Daily hifz plan
Sabaq, sabqi and manzil generated from your goal, your pace and how much time you have — in plain language, with the classical terms alongside.
Coming soon to iOS & Android
Memorize the Qur'an — and actually keep it.
HifzMate is a Qur'an memorization app that plans your day the way a hifz teacher would: new memorization (sabaq), recent review (sabqi) and long-range revision (manzil) — then uses spaced repetition and AI recitation checking so nothing you memorized quietly slips away.

Al-Qamar 54:17وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍ
"And We have certainly made the Qur'ān easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?"
The real problem
Memorizing is hard. Retaining is harder.
Most people who start hifz alone stall for the same reasons: no structured plan for the day, no honest way to know whether a page is still solid, and no system that tells them which of the 604 pages is slipping. HifzMate is built around those three gaps — not around another reader app.
No plan, no progress
Without a curriculum you re-read favourites and neglect the rest. HifzMate builds today's task list for you every morning.
Revision debt piles up
Every new page adds review load. A spaced-repetition engine decides what is due, so old juz never fall off the map.
No one to listen
Studying alone means mistakes get memorized too. Record a passage and get word-level feedback on what you missed.
What's inside
Everything a solo hifz journey needs
One app for reading, memorizing, revising and checking yourself — designed for beginners starting with Juz 30 and for huffaz maintaining all 604 pages.
Full 604-page mushaf
Uthmani and IndoPak scripts, verified page by page, with translation, word-by-word meaning and colour-coded tajweed you can toggle on or off.
Hidden-verse mode
Fade the text away line by line, recall from memory, then reveal to check. The core drill of every hifz class, on your phone.
AI recitation check
Record a passage; speech recognition aligns what you said with the verified text and marks each word correct, wrong or skipped — with a "that was right, I object" correction you can tap.
Retention heat map
All 604 pages on one screen. Green means alive, amber means fading, red means asleep. You see your weak spots instead of guessing.
Mutashabihat compare
Similar verses side by side with the differences highlighted — the single biggest cause of mix-ups for anyone who has memorized more than a few juz.
Listen & repeat
Twelve reciters with word-synced audio, adjustable A–B loops and repeat counts for the listen-and-repeat (talqin) method.
Progress & hifz calculator
Streaks, trends, weak-point reports and an honest finish-date estimate based on the pace you are actually keeping — not the one you hoped for.
Adaptive, and explainable
Chunk size, repetition count and scheduling adjust to your measured behaviour — and every suggestion shows why, with an override button.
Where it fits
How HifzMate compares to the alternatives
There are excellent Qur'an apps already — they just solve different problems. Most people memorizing alone end up stitching together a reader app, a recitation checker and a habit tracker, and still have no answer to "which of my pages is slipping?". Here is what each kind of tool actually does for a hifz journey.

To be clear: a qualified teacher is still the gold standard, and this table says so — that column is the one HifzMate is modelled on. The app is what you use when a teacher isn't available, which for most people is most days. And if you already love your reader app, keep it: HifzMate is the layer that decides what to read today and tells you when you are quietly losing a page.
How it works
Open the app, do today's task, close the app
-
Tell it where you are
Mark what you have already memorized on an interactive map, pick your goal and daily time. A short trial session calibrates your chunk size and method.
-
Do today's tasks
New memorization first, then recent review, then long-range revision. Each task walks you through read → memorize → check → complete.
-
Let the engine remember for you
Every check feeds the scheduler. Pages you struggle with come back sooner; solid pages stretch out. Tomorrow's plan is ready without you thinking about it.
Revision engine
See your whole Qur'an at a glance
HifzMate uses FSRS — a modern spaced-repetition algorithm — fed by your recitation errors, your "this one is hard" flags, how long the page took and your review history. The result is a personal forgetting curve per page, drawn as a heat map of the entire mushaf.
Alive Fading Asleep Not memorized yet
Due today
A single list of what actually needs revision today, ordered by risk of forgetting.
Comeback plans
Been away for months? A graduated recovery plan rebuilds what you had instead of restarting from zero.
Works offline
Reading, memorizing and revising all work without a connection. Your plan lives on your device.
