In short: mozQibla does not collect, store, or share any personal data. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics, and no tracking of any kind. Everything the app does — Qibla direction, prayer times, AR view — is computed on your device.
mozQibla ("the app") is an Android application that shows the direction of the Qibla, daily prayer times, and an optional augmented-reality compass. This policy explains what information the app uses and why.
None. The app has no user accounts, no sign-in, no advertising, no analytics or crash-reporting SDKs, and no servers of our own. We never receive, store, sell, or share any information about you.
| Information | Purpose | Where it goes |
|---|---|---|
| Location (GPS or manual entry) | Calculate the Qibla bearing, distance to the Kaaba, and daily prayer times. | Processed entirely on your device. Never transmitted to us. |
| City name lookup | Optionally display your city name (e.g. "Chicago, IL") instead of raw coordinates. | Your coordinates are sent to your device's built-in geocoding service (provided by Google Play services) for this one lookup. We never see them. |
| Camera (AR mode only) | Render the augmented-reality compass over a live camera view, powered by Google ARCore. | Frames are processed in real time on your device. The app never records, stores, or uploads camera imagery. |
| Compass & motion sensors | Point the Qibla needle and track device orientation. | On-device only. |
| Settings (calculation method, notification preferences, etc.) | Remember your preferences. | Stored locally on your device; deleted when you uninstall the app. |
The app contains no third-party advertising or analytics SDKs. Two device-level Google services are involved in specific features: Google Play services (location and city-name geocoding) and Google ARCore (AR mode). These are governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
The app is not directed at children and, as described above, collects no data from anyone.
If the app's behavior ever changes in a way that affects privacy, this page will be updated and the effective date revised before the change ships.
