistent with previous research findings, these applications were found to be effective in enhancing communication skills among ASD individuals. By shedding light on the few existing Arabic-language educational mobile applications for ASD children in Arab countries, this comprehensive review contributes significantly to the discourse surrounding ASD interventions. Additionally, it highlights the immediate need for linguistically and culturally sensitive educational applications, designed for a specific population of Arab children with ASD.
