Deen Lock: Quran Reader

"Indeed, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest." — Surah Ar-Rad 13:28

Let’s be honest, it’s really easy to get lost in notifications and forget to make time for the Quran. I built Deen First to help change that. Instead of mindlessly opening Instagram, TikTok, or a game, this app makes you pause. You set a specific schedule, and during that window, you have to read a bit of the Quran before those distracting apps unlock. It’s a simple way to build a real habit and focus on your faith, rather than just scrolling.

How it works:

Pick your apps: Choose what you want to block (like social media or games).

Set your schedule: You decide exactly when the blocking happens. It doesn't just lock you out 24/7—you are in complete control of the timing.

Set your goal: Pick a daily reading goal that works for you.

Pause and read: During your scheduled times, trying to open a blocked app will bring up Deen First instead. Read your Quran goal, and your apps unlock.

What’s inside:

App Blocking: Stop the scroll and create space for what matters.

Clean Reader: A simple, distraction-free interface for reading.

Streak Tracking: Watch your consistency grow day by day.

Flexible Scheduling: Build a routine that actually fits your lifestyle.

Deen First isn't just a productivity timer. It's a way to turn mindless screen time into Quran time, helping you stay grounded in the middle of a busy digital life.

--- IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE FOR APP BLOCKING ---
To make the app blocking feature work, Deen First requires the use of the Android AccessibilityService API.

Why we need it: This permission allows the app to detect when you are opening one of the specific apps you have chosen to restrict during your scheduled times, so it can display the Quran reading screen instead.

Privacy first: This API is used strictly for the app-blocking feature. Deen First has a strict zero-data policy: absolutely no personal data, usage data, or screen content is collected, stored, or transmitted externally.