Honest AI
What the AI does — and what it doesn't
Recitation feedback is the easiest thing in this category to exaggerate. Here is exactly what HifzMate claims, so you can judge it before you install it.
It does
- Transcribe your recording and align it word by word against the verified text.
- Mark each word correct, wrong or skipped, and highlight words as your recording plays back.
- Show a large, readable correction card — never a tiny toast you can't act on.
- Let you dispute a wrong flag, because false positives are the plague of this category.
- Tolerate slow, careful recitation — being slow is not an error, and older or younger voices are not penalised.
- Offer an optional per-verse tajweed check (phoneme and sifat level) as a separate, opt-in step.
It doesn't
- Scan a whole page for tajweed in one automated pass. Tajweed review is one verse at a time, on request.
- Invent a result. If a recording can't be evaluated, you get an error — never a fabricated score.
- Replace a qualified teacher. It catches slips; it does not grant an ijazah.
- Run cloud recitation checking on child profiles. That layer is off for under-13 accounts.
- Generate or edit a single letter of the Qur'anic text. Text comes only from verified sources.
Built for ages 10 to 70
One app that adapts, instead of a separate "kids edition"
Accessible from the first screen
Touch targets of at least 48px, three or more text-size steps up to extra-large, high-contrast and dark themes, and plain-language wording by default with classical terminology kept alongside.
Serious about children's data
Onboarding forks into "for myself" or "for my child". Under 13 runs as a parent-managed profile, 13–17 needs parental consent with an optional parent view, and social or ranking features stay off for minors.
Your language, the Qur'an's script
Interface in English, Turkish and French, following your device language, switchable any time. The Qur'anic text always stays in Arabic, right-to-left, exactly as transmitted.
Fair by design
A free tier that is genuinely usable, premium for the heavy AI features, and optional rewarded video if you'd rather earn checks than pay. No banner ads, and never any advertising on the mushaf.
Questions
Frequently asked
Is HifzMate available yet?
Not yet. The app is in active development and is being prepared for release on iOS and Android. This page describes the product as it is being built; store links will appear here when it ships.
How is HifzMate different from other Qur'an apps?
Most Qur'an apps are readers: they give you the text, translation and audio, and leave the plan to you. A few check your recitation. Habit trackers count streaks. HifzMate is the layer above all of that — it decides what you memorize today, when each page comes back for revision, and shows you which of the 604 pages is fading. See the comparison by category for the details.
Do I need a teacher to use it?
No — HifzMate is designed for people memorizing on their own, which is why it takes over the planning and checking a teacher would normally do. That said, it does not replace a qualified teacher for tajweed mastery or an ijazah. It is a daily companion, not a certificate.
Which Qur'anic text does it use?
The full 604-page mushaf in the Uthmani script (Hafs 'an 'Asim) with IndoPak as an alternative, taken verbatim from verified sources. The Qur'anic text is never generated, edited or hand-typed at any point in the app — that is a hard rule of the project.
How accurate is the recitation checking?
It works at word level: your recording is transcribed and aligned against the verified text, then each word is marked correct, wrong or skipped. It is good enough to catch skipped words, wrong words and order mistakes, and it can still make errors — which is why every flagged word can be disputed with one tap and why a confidence score is shown. Tajweed analysis is a separate, opt-in check on a single verse.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Reading the mushaf, memorizing and revising work without a connection, and your plan and progress are stored on the device. Only the AI recitation check needs the internet, since the audio is analysed on a server.
What is sabaq, sabqi and manzil?
The classical hifz cycle. Sabaq is the new portion you memorize today, sabqi is the recently memorized material you keep warm, and manzil is the long-range revision of everything older. HifzMate schedules all three every day — in plain language if you prefer, with the traditional names shown alongside.
Is it free?
There will be a free tier that covers reading, the daily plan and revision, with premium unlocking the heavier AI features. If you would rather not subscribe, an optional rewarded video can earn you extra AI checks. There are no banner ads anywhere, and no advertising at all on the mushaf screen.
Will my child's voice recordings be safe?
Child profiles do not use cloud recitation checking at all, so their audio is not sent for analysis. More generally, recordings are kept minimal and easy to delete, and profiles for under-13 users are managed by a parent.
