What is Salah Buddy?
An iPhone and iPad app for parents and children to use together. Its 52 short lessons cover wudu, every prayer position, the 5 daily prayers, Al-Fatiha, 18 short surahs and Ayat al-Kursi, taught one verse at a time.
How does a lesson work?
Open today's lesson and read the one-minute notes for you. Hand the phone to your child for the lesson and stay beside them. When they hand it back, tap how it went. Then practice at a real prayer the same day.
What is free, and what does a plan cost?
The first 3 lessons are free. After that you choose a plan: one child for $4.99 a week or $59.99 a year, or the whole family for $6.99 a week or $79.99 a year. A yearly plan starts with a free week. A weekly plan has no free week. These are US prices. The App Store shows the price in your country.
A weekly plan is charged to your Apple ID when you buy it. A yearly plan is charged when the free week ends. The plan renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad, tap your name, then Subscriptions, then Salah Buddy. Cancel at least 24 hours before the free week or the current period ends. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
I have a new phone. How do I get my plan back?
Sign in with the same Apple ID, open the subscription screen in the app and tap Restore. Your plan comes back. Lesson progress does not move with it, because progress is saved only on the device.
Can I get a refund?
Apple handles all payments and refunds. Ask at reportaproblem.apple.com, signed in with your Apple ID.
How does the voice work?
Nothing plays by itself. Your child taps a word, a title or a step to hear it read aloud. Quran verses are shown with the Arabic, the transliteration and the meaning, and have no audio yet.
If you hear nothing, turn up the volume and check that the voice is turned on in the grown-up settings.
How do I reach the settings?
Settings sit behind a grown-up question, a quick math question. Answer it to manage kids, change settings and see your plan.
Can I add more than one child?
Yes. Each child gets their own profile and progress. A one-child plan covers one child. The Family plan covers every child in your home.
Does my child's progress sync between devices?
Not yet. Progress is saved only on the device, which keeps your family's information private. Deleting the app deletes the progress.
Privacy
No accounts, no ads and no tracking. The app collects nothing about your child, and names and progress stay on your device. Subscriptions are bought through Apple, and a service called RevenueCat checks that a plan is active, under a random ID that is not linked to you or your child. Read our privacy policy.
