Maqam: Recite Like the Qaris

Recite the Quran with confidence. Maqam is a Quran recitation practice and hifz app that compares your melody, pacing and pauses with beloved Qaris, ayah by ayah.

Record a short recitation to find your closest Qari style. Then imitate him: follow his pitch, record your take and get a Qari Similarity Score with practical feedback. Read from a printed mushaf, memorize with Hifz and follow a daily Journey.

OPTIONAL HIFZ COACH APP PROTECTION
Maqam uses Android's AccessibilityService API only with your explicit consent for optional app protection. It accesses app identities and window focus, including while Maqam is in the background, to detect when you open apps you select. It places a review screen over those apps until you listen to or recite your ayahs, or turn off protection.

The service does not read screen text, messages, passwords or typed input, take screenshots, or record audio. Accessibility app activity stays on your device and is not sent to Maqam or shared with third parties. You can use Maqam and listen without this permission. Turn off App gate in Hifz Coach Gate or disable Maqam in Android Accessibility settings anytime.

HONEST BY DESIGN
Practice melody, pacing and flow. Maqam does not judge tajweed, certify recitation or hifz, or claim you sound like a reciter. It is a practice mirror between lessons with a teacher.

For beginners, Qari-style students and anyone building a daily recitation and hifz habit. Start with Al-Fatihah and grow.

PRIVACY
Scores, streaks and plans stay with your account. Using Maqam requires agreement to storing recitation audio and related details in private cloud storage to improve the product, for up to 36 months. Request deletion at [email protected]. Saved takes stay on your device. Microphone access is used only when you choose to record.

Internet and a free account required. Quran text: Quran.com. Send feedback from the app.
