No subscription, no account. 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 read in Arabic. Turn on color-coded tajweed, with a legend for all 18 rules. Search, read in light or dark, 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. READ TOGETHER Join a sitting with a parent, a teacher or a friend — up to ten people on the same page, and what the host shares is yours to keep. Free to join. PREMIUM Turn the moments you'd spend scrolling into remembrance: • MINDFUL PAUSES + APP BLOCKING — the apps that pull you away stay shielded with Apple Screen Time. Complete a brief reflection and they unlock for a window you set, 15 minutes to 6 hours — then shield again. • NOTES & HIGHLIGHTS — press and hold to mark words in five colors and attach a note. Reading and deleting your own notes is always free. • HOST A READING SITTING — share a code and read one page together, wherever everyone is. • WEEKLY LEADERBOARDS — agree a weekly reading goal with family or friends. Minutes show up to the goal, never past it; everyone who reaches it wins the week. • READING TOOLS — follow along with a gentle highlight moving word by word or verse by verse, test your hifz with Memorize mode, and record your recitation to hear where you paused. Recordings are never uploaded. • QUR'AN READING GOALS — set a daily goal for yourself or assign one to your child; the automatic 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, searchable instantly. • LEARN YOUR DEEN — stories of the prophets, guides to wudu, salah and the special prayers, the foundations of faith, and the 99 Names. • HALAL SCANNER (beta) — photograph an ingredient label and each ingredient is checked against our rulings database, compiled from published halal-certifier references. Halal, haram or doubtful, with the reason — up to 15 scans a day. Guidance, not a fatwa. • FAMILY MODE — guide up to four children from one parent dashboard: assign pauses and reading goals, and see each child's streaks and daily reading time. Children never need their own subscription. • Plus custom adhkar, tasbih streaks and records, and a performance page. AUTHENTIC & SOURCED Every verse, hadith, du'ā and lesson names its source, and a Credits screen honors the King Fahd Glorious Qur'an Printing Complex. FULLY IN ARABIC & ENGLISH Choose your language when you open the app: in Arabic everything is Arabic, right to left. For iPhone and iPad. Start with the Qur'an, prayer, and dhikr — free.

Every chapter says plainly what is free and what is Premium. Choose your language first, and your account is the natural last step. THE PAUSE SCREEN, REDESIGNED The moment a pause begins is the heart of the app, and it now looks like it. The verse or hadith stands alone on a deep emerald canvas, set as large as the screen allows. The Unlock button is the timer: a gold line traces its edge as the seconds pass and the button turns gold when it is time. Emergency Unlock is always on screen, under the Unlock button — never below the fold, never disabled. In Arabic the verse is shown alone, right to left; long texts scroll; large text sizes are respected. SIGN IN AND CREATE ACCOUNT, IN THE SAME ROOM Sign in with Apple comes first, then your email and password. Creating an account keeps its three clear steps — who it is for, how you sign in, your details — now in the same design, with a reminder on the code screen to check your spam folder if the email is slow to arrive. PREMIUM, SHOWN Using the app without an account? The Premium tab now shows what each feature looks like — the shielded apps and the reflection that opens them, a day's reading against its goal, the pacer and Memorize mode, a recitation and its hesitations, a label in the viewfinder, the week's board, a parent with four children — with one line on what it does and one line on its limits. What stays free is listed plainly. One tap creates your free account; a parent can start family setup directly. ALSO • Weekly leaderboards: when two readers share the same streak, whoever reached the week's goal first ranks higher. • The emergency-unlock confirmation no longer tells solo users that a parent will be notified. • A few hadith carried a stray formatting tag from their source; they read cleanly now. • Build numbers aligned across the app and its extensions. ### 1.1.3 — 2026-09-24 READ TOGETHER Open the Qur'an with someone else. Host a sitting, read out a six-digit code, and up to ten people follow the same page. Anyone can tap a word to point at it on every screen, and the notes the host shares stay on your device afterwards, filed under their name. Joining a sitting is free. NOTES & HIGHLIGHTS Press and hold any word to mark it in one of five colors, extend the selection across a phrase, and attach a note. Everything you mark is listed in Notes & Highlights, kept apart from what you were given in a reading session. Reading and deleting your notes is always free. WEEKLY LEADERBOARDS Set a weekly reading goal with family or friends, share an eight-digit code, and see where everyone stands. Minutes are shown up to the goal and never past it, so nobody is ranked on how much more they read than you — everyone who reaches the goal wins the week. A NEW WELCOME Creating an account now starts with one question: who is it for — yourself, your family, or are you joining your family? Each answer explains what it gives you before you choose. Then continue with Apple, or with your email. FIXED • The Qibla compass read about 90° off when the phone was held sideways, and could quietly settle on magnetic north instead of true north. It now corrects for how you are holding the phone, turns the short way around north, and tells you when the magnetometer needs a moment. • The 99 Names widget on the Lock Screen showed Arabic to readers using the app in English. • On an Arabic device, the pause screen showed its verse reference and hadith grading in English. • In the reader: the green surah band sat too tall on its line, opening a highlighted chapter showed the page twice, and a recitation stopped playing the moment you opened the page to read along. All three are fixed. • A calmer opening animation, and the app no longer sits on a plain loading spinner while it starts. ### 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. ### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-28 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.
