Terms of Use

Effective: 13 November 2026 (3 Jumada al-Akhirah 1448 AH)

1. Introduction

These terms govern the use of the Awwab app and subscriptions to it. Installing or using the App constitutes acceptance of these terms and of the Privacy Policy. A User who does not accept them must stop using the App.

2. Definitions

Unless the context requires otherwise, the following terms have the meanings given below wherever they appear in these terms:

  1. a.The App: the Awwab app for smart devices.
  2. b.The Developer: [developer name], owner of the App.
  3. c.The User: anyone who uses the App.
  4. d.The Store: the App Store or Google Play, as the case may be.
  5. e.Subscription: the paid subscription that unlocks all of the App's features.
  6. f.Free Trial: a period during which the Subscription is available without charge before billing begins.

3. Nature of the service

The App is a tool that helps the User keep their prayers on time. It is not a source of religious rulings or fatwas, and keeping the prayers remains the User's responsibility.

The App calculates prayer times, provides alarms that are stopped by photographing the sink or by the alternatives in Section 9, asks whether the prayer was performed, and locks apps at prayer time. Prayer times are available without a subscription; the other features require an active Subscription.

4. Subscription and fees

  1. a.Subscription plans, their prices and durations are shown in the App and the Store before purchase, and the price shown at the time of purchase applies.
  2. b.Purchases and billing are handled by the Store under its terms, and fees are charged to the account linked to the Store.
  3. c.The Developer may offer discounted prices, subject to the terms shown with the offer.
  4. d.The Developer may change prices. A change applies to an existing subscription only as the Store provides, including notice to the subscriber.

5. Free trial

A 3-day Free Trial is offered on the yearly and monthly plans, once per User. When it ends it converts into a paid Subscription and the fee is charged, unless cancelled before it ends as the Store requires. The User is reminded by a notification one day before it ends, if notifications are allowed.

6. Automatic renewal and cancellation

  1. a.The Subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period at the current price, unless cancelled before the renewal date as the Store requires; the App Store requires at least 24 hours before.
  2. b.The Subscription is cancelled in the subscription settings of the App Store or Google Play, which can be reached from the subscription row in the App's settings. Deleting the App does not cancel it, and it stays active until the end of the paid period.

7. Refunds

Refund requests are subject to the policy of the Store through which the purchase was made, and the Developer cannot issue refunds directly, without prejudice to consumer rights under the law.

8. Prayer times and alarms

  1. a.Prayer times are calculated using recognised calculation methods for the User's location or city, including the Umm al-Qura calendar, and may differ by a few minutes from the adhan at the User's mosque; the local adhan prevails.
  2. b.Alarms and notifications depend on the Device's settings and permissions, its battery and its operating system. The Developer does not guarantee they will work in every case and, to the extent the law permits, is not liable for any harm arising from their failure.

9. Photo verification and alternatives

Automatic verification of the sink photo may make mistakes, and the App always offers two alternatives for stopping an alarm: dhikr, and the "I'm not home" option. The App does not verify the truthfulness of what the User reports; that is left to the User's own honesty.

10. App lock

The app lock is optional and the User chooses which apps it covers. It can be unlocked in an emergency. Notifications from locked apps may be delayed while the lock is on, and the Developer is not liable for the consequences.

11. User obligations

The User agrees:

  1. a.to use the App for its intended purpose and in accordance with applicable law;
  2. b.not to copy, modify or reverse-engineer the App, or circumvent the subscription system;
  3. c.not to use the App in a way that harms others or the App.

12. Intellectual property

The App, its design, text and logo belong to the Developer and may not be used without the Developer's written permission. Rights in the adhan recordings and any third-party content belong to their owners.

13. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

  1. a.The App is provided "as is". The Developer gives no express or implied warranty that it is free of errors or will work without interruption.
  2. b.To the extent the law permits, the Developer is not liable for any indirect harm arising from using or being unable to use the App, and the Developer's liability shall in no case exceed the subscription fees paid in the twelve months before the claim.

14. Apple's licence agreement

When the App is downloaded from the App Store, Apple's Standard End User License Agreement applies alongside these terms and governs the User's relationship with Apple: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

15. Governing law and jurisdiction

These terms are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the courts of the Kingdom have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.

16. Changes to these terms

The Developer may amend these terms. The User is notified of material changes within the App, changes apply from their publication unless stated otherwise, and continuing to use the App constitutes acceptance of them.

17. Language

These terms were written in Arabic. If this translation differs from the Arabic text, the Arabic text prevails.
