Last updated: 2 September 2026

This policy applies to the Quran Flip Android app (package name com.uziapps.quranflip), published by Uzi Apps and distributed through Google Play.

1. In Short

Quran Flip does not collect your personal information. It has no accounts, no sign-in, no advertising and no third-party tracking. Your bookmarks, settings and reading statistics are stored only in the app's own private storage on your device, are excluded from cloud backups, and are removed when you clear the app's storage or uninstall the app.

From version 1.1 onwards, the app sends us a small anonymous summary after a reading session — how long it lasted and how many pages were read. It carries no name and no account, and nothing in it identifies you as a person.

From version 1.2 onwards it also includes a random number the app generates for itself, so that sessions from the same device can be counted together and we can tell how many people use the app rather than only how many times it is opened. You can switch this off at any time in Display Settings, and delete everything sent from your device with one button. It is off by default in the UK and Europe. Whatever is sent is deleted automatically after 90 days. Section 2 sets out exactly what is sent.

2. What We Collect, and What We Do Not

From version 1.1 onwards, when you finish reading and leave the app, Quran Flip prepares a short anonymous summary of that session. It is sent to our own server at uziapps.com the next time you open the app. It contains only:

  • How long you were actively reading, in seconds.
  • How many pages you read, and the first and last page numbers of that session.
  • The time the session started, and whether you were holding the phone upright or sideways.
  • Which version of the app you are using.
  • Roughly how long ago the app was first opened on that device, and roughly how many sessions it has had — both as broad ranges such as “4 to 7 days”, never exact figures.
  • A random reference number generated fresh for that one session and then discarded, so a summary that is sent twice is not counted twice.
  • From version 1.2, a second random number that stays on your device. It is created by the app, is not your advertising ID and is not any identifier your phone uses elsewhere. It lets us count sessions from the same device together. It is not linked to your name, your account or anything you have typed, because we hold none of those.

Our server is told the name of your device's time zone, such as Asia/Karachi, and turns that into a country. Nothing more precise is kept. We do not store your IP address.

Everything we receive is deleted automatically after 90 days.

You can turn all of this off. Open Display Settings and switch off “Anonymous usage statistics”. Nothing further is sent, and anything waiting to be sent is discarded. In the UK and Europe it is off unless you switch it on.

We still do not collect any of the following: your name, email address, precise location, contacts, photos, or any other personal data. We do not collect device identifiers, advertising identifiers, your device model, or anything you have typed — including the names you give your bookmarks. There are no user accounts, no sign-in and no registration.

Because there is no identifier of any kind, we cannot tell how many people use the app, cannot recognise anyone returning, and cannot build a profile of any individual. We see totals and patterns, and nothing else.

3. What the App Stores on Your Device

So the app can remember where you were and how you like it set up, the following is saved in the app's private storage on your own device:

  • The page you last read, and your bookmarks — each holding a name you chose, a page number and the surah on that page.
  • Your display preferences — page size, page-turn style, display mode, and whether on-screen messages are shown.
  • Your reading statistics — total reading time, which pages you have read, number of sessions, your daily goal, reading streaks, activity by date, progress through each surah, time of day you read, seconds spent on individual pages, and any achievements earned.

The detail listed above stays on your device. Your bookmarks, the names you chose for them, your goals, streaks and achievements are never transmitted — only the short session summary described in section 2 is sent, and the app has no way of knowing who you are.

4. Device Motion

To count reading time accurately, the app needs to tell the difference between a page you are actually reading and a page left open on a table. It briefly samples the device's motion sensor at intervals to check whether the device is being held. This reading is used in the moment and immediately discarded. Motion data is never stored, never recorded and never transmitted. If your device has no motion sensor, the app simply relies on your taps and page turns instead.

5. Permissions the App Requests

  • Internet — required by Android for the app's own screens to load from files bundled inside the app, and used to send the anonymous session summary described in section 2. The Quran itself is stored inside the app, so Quran Flip works fully offline; if there is no connection, the summary simply waits, and is discarded if it cannot be sent.
  • Vibration — brief haptic feedback when you press and hold a page.
  • Storage (Android 9 and older only) — used solely when you choose to export your bookmarks to a file. Newer Android versions do not require this permission and the app does not request it there.

The app does not request access to your location, camera, microphone, contacts, photos or files.

6. Exporting, Importing and Sharing

These actions only ever happen when you start them:

  • Export writes your bookmarks to a file on your device, normally in your Downloads or Documents folder. That file is saved to your phone's own storage, is not affected by backup settings, and stays there even if you uninstall the app. It leaves your device only if you move or send it yourself.
  • Import reads a bookmarks file that you pick using Android's own file chooser. The app cannot see any other file.
  • Share passes text to Android's share menu. What happens next is handled by whichever app you choose, under that app's own privacy policy — not this one.

7. Backups and Moving to a New Phone

Quran Flip is configured so that its data is never included in cloud backups. Your bookmarks, settings and reading statistics are not uploaded to Google Drive or to any other online backup service, even if backup is switched on for your device.

On Android 12 and later, your data can still be copied directly from your old phone to your new one during device setup, using Android's device-to-device transfer. That copy passes between the two phones and does not go through any server. On Android 11 and earlier the operating system does not allow the two to be separated, so this app's data is excluded from both.

Because nothing is backed up online, please note that if you lose your phone or reset it without transferring to a new one, your bookmarks and reading statistics cannot be recovered. To keep your own copy, use Export on the bookmarks screen. It writes a small file to your Downloads or Documents folder that you can store or move wherever you like, and Import restores it on any device.

8. Advertising and Analytics

Quran Flip contains no advertising and no advertising identifiers. It uses no third-party analytics service, no measurement service and no third-party software development kits of any kind — nothing in the app reports to Google Analytics, Firebase, Facebook or anyone else.

The session summary described in section 2 goes only to our own server, is never shared or sold, and is used solely to understand how the app is used so it can be improved. The random number that identifies the device is used to count devices and to see whether people come back; it is never used to build a profile of you, is never combined with anything else, and cannot be, because we hold nothing else about you.

9. Children's Privacy

Quran Flip is suitable for all ages and is used by children learning to read the Quran. The app collects no personal information from anyone, and so collects none from children either. The session summary described in section 2 contains no name, no contact details and nothing typed by the reader, so it is the same whoever is reading, and it can be switched off. There is no mechanism in the app by which a child — or anyone else — could provide personal information to us, and no part of the app asks for any.

10. Your Control Over Your Data

Everything the app saves is on your device and under your control:

  • Bookmarks can be deleted individually from the bookmarks screen.
  • Reading statistics can be cleared or reset from the statistics screen.
  • Clearing the app's storage in Android settings, or uninstalling the app, removes everything stored inside the app, including your bookmarks.
  • Any bookmark file you exported beforehand stays in your Downloads or Documents folder and is not affected.

Everything personal stays with you. For the session summaries described in section 2, you have direct control without needing to ask us for anything:

  • Stop it. Display Settings → switch off “Anonymous usage statistics”. In the UK and Europe it is off unless you switch it on.
  • Delete it. Display Settings → “Delete my statistics”. Every summary sent from your device is removed from our server, and your device starts again with a new random number. This is immediate and needs no request to us.
  • Or do nothing. Everything we receive is deleted automatically after 90 days.

We hold no name, email address or account for you, so there is nothing else for us to find, correct or delete. If you would rather send nothing at all, the app also works entirely offline — unsent summaries are discarded.
