Hafiz Is Live: Track Your Qur’an Reviews Before They Fade
You memorized a surah eight months ago. Someone asks you to lead it in prayer, and halfway through, the next ayah just isn't there. Not gone, exactly — you'd recognize it instantly if someone read it to you. But you can't produce it on your own, and you had no idea it had slipped until the moment you needed it.
That's the problem with memorization: it doesn't fail loudly. It fades quietly, portion by portion, and the only reliable way to catch it before a test catches it for you is to review on a schedule. Most people who've memorized any real amount of Qur'an know this. Almost none of them are tracking it.
Hafiz is now live on the App Store to fix that.
What it does
Hafiz is a review tracker for what you've already memorized, not a new way to memorize. You log reviews as you do them, and the app tells you what's overdue.
- Track by surah, ayah range, or mushaf page — log reviews at whatever granularity matches how you actually memorized
- Log how you reviewed it — listening, reading along, or reciting fully from memory, so a passive listen doesn't get treated the same as a clean recall
- A "Needs Attention" list that surfaces the portions you've neglected longest, so you're not guessing what to review today
- A daily target ring and weekly consistency view, the same shape of feedback that makes habit apps work, pointed at hifz instead of steps or workouts
- Gentle reminders and streak tracking to keep review from quietly dropping off your schedule
- A retention heatmap by Surah, Juz, Hizb, or Page (Premium) — a visual map of where your memorization is strong and where it's thinning out
Private by design, not by policy
Hafiz runs fully offline. No account, no sign-up, no data leaving your device. That's not a marketing line bolted on after the fact — there's no server for your review log to go to. What you've memorized and how well you're retaining it is nobody's business but yours.
Pricing
Hafiz is free to download, with a Premium subscription at $1.99/month that unlocks the retention heatmap. If cost is the only thing between you and using it, the in-app Barakah Initiative gives out free Premium access on request, no questions asked.

If you use QuranCar to memorize during your commute, Hafiz is the other half of the loop: it's what keeps what you memorized from quietly slipping away once the memorizing part is done.
