Bayyin App  •  Last updated: June 2026

Introduction

Bayyin respects your privacy. This policy explains what data the app accesses and how it is used.

Data We Access

• Location: Used solely to calculate accurate prayer times for your city. It is never stored or sent to any external server beyond the prayer time calculation.
• Microphone / Voice Recording: When using the verse recognition feature, a short audio clip is sent to OpenAI Whisper for speech-to-text transcription and Quran verse matching. The audio file is immediately deleted from our servers after processing.
• Anis messages: When using the Anis spiritual companion feature, your text messages are sent to OpenAI GPT to retrieve relevant Quran verses. Messages are not stored on our servers. Your conversation history is stored locally on your device only.

What We Do Not Collect

• No personal information (name, email, phone number).
• No data is sold to any third party.
• No third-party analytics or tracking SDKs.

Notifications

The app uses locally scheduled notifications on your device for prayer time and athkar reminders. These do not pass through any external server.

Third-Party Services

The app communicates with the following services to provide its core features:

• Whisper API (OpenAI): For audio analysis and verse identification.
• OpenAI GPT: For the Anis Quran companion feature.
• Public Quran APIs: For verse text, tafsir, and translations.
• Photon (Komoot): For city search used in prayer time calculation.

These services do not retain your personal data in the context of their use within the app.
