Why you don't support Persian language?

hello! There are about 100 million people all over the world who speak Persian but Apple doesn't support this language. For example I'm a writer and in want to buy iPad for do my job but unfortunately I found that Persian language is not in your language list which Apple support. I think it is not a positive point for Apple, because there are many people like me that find they can not do their job with Apple producs. I hope you do something to solve this limitation. thank you

iPad, iOS 8.1.1

For apple to see your request, you need to repost it at

But all Apple desktop and laptop products DO support both reading and writing Persian language without any additions, and have done so for many years.


The iPad has also always supported reading Persian language, and starting with iOS 8 you can easily add a Persian keyboard from the app store, such as

Ask Apple not to ignore Persian language !

It has been years since Apple completely ignored a language which is the official in 3 countries and spoken by more than 100 million people.
We all know that political sanctions put by United estates on Iran was gone and in 2015 there is no reason for an international company like Apple to put sanction on
a language!
Although Apple has all kind of services for right to left languages like Arabic there is even no keyboard available for iOs Persian users.
The Persian language is one of the old languages of the Indo-european family and is full of world class literature. Lots of world known poets and writers like Rumi, Sadi, Hafiz, … chose Persian language and other companies like Google and Microsoft support Persian, but strangely Apple completely ignored it for no obvious reason.
We hereby ask Apple and its CEO Mr. Cook to end this policy and let millions of Apple users who speak Persian use their products with their language.
