Qamari Privacy Policy
For the Android app Qamari (prayer times, Hijri calendar and tasbih), package app.qamari.hijri.calendar.tasbih.
Effective 25 October 2026. Published by Morocode LLC.
The short version. What you put into Qamari stays on your phone, and we never see it. The app does send Google two things about itself: a crash report when it breaks, and anonymous figures about how it is used, so we can tell whether it works. There is no account, no sign-in and no advertising, and nothing you typed is ever part of those reports.
Who we are
Morocode LLC, a limited liability company registered in Wyoming, United States, publishes Qamari on Google Play. Our registered address is 30 N Gould St Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801, United States. You can reach us at line07221996@gmail.com about anything in this policy.
What the app holds, and where
Qamari stores the following on your device, in storage that belongs to the app and that other apps cannot read:
- The place prayer times are for: the town you picked, or the approximate position your phone gave when you tapped Use my location, with its time zone.
- Your prayer settings: the calculation method, the Asr rule, any minute adjustments, and which prayers remind you, when, and with which sound.
- Your tasbih counts: the running count and lifetime total of each dhikr, and how many you counted on each day.
- Dhikr you add yourself: the name, the Arabic text and the target you set.
- Notes you put on a day in the calendar, and whether you asked to be reminded of them.
- Your own settings: the calendar, the date adjustment, which digits are shown, the reminder time, the language and the theme.
- A copy of the official month starts (see The official Hijri date below), the same small file for everyone.
All of it stays on the phone. It is not transmitted, and we have no way to see it.
Your location never leaves the phone
- Qamari asks for approximate location only, and only when you tap Use my location or turn on Update when I travel, which looks again only when you open the app. It never asks for your precise position and never reads it in the background.
- The position is used on the phone to find the nearest town, its time zone and the direction of the Qibla, and to work out prayer times. It is never uploaded, not to us and not to Google.
- Searching for a town uses a list of towns built into the app, so what you type is not sent anywhere either.
- Prayer times, the Qibla direction and the Hijri date are all calculated on the device and work offline.
The official Hijri date
Many countries start each Hijri month on their own announcement, so the date can differ by a day
from one country to the next. To show the date your country actually uses, Qamari downloads one
small file from our server, hijri.morocode.com, about once a month and around the start
of each month. The file is the same for everyone and lists when each month began in each country.
- The request carries nothing about you: no location, no country, no account, no identifier and none of your data. The app picks your country's dates out of the file on the phone.
- Like any website, our server sees the IP address the request comes from; it is kept only in ordinary server logs for up to 14 days, to keep the service running, and is never combined with anything else.
- If the file cannot be reached, Qamari keeps using the last copy it has, and its own calculation before that.
Everything else stays on the phone
- Your counts, notes and settings live in Qamari’s own storage on your phone and are never uploaded. Apart from the file above, the only thing Qamari transmits is described under What the app sends to Google below.
- Android’s cloud backup and phone-to-phone transfer are switched off for this app. The backup file in Settings is the supported way to move your counts and settings to a new phone, and where that file goes is your decision.
- There are no ads in Qamari, and it does not use your phone’s advertising ID.
- The privacy policy and terms open in your browser. Opening a link hands the address to the browser you chose.
What the app sends to Google
Qamari includes two Google services, and they are the only things it reports about itself:
- Crashlytics — when the app crashes or freezes, it sends Google a report describing where in our code it went wrong, along with the device model, the Android version, the app version and how much memory and storage were free. We read these to fix the bug. They never contain what you typed.
- Google Analytics for Firebase — counts of things like the app being opened, a screen being viewed, or a feature being used, together with the device model, language, country (worked out by Google from the network; the location Qamari uses for prayer times is never passed to it), app version and a randomly generated installation identifier. It tells us how many people use the app and which parts they use.
What is never included: your location or the place you chose, your dhikr counts, your notes on a day, or anything you typed. The events are counts and names of features, not your records.
The installation identifier is a random number created when you install the app. It is not your phone's serial number, not your advertising ID and not anything that identifies you as a person. It is reset if you clear the app's data or reinstall it.
These reports are processed by Google on our behalf under Firebase's data-processing terms and Google's Privacy Policy. We can see totals and charts. We cannot see an individual person.
Turning it off. Android's own Settings › Google › Ads lets you opt out of personalised advertising, and Settings › Google › Usage & diagnostics governs what Google collects from your device generally.
Google Play
The app is distributed through Google Play, and two things there involve Google rather than us:
- Crash and performance reports. Google Play collects these from Android devices for every app, under your own Android and Google account settings, not ours. They tell us how often the app crashed. They contain no content from inside the app.
- The review prompt. When the app offers you Google Play's rating sheet, that sheet is Google's, and anything you write in it goes to Google Play, not to us.
Both are governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
Permissions, and why
- Approximate location, only when you ask, to find the town prayer times are for. It never leaves the phone (see above).
- Notifications for prayer reminders and the adhan, to tell you that Ramadan, an Eid or another day is coming, and to remind you of the white days if you switch that on.
- Alarms and reminders (exact alarms), so a prayer reminder comes on the minute rather than when Android finds it convenient.
- Playing the adhan (a media-playback foreground service): while the adhan plays, Android shows a notification with a Stop button. It runs only for the length of the adhan.
- Internet, only to download the official Hijri date file described above, and for the Google services described below.
- Start at boot so the next reminder is put back in place after a restart.
- Vibration for the tick under your thumb while you count, if you leave it on.
Android asks you for the sensitive ones, and you can withdraw any of them at any time in your phone's settings. The app keeps working with whatever you allow.
Files you create yourself
When you export or back up from inside the app, the file is written wherever you choose, using Android's own file picker. From that moment the file is an ordinary document under your control, and anything you do with it, such as putting it in a cloud drive or sending it to someone, is outside the app and outside this policy.
Keeping and deleting your data
Your data stays until you remove it. You can delete individual entries or clear everything from inside the app, and uninstalling Qamari removes its database and settings from the phone. Because nothing is ever uploaded, there is no copy anywhere else for us to delete on request.
Children
Qamari is a general-purpose tool and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect anything from anyone, of any age, since we collect nothing at all.
Your rights
Privacy laws such as the GDPR and the CCPA give you rights of access, correction, deletion and portability over personal data held by a company. We hold none: your data never leaves your device, so you already have complete and direct access to all of it, you can correct or delete any of it in the app, and the export feature gives you a portable copy. There is no request to make of us, and nothing we could disclose about you even if we were compelled to.
Changes to this policy
If the app ever starts handling data differently, this page will be updated before that version is released, and the effective date at the top will change. Material changes will also be described in the Google Play release notes.
