Maylee: American Mahjong
Practice and Play Mah Jongg
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
American Mahjong, beautifully made.
Every tile in Maylee was hand-illustrated, drawing inspiration from our favorite Chinese porcelain - Rose Medallion and Bok Choy! Each tile is an original piece of art, because we believe the game deserves to look as beautiful as it feels to play.
Perfect for beginners!
Never played before? Maylee's gentle tutorial walks you through everything you need to know - the tiles, the Charleston, calling, exposures, and how to read the card! So you can learn one step at a time, without the pressure!
Practice whenever you want - No wifi needed! Whether you're between club games, traveling, or just can't find a fourth, Maylee is always ready to play.
Everything you need to enjoy the game -
• Official 2026 Cards
• Maylee Cards designed for new players
• Daily challenge hands
• Hand hints to guide your strategy
Play 2 free games per day or subscribe for unlimited play!
Maylee was made by two sisters who love mahjong and wanted something truly beautiful to play on their phones! We hope you love it!

Tile sounds are here!! Every tile discarded now has its own unique sound effect — bams, craks, dots, winds, dragons, flowers, and jokers all get their moment. Toggle it on under Play Your Way and turn up the volume!

What's New in Version 1.41
Thank you so much for playing Maylee Mahjong and for all your kind words and feedback — it truly means the world to us! Here's what we've been working on for you:
Fixed a crash that could occur when resuming a saved game
Fixed an app freeze that could occur on older devices (especially iPad) during gameplay — things should feel much smoother now!
The game timer is no longer shown during gameplay — we felt it added unnecessary pressure! Time is still tracked quietly in the background so your Best Time on the Wins & Milestones screen stays accurate and only counts time you're actively playing
Fixed a bug where the timer would continue running while the app was in the background
Fixed a broken Terms & Conditions link
Tile positions in your hand are now preserved after performing a joker swap
We're so grateful to be on this journey with you and can't wait to keep making Maylee better. Keep the feedback coming — we read every message!
