Jawi script is very important because the Jawi script position reflects the identity of the Malays and almost equals Arabic script which indirectly enables the reading of the Qur'an among those who study Jawi script. In addition, most sources of Islamic Education knowledge are written in Jawi script. Thus, Jawi script become one of the areas taught in the subject of Islamic Education. Based on the Jawi analysis of the mid-2018 examinations for second year students, Sekolah Kebangsaan Seksyen 19, showed that 56% of 157 students lacked the skills to recognize and write connecting and non-connecting character. This finding shows that some students are ignorant and incompetent in the Jawi ways of connecting. As a result, Jawi-AR Apps which is a smartphone application that integrates Augmented Reality (AR) technology has been developed with the aim of helping to improve Jawi characters' connecting knowledge and skills in keeping with digital technology in today's society. In conclusion, this apps can help provide early exposure and interest of students to learn Jawi and provide self-learning.
