About

A peaceful Islamic companion, not another habit app

🌿

What it is

A free Progressive Web App built for Muslims who want to scroll less and remember Allah more. Runs on your device — no account, no ads, no third-party trackers.

🧠

How it's different

Reminders weighted by time of day, Hijri date, your mood, prayer streak, and your self-reported struggles. Less alarm clock, more wise friend.

🛡️

Privacy first

No personal data, no cookies, no third-party trackers. Only anonymous aggregate analytics (page views, install rate) for app improvement. Your tasks, prayers and journal live only in your browser.

📲

Installs like a real app

Add to home screen from Chrome or Safari. Get an Android-native experience — splash screen, full-screen, OS notifications over any other app.

Features that make Zikr Reminder different

  • 18+ reminder categories — Zikr, Salah, Quran ayahs, Hadith of the day, Sadaqah, Zakat, Family, Kindness, Local economy, Environment, Knowledge, Health, Productivity, Peace, Goals, Nafl, Focus.
  • Gradual Nafl ladder — once your prayer streak reaches 3 days, the app suggests 2 rakat Nafl-e-Hajat with Dhuhr. At 7 days, Nafl-e-Shukr after Maghrib. At 14, Nafl-e-Tawbah after Isha. At 21, an introduction to Tahajjud. You build the habit gradually, not all at once.
  • Tasbih counter with session reset and a separate all-time total that feeds your XP, badges and growth insights.
  • Prayer tracker for Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha, with full-day streak tracking and milestone celebrations at 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 and 100-day streaks.
  • 30+ achievement badges covering prayer streaks, zikr counts, kindness, sadaqah, family ties, knowledge seeking, perfect days and more.
  • Focus Mode — a full-screen "stop scrolling" intervention with a breathing animation and an affirmation that lasts 60 seconds.
  • Mood logging and a private journal, both of which influence which reminders the app sends you next.
  • Week-over-week growth insights — see your consistency, perfect days, tasks completed and prayer score compared to last week, with a motivational headline that adapts to the delta.
  • OS-level notifications that appear over any other app on your phone once you install the PWA — Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp, all of them — via the Notification Triggers API and Periodic Background Sync.
  • Dynamic Island-style in-app pill — a beautiful animated ball that opens into a notification bar when you're using the app, with three-stage spring choreography.
  • Customisable AM/PM quiet hours and three intensity levels (Light, Medium, Strong) so you control the cadence.
  • Works offline — full service worker caching, all data stored locally, export-anytime JSON.

How it works

  1. Open zikrbreak.com in Chrome on Android (or Safari on iOS) and tap "Start Your Journey".
  2. Tell us what you struggle with — pick from scrolling addiction, missed prayers, procrastination, overthinking, anxiety, lack of motivation, wasted time, indiscipline. The app's intelligence layer uses these to weight your reminders.
  3. Choose reminder intensity — Light (~4 hours), Medium (~90 minutes) or Strong (~35 minutes), with ±20% randomisation so they don't feel robotic.
  4. Grant notification permission when prompted. From now on, the app schedules a batch of upcoming notifications via your phone's OS so they fire even with the app closed.
  5. Tap "Install App" when the install banner appears. The app installs to your home screen with a splash screen and full-screen experience — like a native app.
  6. Use it daily. Mark your five prayers, tap the tasbih counter, complete your checklist. Your streaks grow, badges unlock, and the Coach module adapts the reminder mix based on what you do and when you do it.
🕋 LIVE — Hajj 2026 season

Hajj 2026 — your companion through the season

The most virtuous 10 days of the year are upon us. From 27 Dhul-Qadah → 13 Dhul-Hijjah 1447 AH (approximately May 27 → June 9, 2026), Zikr Reminder automatically detects the season and switches its reminders, du'as and Quran prompts to match — for pilgrims and non-pilgrims alike.

🌄
9 Dhul-Hijjah · Jun 5, 2026

Day of Arafah

The greatest day of the year. The Prophet ﷺ said fasting on Arafah expiates the sins of the previous year and the one to come (Sahih Muslim).

🐑
10 Dhul-Hijjah · Jun 6, 2026

Eid al-Adha

The Festival of Sacrifice. Eid prayer, takbeer, sacrifice (Qurbani), feeding the poor, and three days of Tashreeq follow.

📿
First 10 of Dhul-Hijjah

The Takbeer

"Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illa Allah, wa Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar wa lillah il-hamd." The app reminds you to recite throughout the day.

🌙
1–9 Dhul-Hijjah

Voluntary Fasting

Fasting any of these 9 days carries enormous reward. The 9th (Arafah) for non-pilgrims is the most beloved.

