Pause before you scroll.
DunyaPause is a free iPhone app for Muslims who want to make distracting apps a little less automatic and create more space for the Quran in everyday life.
HOW IT WORKS
• Choose the apps you want to pause.
• DunyaPause places a Screen Time shield before them.
• When you try to open one, take a moment to read a few ayat.
• Complete your reading, then get temporary access to your selected apps.
• When the access period ends, protection returns automatically.
A CALMER WAY TO USE YOUR PHONE
DunyaPause is not about guilt or punishment. It simply creates a small moment between impulse and action, so you can decide more intentionally what you want to do next.
QURAN, BUILT INTO THE MOMENT
Choose a reading goal that fits you, move through ayat at your own pace, and build a more regular Quran rhythm through moments that already happen in your day.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account required for the core experience.
• Core features work offline.
• The apps you select are handled on your device.
• Protected-app identities, Screen Time totals, Device Activity data, and Quran reading information stay on your device.
• Optional analytics and crash sharing can be controlled separately.
• No ads. No subscription.
STAY IN CONTROL
You choose which apps are protected, your reading goal, and when protection is enabled. You can pause or disable protection from DunyaPause at any time.
DunyaPause uses Apple’s Screen Time technologies and requires Screen Time permission to protect selected apps.
