Privacy Policy

Who we are

Azan Plus is developed by Crescent Studio. If you have any questions about this policy or the app, you can reach us at crescentstudio.info@gmail.com.

What information the app uses, and why

• Location. Used on your device to calculate accurate prayer times and your Qibla direction. If you use the "Use my location" option, your device's GPS coordinates are read locally and used for these calculations — they are not sent to us, because we have nowhere to send them to.
• Notifications. Used only to alert you at prayer times, entirely on your device. No notification data is sent anywhere.

What's stored only on your device

The following is saved locally on your phone and never leaves it:

• Your chosen location and prayer calculation method
• Your notification and adhan sound preferences
• Your daily prayer completion history (the Tracker)
• Your Quran bookmarks and reading position
• Any duas you write and save yourself
• Your language and display preferences

Uninstalling the app removes this data. (One technical note: some Android phones automatically back up app data to your Google account and can restore it if you reinstall — this is a phone-level feature, not something Azan Plus sends anywhere itself. You can turn this off for the app in your phone's own backup settings if you'd prefer a fully clean slate on reinstall.)

The few times the app talks to the internet

Azan Plus works fully offline for its core prayer-time calculations. A small number of optional features do need an internet connection, and only send the minimum needed to work:

• Nearby mosques & halal places — your current coordinates are sent to the OpenStreetMap Overpass service to find nearby results. This is a public map data service; we don't operate it and it doesn't require you to sign in.
• London prayer times — if you select the London Unified Prayer Timetable as your calculation method, the app fetches published times from londonprayertimes.com.
• Quran audio recitation — verse audio is streamed live from quran.com when you play it. Nothing is downloaded or stored permanently; if you're offline, this feature simply doesn't play.

None of these services are used to identify you personally, and Azan Plus does not attach your name, email, or any account identifier to these requests — because the app doesn't have that information about you in the first place.

What we don't do

• No user accounts or sign-in of any kind
• No advertising, and no ad networks embedded in the app
• No analytics, crash reporting, or usage tracking
• No selling, renting, or sharing of any data — we have none to share
• No data collection directed at children specifically; the app collects nothing regardless of who uses it

Changes to this policy

If this policy ever changes — for example, if a future version adds a genuinely new feature that needs different data — we'll update this page and the "Last updated" date above.