How Zikr Reminder helps during Hajj 2026

  • Automatic season detection — the app reads the Hijri calendar and switches to Hajj-specific reminders without you doing anything.
  • Takbeer reminders throughout the day so you never miss the recommended dhikr of the season.
  • Arafah fasting reminder with the prophetic hadith on its reward.
  • Eid al-Adha prep checklist: Zakat al-Fitr (paid earlier — by Eid al-Fitr), Qurbani arrangement, Eid ghusl, salah on time, feeding the poor.
  • Du'as for the pilgrim (talbiyah, du'a at Arafah) accessible from the Motivation page even if you're not on Hajj — make du'a for those who are.
  • Sadaqah prompts increase frequency during the first 10 — every deed multiplies in this season.
  • Quran verses from Surah Al-Hajj and Surah Ibrahim surface in the daily rotation.

Quick answers

What does Zikr Reminder do in one sentence?

It sends gentle, intelligently-timed Islamic reminders (Salah, Zikr, Quran, Sadaqah, Kindness) to your Android phone — over any other app — so you scroll less and remember Allah more.

Is it really free, with no signup?

Yes. Zero cost, zero account, zero third-party trackers, zero personal-data collection. Only anonymous aggregate analytics (no cookies, no PII) for app improvement.

Does it work offline?

Fully. Install the PWA once, and every page, animation, hadith, du'a, and counter works without internet. Notifications still fire from your device's clock.

Will my data survive a phone change?

Use Profile → Download backup to save a JSON file. Open Zikr Reminder on the new phone, choose Restore from backup, and your streaks, tasks, journal and badges all return.

Does it know when it's Ramadan or Hajj?

Yes. The app uses the Hijri calendar to detect Ramadan (with mercy/forgiveness/refuge phases), the first 10 days of Dhul-Hijjah, Day of Arafah, both Eids, Muharram, Ashura, Sha'ban and Rajab — and adjusts its messages accordingly.

What makes a reminder "intelligent"?

Each reminder is weighted by time of day (Fajr-hour vs late night), day of the week (Jumu'ah amplifies Quran reminders), your current mood (low → Quran for peace; great → sadaqah), your self-reported struggles, your prayer streak, and the Hijri date — so what arrives next is what you actually need next.

For you if…

Who is Zikr Reminder for?

📱

You scroll too much

An hour disappears every evening in reels. Anti-scrolling reminders + Focus Mode interrupt the loop gently.

🎓

Building discipline

Students and young professionals trying to anchor prayer, Quran and meaningful work without burning out.

🌊

Anxious or low

When you log a low mood, the app surfaces peace + Quran + Hasbunallahu wa ni'mal wakeel.

🕋

Preparing for a season

Ramadan, Hajj, Eid — the app auto-detects and shifts its tone. Gentle, never shaming.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Zikr Reminder really free?

Yes. No ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no signup. The only telemetry is anonymous aggregate analytics via Vercel (page views, install rate, page-load speed) — no cookies, no IP tracking, no personal identifiers. Your tasks, prayers, journal and mood logs never leave your device.

Will I get reminders even when the app is closed?

Yes, once you install the PWA and grant notification permission. The app schedules a batch of upcoming notifications via the browser's Notification Triggers API and Periodic Background Sync, so they fire from your phone's OS even with the app fully closed — appearing over whichever other app you're using.

How do I install it on Android?

Open zikrbreak.com in Chrome. After a few seconds of engagement you'll see an "Install App" prompt — tap it. Or use the browser menu → "Install app" / "Add to Home Screen".

How do I install it on iPhone?

Open zikrbreak.com in Safari, tap the Share button (the square with the up arrow), then "Add to Home Screen". iOS PWA notification support is more limited than Android, but in-app reminders work identically.

What data does Zikr Reminder collect?

Your personal data — tasks, prayers, streaks, mood, journal, zikr counts — stays only on your device. Nothing personal is ever sent anywhere. The only telemetry is anonymous aggregate analytics via Vercel: total page views, PWA install events, and Web Vitals (page-load speed). These contain no cookies, no IP address storage, no personal identifiers, no fingerprinting. You can export your private state any time from Profile → Backup & Restore.

What does Vercel Analytics collect about me?

Vercel Analytics is privacy-by-design (GDPR-compliant). It records anonymous aggregate metrics — which pages get visited, how many times reminders fire by category, how many people install the PWA — without ever storing who you are. No cookies are set, no cross-site tracking happens, and we cannot identify any individual user. We use this only to know which features people use so we can improve them.

How is the Nafl ladder structured?

Day 3 of all-5-prayers streak: 2 rakat Nafl-e-Hajat with Dhuhr. Day 7: 2 rakat Nafl-e-Shukr after Maghrib. Day 14: 2 rakat Nafl-e-Tawbah after Isha. Day 21: an intro to Tahajjud. Each rung unlocks an Adopter badge once you mark it performed.

Can I change reminder frequency?

Yes — Profile → Reminder intensity → Light (every 4h), Medium (every 90 min) or Strong (every 35 min), with ±20% jitter. Plus custom AM/PM quiet hours and toggleable categories.

Why "Zikr Break"?

Because most of us need a break from the algorithm and a break for remembering Allah. The app is named after that pause.
