Privacy Policy

Mishkah · مشكاة

Last updated: 27 August 2026

Mishkah does not collect your data. There is no account, no analytics, no

advertising, and no server belonging to us. This policy describes the whole of

it, because there is very little to describe.

What we collect

Nothing. Mishkah has no backend. The app makes no network requests of its

own, and no information about you is transmitted to the developer, ever.

What stays on your device

windows and the qibla direction. Stored only on your device.

your device.

Apple; we store only a local flag recording that you are a supporter.

Deleting the app deletes all of it.

The one thing that leaves your device

When you grant location, Mishkah asks Apple's geocoding service to turn your

coordinates into a city name, so the app can show "Riyadh" rather than a pair of

numbers. Those coordinates go to Apple under

Apple's Privacy Policy. They do not come

to us, and they are not sent anywhere else.

If you would rather this never happened, do not grant location. Mishkah then

uses Makkah as its default and remains fully functional.

Third parties

There are none. Mishkah contains no advertising, analytics, attribution or

crash-reporting SDK. Its only external components are two open-source libraries

that run entirely on your device and have no network access: GRDB (a local

database) and adhan-swift (prayer-time calculation).

Tracking

Mishkah does not track you across apps or websites, and does not ask for

permission to do so.

Children

Mishkah is rated 4+ and is safe for all ages. It collects nothing from anyone,

children included.

Content

The Qur'anic text is Tanzil's Uthmani edition, used verbatim. Translations are

by the Rowwad Translation Center. The mushaf typefaces are the King Fahd

Glorious Quran Printing Complex's, redistributed unmodified under their licence.

Adhkar are from Hisn al-Muslim. Full attributions are inside the app.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the date above changes with it. Because the app

collects nothing, we do not anticipate material changes.
