Qibla Finder (“QiblaNow,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you use the Qibla Finder (QiblaNow) mobile application. The same policy is available inside the app in all supported languages (Settings › Privacy Policy).

1. Information We Process

Location and Compass Data

Qibla Finder uses your current location and device compass data to calculate the Qibla direction and prayer times. Location is also used to show nearby mosques on the map.

Qibla and prayer time calculations happen on your device. We do not upload your exact coordinates or compass readings, and they are never sent to our analytics or advertising partners.

You can manage or withdraw location permission at any time from iPhone Settings. Without location permission, the Qibla direction, prayer times and nearby mosque features may not work correctly.

App Data and Preferences

We store app data locally on your device, including:

• Selected language and text size
• Onboarding status
• Prayer settings (calculation method, reminders) and your prayer log
• Compass design
• Premium access state

Qibla Finder does not create user accounts or upload these preferences to our servers.

Nearby Mosques and Maps

The nearby mosque feature uses Apple MapKit and Apple Maps. When you use it, your approximate area is sent to Apple to find results and is processed under Apple’s privacy policy.

Usage Statistics and Crash Reports

We use these service providers to understand app usage and fix problems:

• Firebase (Google Analytics, Crashlytics, Remote Config): app usage events, crash and performance diagnostics, technical device information and an approximate region derived from the IP address.
