Mango Languages is one of the few established course platforms that includes Uzbek. That much is certain. Mango’s Uzbek page, which we first found on 21 October 2026, describes the course’s features but not its size, so this page separates what Mango says about itself in general from what is known about Uzbek in particular.
We make Uzbekcha, which is on Android now and coming soon to iPhone. It is mentioned once, at the end. Check each product’s current listing before you decide.
Key points
- Uzbek is on Mango’s official available-languages list as of 17 September 2026, and had a course page of its own by 21 October 2026.
- That page describes features (native-speaker audio, cultural notes, grammar notes, a voice-comparison tool), not the course’s size.
- The Uzbek course’s length, levels and script could not be verified from public pages.
- Other tools for Uzbek differ in kind: games, phrases, sentences, tutors, a textbook.
What Mango says about itself
Mango’s App Store description presents a platform of conversational lessons in 70+ languages. The lessons are said to teach vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar and culture at the same time, and to be aimed at real conversations, whether you are preparing for a holiday, for work abroad or for study. On audio, its listing says: “Learn languages from native speakers with courses that feature thousands of real recordings.”
That is a clear method, and it is a sensible one for a language like Uzbek, where a set phrase such as Assalomu alaykum comes with a fixed reply, Va alaykum assalom, and a good deal of culture attached.
What is known about the Uzbek course
Less than you would like. On 17 September 2026:
- Uzbek was on Mango’s available-languages page.
- Uzbek was named in the list of languages in the App Store description.
- No public page we read gave the number of units, the level reached, the script used, or anything else specific to Uzbek.
On 21 October 2026 Mango also had a page for its Uzbek course. It describes conversation-first lessons with native-speaker audio, cultural notes, spaced-repetition review, grammar notes and a voice-comparison tool. It still gives no number of units, level reached or script.
We have not seen the course and make no claim about its depth in either direction. If you have access, the quickest check is the course’s table of contents: count the units and chapters, look at which alphabet the Uzbek is written in, and see whether grammar notes appear in the first few lessons.

A few notes on these.
Ling is the nearest in shape to a course app. Its Uzbek page says: “Lessons written and reviewed by native speakers.” It does not state script or level for Uzbek.
uTalk is vocabulary and phrases by topic, and says of its own method that it is speaking-first rather than built on grammar tables. It can be learned from many base languages.
Glossika works through whole sentences with audio. Its sample Uzbek sentence is in Latin script. The Uzbek page belongs to Glossika’s web product; we could not verify whether its newer App Store app includes Uzbek.
Transparent Language Online sells mainly to libraries, schools and government bodies, and its site notes that “Languages vary by organization.” Whether you can reach its Uzbek material depends on your institution or subscription, which we did not verify.
Tutors can do what no listing promises: answer your question about why kitob becomes kitoblarimizda. Both marketplaces list only a handful of Uzbek tutors at the time of writing.
Choosing between them
If you already have Mango, start there and judge the Uzbek course by its contents. If you are choosing from scratch, decide what you need most: a daily habit (Ling), words for a trip (uTalk), listening and repetition (Glossika), or explanations and speaking (a tutor or the textbook). For a first look at the language itself, our post on whether Uzbek is hard and the free phrasebook cost nothing.
Where Uzbekcha fits
Uzbekcha is the app we make. It is on Android through Google Play as a paid subscription, and coming soon to iPhone. It is a different kind of tool from a fixed course: an AI tutor whose lessons are built around your reason for learning, with your name in them, in Latin script. Lessons are in English, with other lesson languages planned.
