For this purpose, it stars with the definition of Mobile-Assisted Language Learning and the review of how cell phones have been used for foreign language learning. The transition to an information society, the need of lifelong learning, and fast developments in mobile information and communication technology establish the foundation of mobile learning. The ever-increasing ownership of mobile devices such as cellphones, MP3 players, PDAs, smartphones and wireless laptops has led teachers and learners to integrate mobile technologies into everyday practices of education in general. Foreign language learning is one of the promising areas that seem to benefit from these developments. Learners can not only make good use of the mobile devices to listen to and record audio and watch video at any time, but also be supported by the rising availability of podcasts, mobile Web, and other services which encourage authentic and spontaneous interactions in collaborative way. Recently, in particular, smartphones have captured tremendous attention of foreign language teachers and learners as an ideal tool for satisfying new needs of mobile learning era. This is attributed to the fact that the state-of-the-art smartphone has developed into a tool which combines audio, video, text and data files with an Internet connection. Along with this trend, the launch of iphone service has brought in a massive amount of educational applications to the market. Some of the most promising applications designed for foreign language learning will be presented. Finally, some drawbacks and challenges of smartphone-based foreign language learning will be discussed.

For this purpose, it stars with the definition of Mobile-Assisted Language Learning and the review of how cell phones have been used for foreign language learning.
