## What is NoorPause?

NoorPause is your daily companion for the Qur'an, prayer, and mindful living — and the heart of it is free. Read the complete Qur'an, follow your prayer times, and keep your daily adhkar with no subscription — and no account needed.

FREE FOR EVERYONE

THE COMPLETE MADINAH MUSHAF
All 114 surahs, page for page with the printed Madinah Mushaf — the same 604 pages, 15 lines each, in the authentic Uthmani script. Prefer scrolling? Switch to a continuous layout at any text size. Tap for the meaning: an English translation with transliteration, or the Arabic tafsir when you use the app in Arabic. Turn on color-coded tajweed as you read. Search by surah, verse reference, Arabic text or translation, read in light or dark, turn your phone sideways for a verse at a time — and your place is saved for next time.

PRAYER TIMES & QIBLA
Accurate daily prayer times with a live countdown to the next salah, your calculation method and madhhab, and a smooth animated Qibla compass. Home and Lock Screen widgets — next prayer, all prayer times, a daily reflection, the 99 Names of Allah and your tasbih count — each in light and dark.

DHIKR & ADHKAR
Your daily adhkār, “Du'ā for Every Occasion” for 56 moments in 8 themes, and 72 du'ās from the Qur'an, all searchable, with every card naming its source. Plus a tap-anywhere Tasbih Counter that even works from your Lock Screen.

PREMIUM
Turn the moments you'd spend scrolling into remembrance:
• MINDFUL PAUSES + APP BLOCKING — choose the apps that pull you away and they stay shielded (using Apple Screen Time). Complete a brief, meaningful reflection and they unlock for a window you set, 15 minutes to 6 hours — then shield again.
• READING TOOLS — follow along with a gentle highlight that moves word by word or verse by verse, test your hifz with Memorize mode, and record your own recitation to hear where you paused. NoorPause never uploads your recordings.
• QUR'AN READING GOALS — set a daily reading goal for yourself, or assign one to your child; the automatic reading timer and streaks quietly build the habit.
• HADITH LIBRARY — 18,698 hadith in Arabic: Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and Jami' at-Tirmidhi with at-Tirmidhi's own gradings. Search it all in an instant.
• LEARN YOUR DEEN — stories of the prophets, step-by-step guides to wudu, salah and the special prayers, the foundations of faith, and the 99 Names of Allah.
• HALAL SCANNER (beta) — photograph an ingredient label and each ingredient is looked up in our rulings database, compiled from published halal-certifier references. An honest answer — halal, haram or doubtful, with the reason — up to 15 scans a day. Guidance, not a fatwa: always double-check what matters to you.
• FAMILY MODE — guide up to four children from one parent dashboard: assign pauses and Qur'an reading goals, and see each child's streaks, history and daily reading time.
• Plus your own custom adhkar, tasbih streaks and records, and a performance page you can read at a glance.

AUTHENTIC & SOURCED
Every verse, hadith, du'ā and lesson is referenced to its source, and a Credits screen honors the King Fahd Glorious Qur'an Printing Complex and every source we build on.

FULLY IN ARABIC & ENGLISH
Choose your language the moment you open the app. In Arabic, everything is Arabic, in a true right-to-left experience. In English, the translation sits alongside the original Arabic. Designed for iPhone and iPad.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.2 — 2026-09-14

DU'Ā FOR EVERY OCCASION
A new adhkar library: your daily adhkār, 56 occasions in 8 themes — from prayer, home and travel to hardship, illness and Hajj — and 72 du'ās from the Qur'an. Search by words, meaning or occasion. Every card names its source, and says so where scholars differ on a narration.

TASBIH COUNTER
Tap anywhere on the screen to count, with a gentle vibration and a daily total. Keep counting from your Lock Screen without unlocking, from a Home Screen widget, or with the Action Button.

TAJWEED COLORS
Turn on color-coded tajweed in the muṣḥaf, with a legend for all 18 rules. Free for everyone.

SIGN UP WITH EMAIL
Create an account with your email: we send a 6-digit code to confirm it's you. Sign in with Apple works as before.

SOLO OR FAMILY, YOUR CHOICE
Move from Solo to Family, or back, right from Settings. A new guide in Settings → Help walks you through it.

MORE RELIABLE
• App blocking and scheduled pauses now work on every iOS version NoorPause supports, not only the newest.
• The "Apps locked" notification and the block screen now appear in the language you chose in the app.
• You stay signed in when you open the app without internet.
• A clearer subscription screen, and many smaller fixes.

Tasbih streaks and records, and the new Feedback & Ideas board, are part of NoorPause Premium.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-09-01

FREE FOR EVERYONE, NO ACCOUNT NEEDED
The complete Madinah muṣḥaf, prayer times and Qibla, and your daily adhkar are now free — no subscription, no sign-up. Open the app and read.

A SECOND WAY TO READ THE MUṢḤAF
Prefer scrolling to turning pages? Choose the continuous scroll layout and set the text as large as you like. The reader asks once when you first open it, and you can switch anytime in Settings.

THE 99 NAMES ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN
New widgets move through all 99 names of Allah across the day, set in the muṣḥaf script, in light and dark.

HADITH LIBRARY
Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and Jami at-Tirmidhi in Arabic — 18,789 hadith. Search the whole library in an instant, and come back to exactly where you stopped reading.

RECORD YOUR RECITATION
Recite a page, then listen back with a map of where you paused — your own practice, in your own voice. Recordings stay on your device; NoorPause never uploads them.

FOLLOW ALONG WHILE YOU READ
The gentle highlighter now works in the scrolling layout too, moving word by word or verse by verse at your pace, and waiting for you at the end of every page.

A CLEARER PERFORMANCE PAGE
Rebuilt to be read at a glance — completion ring, streaks and a daily chart. Emergency unlocks now show their full history, including the ones used from a Qur'an reading goal.

Also: landscape reading on iPad, Arabic refinements throughout, and a long list of fixes.

The Hadith Library, recitation recording, follow-along, reading goals and the Performance page are part of NoorPause Premium.

• Follow-along tilawah, Memorize mode for hifz, light & dark reading pages, and a landscape verse-by-verse view
• NEW Halal Scanner — photograph an ingredient label for an honest halal check (Premium)
• Daily Qur'an reading goals for you and your children (Premium)
• Learn How to Do Things — step-by-step guides for every feature, in Settings → Help
• Full Arabic throughout, plus dark-mode and reliability improvements

Jazakum Allahu khayran for every review — they mean the world.

### 1.0.8 — 2026-08-19

• HALAL SCANNER — photograph any ingredient label and every ingredient is checked against our rulings database, verified against published halal-certifier guidance. Honest answers: halal, haram, or doubtful, with the reason. Guidance, not fatwa — we did our best to verify every ruling, but always double-check what matters to you. 15 scans a day.

• DAILY QUR'AN READING GOALS — set one for yourself, or assign one to your child. Until the day's reading is done, the unlock button opens the Qur'an instead; finish, and apps open as usual. Reading done any time of day counts, and the Emergency Unlock is never blocked.

• LEARN HOW TO DO THINGS — step-by-step guides for every feature, now in Settings → Help, in English and Arabic. Plus a gentle one-time tip the first time you open each page.

• Polish — the prayer-times handle now appears only on the Dashboard, a cleaner "who is this goal for?" picker, and a minimalist reading-goal pill that never covers the Qur'an page.
