Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 11, 2026
Scroll the Quran (“the app”), by NightSafe Software (“we”, “us”), is designed to collect as little as possible. There are no accounts, no ads and no tracking. We use anonymous usage statistics and crash reports to improve the app (see below). We don't ask for your name, email address, contacts, photos or location.
What stays on your device
- Your settings (display, text size, appearance, reminder time, reciter), your reading position, the ayahs you save, and your reading progress (ayahs read today and your day streak).
- The Clear Quran® translation, downloaded once so the app works offline (about 1 MB).
- Recitation audio you've listened to or downloaded, so it plays offline. It isn't included in iCloud backups, and you can delete it in Settings › Offline Listening.
- Today's ayah for the widget and the daily reminder (if you turn it on), scheduled on your device.
This information stays on your device (apart from the anonymous statistics described below). Deleting the app deletes it.
What the app sends
To show The Clear Quran® translation, the app asks our server (Google Firebase Cloud Functions) for a page of verses by surah and page number. Each request includes an attestation from Apple's App Attest service (through Firebase App Check) that proves it comes from the genuine app; it doesn't identify you. Our translation server doesn't receive or store any personal information or identifier. Like any internet service, Google's infrastructure briefly processes your device's IP address to deliver the response, under the Google Privacy Policy.
When you tap Listen, or download recitations for offline listening, the app gets the audio files directly from EveryAyah.com. The request contains only which recitation file to play; like any website, EveryAyah's server sees your device's IP address to deliver the audio. We don't receive any information about what you listen to.
Usage statistics and crash reports
To learn which features are used and to fix crashes, the app uses Google Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics. They receive:
- Which features you use, such as switching between Discover and In Order, listening, saving or sharing a verse (identified only by its reference, like 2:255), opening a Science entry, turning the reminder on or off, how many ayahs you read in a day and your day streak, and which screens you open.
- Crash reports and basic diagnostics (device model, iOS version, app version, what the app was doing when it crashed).
- Whether a tip was completed and its amount (from Apple; never your payment details or Apple ID).
- Your approximate region (country or city), which Google derives from your IP address without storing the address. The app never uses your device's location services.
- A random identifier Firebase creates for this installation of the app, so repeat visits can be counted. It resets if you delete the app.
This data isn't linked to your identity, isn't combined with data from other companies, and isn't used for advertising or tracking. The app doesn't use Apple's advertising identifier or the vendor identifier. Translation text and anything you type never leave your device. Google processes this data under the Firebase privacy and security terms; Analytics data is kept for at most 14 months.
Tips
Optional tips are processed entirely by Apple. We don't receive your payment details or Apple ID. See the Apple Privacy Policy.
Children
The app is suitable for all ages. It doesn't collect personal information from anyone, including children; the anonymous usage statistics above aren't linked to anyone's identity.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the date above.
