  1. The surface

    Taqwa — prayer & qada tracker

    Prayer times, missed-prayer planning, Quran with a khatm plan, qibla, duas. Free, no ads, 11 languages with RTL. Released 2026 on Google Play; React, TypeScript, Capacitor, native Android bridges.

  2. Underneath · notifications

    Alerts that survive the OS

    Prayer times are computed 14 days ahead, schedules are deduplicated and the OS queue is verified on every launch. Handles revoked exact-alarm permission and doze on Android. Home-screen widget and live prayer-window notifications via Java bridges Capacitor doesn't provide.

  3. Underneath · data

    Offline first, account optional

    Everything works with no account and no connection: times, tracking, Quran text, language packs. Sign in and Firebase backs it up; don't, and it never leaves the device.

  4. Underneath · release

    A pipeline before a feature

    603 automated checks, Playwright E2E and visual tests, Firebase emulator security-rule tests, and a 270 KB gzipped startup budget the build fails on. One-tap in-app bug reporting so users tell me before the store does.
