Iqro Ummah (“the app”) is a Qur’an learning app — Iqro volumes 1–6, the full Qur’an with Indonesian translation, tajwid rules with audio examples, prayer times, and a qiblah compass — published by G Labs. This policy explains what the app does with your information.
1. Who we are
Iqro Ummah is published by G Labs. If you have any question about this policy or about your data, contact us on WhatsApp at +62 851-2802-5065.
2. What Iqro Ummah stores on your device
Everything you do in the app is stored in the app’s own private storage on your device, which other apps cannot read:
- Notes — the study notes you write, including any link they carry to an Iqro page, a Qur’an verse, or a tajwid rule.
- Learning progress — your last-read Iqro page and Qur’an verse.
- Prayer settings — your chosen location (city name and coordinates) and which prayer reminders you switched on.
- App preferences — language, light/dark theme, transliteration setting.
We cannot see any of this. It is on your device, not on a server.
3. Permissions the app asks for, and why
| Permission | Why Iqro Ummah needs it |
|---|---|
| Location (while in use) | To calculate prayer times and the qiblah direction for where you are. The calculation happens entirely on your device; your coordinates are never sent to us or anyone else. You can refuse this and pick a city by name instead. |
| Notifications | To show the prayer-time reminders you switch on yourself. Reminders are scheduled locally on the device; nothing is sent from outside. |
| Motion sensors | The qiblah compass reads your device’s compass (magnetometer) to point toward the Ka’bah. Sensor readings are used on-screen in the moment and never stored or transmitted. |
You can refuse any of these. Refusing location means prayer times use a city you pick manually; refusing notifications means no reminders. The rest of the app keeps working.
4. When information leaves your device
- City search. When you search for a city by name, the text you type is sent to the public Open-Meteo geocoding service to find matching places. That is the only information sent — no identifiers, no coordinates, no account.
- Naming your GPS location. When you use GPS, the app asks your device’s own operating-system geocoder to turn coordinates into a city name for the label shown on screen. This is handled by Android/iOS on the device, not by a G Labs server.
Iqro Ummah makes no other network requests. The Iqro pages, the full Qur’an text and translation, tajwid material, and all audio examples are bundled inside the app and work completely offline. There is no background sync, no telemetry, and no automatic upload.
5. What we do not do
- No analytics, crash reporting, or usage tracking of any kind.
- No advertising and no advertising identifiers.
- No third-party SDK that collects data.
- No accounts, so nothing to link across devices or apps.
- No selling or sharing of your data — we do not hold it, so there is nothing to sell.
6. Children
Iqro Ummah is a family learning app and is suitable for children learning to read the Qur’an. It shows no ads and collects no personal data from anyone — adult or child. A parent can hand the app to a child knowing nothing about them is gathered or shared.
7. Your control over your data
- See it — notes, progress, and settings are all visible in the app.
- Correct it — edit or delete any note, change any setting, at any time.
- Delete it — uninstalling the app removes its data from your device. If your device’s own Android backup is enabled, a copy of app data may exist in your Google account backup, under your control — we never receive it.
Because Iqro Ummah has no accounts and holds nothing on a server, there is no account for us to delete and no data of yours for us to hand over or erase on request.
8. Security
Your notes and settings live in app-private storage that other apps cannot read. The app requests no permissions beyond those listed above.
9. Content sources
The Qur’anic text (Mushaf Utsmani), the Indonesian translation by Kemenag RI, and the transliteration are bundled from the open quran-json dataset (CC BY-SA 4.0). These are static content files — displaying them involves no network request and no data about you.
10. Changes to this policy
If this policy changes we will update this page and change the date at the top. Material changes will be noted in the app’s release notes on Google Play.
