Well-known apps like Rosetta Stone, Duolingo or Babbel offer no Jordanian courses, but there are other apps for learning Jordanian that are just as good.

Bluebird Jordanian App
Jordanian Lessons and Exercises
Systems: Android and iPhone apps, online version (PC and Mac)
Content: Jordanian exercises with native speaker audio and speech recognition
Prices: USD 9.99 (1 month), USD 100 (12 months), USD 200 (unlimited), USD 400 (163 languages)
Overall Value: 
The Bluebird App offers 146 source languages and 163 target languages and dialects, including Jordanian Arabic.
The Jordanian language course in this app includes the following:
-
Daily video lessons in three difficulty levels
-
Basic Jordanian vocabulary on several dozen topics
-
Common Jordanian verbs with conjugations
-
Analysis of your own pronunciation (with speech recognition)
-
Tests: listening comprehension, filling in word gaps, vocabulary quizzes
There are about 500 video lessons for learning Jordanian, each 5 to 60 minutes long. For languages with other scripts, the words can also be displayed transliterated in the Latin script.
The Bluebird app has no grammar lessons. Instead, you are supposed to understand the grammar "implicitly" from the examples, like in Rosetta Stone.
Summary: The video lessons and the interface take some getting used to, but the exercises are quite varied. Especially for smaller languages, this app is a viable alternative.
Memrise Jordanian App
App with User-Generated Lessons
Systems: Android App, iPhone App, Online-Version (PC and Mac)
Content: Jordanian lessons and vocabulary trainer with native speaker audio, grammar
Prices: USD 8,99 (1 month), USD 60 (12 months), USD 110 (unlimited)
Overall Value:
With the Memrise App you can learn over 90 languages.
This includes even very small languages - however, in such cases the language courses are often limited to just a few lessons.
One special feature of the Memrise learning app is the large number of lessons created by users (native speakers).
The quality of these lessons varies greatly though. For example, only the basic forms of verbs are usually taught, without the conjugations. Some languages also do not have an audio recording of the words at all.
Another good idea of the Memrise app are the user-generated tips and mnemonics for each word to help you memorize them.
Summary: User-generated lessons are a good idea. In practice, the quality of the lessons leaves a lot be desired.
Mango Jordanian App
Includes Grammar
Systems: Android and iOS Apps, Online Version
Content: Jordanian lessons with native speaker audio, grammar, culture
Prices: USD 7.99 (1 month), USD 80 (1 year),
USD 18 (1 month and 70 languages), USD 180
(1 year and 70 languages)
Overall Value:
The Mango Languages App offers 70 languages, including Jordanian Arabic.
This app also has some grammar lessons and cultural explanations. The explanations in English are all recorded and well done.
However, the number of lessons for learning Jordanian Arabic is quite small, which means that this app is only suitable for absolute beginners.
There are no exercises, except for the repeated vocabulary tests.
You can also record your own pronunciation in the app and compare it with the recording of a native speaker.
Summary: Good quality, but not much vocabulary. Only for absolute Jordanian Arabic beginners.
Pimsleur: Eastern Arabic
Most Expensive Software to Learn Eastern Arabic
Systems: PC and Mac (incl. Mobile App)
Suitabe for: Beginners, advanced, students, travel vocabulary
Content: Eastern Arabic vocabulary, lessons with native-speaker audio and speech recognition
Price: USD 150 (Basics)
Overall Value: 
The Pimsleur App is very similar to Rosetta Stone in that it does not give grammar explanations, verb conjugation tables, etc.
Instead, the Pimsleur method is supposed to let you learn the Eastern Arabic dialect intuitively, just like your native language - by combining pictures, reading and speaking (speech recognition).
The complete course includes a total of five courses (levels 1 to 5). The beginner course is level 1.
Each of the five courses offers 30 daily lessons of 30 minutes each and there are various interactive exercises.
This Eastern Arabic learning course for PCs and Macs also includes a mobile app for Android and iOS systems.
Summary: The most expensive beginner course, even though it is unlikely that learning with it is much better than with the cheaper apps.
