Abstract: Abstract The traditional methods used for learning phonetics (LP) are somehow overwhelming and lack interactivity. Therefore, researchers adapted popular technologies such as Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR). Until now, there isn’t any review conducted about using MAR for LP. So, this review provides the basic knowledge needed for those interested in this field. MAR applications published between 2012 and 2022 are summarized, the technical requirements of making an LP MAR app are described and the benefits/limitations of using MAR for LP are discussed. The review showed that using MAR technology increased learners’ attention and made the learning process more interactive. Even though it still suffers in some areas, such as instability of marker tracking, inflexibility of updating AR content, and inability to correct learners’ pronunciation as it happens in real life by language teachers.
