Qadamiq is now on Google Play. It is a free Android app that brings a Muslim's day into one calm place: prayer times with the adhan, the Qibla, the Quran with Bangla translation, and small daily missions that help you pray on time and keep doing good. Almost everything works without internet, it has no ads, and the whole app is in English or Bangla.
Key Takeaways
- Qadamiq is free on Google Play for Android, with no ads and no tracking.
- Prayer times are calculated on your phone from your location or a city you pick, so they work offline.
- The Quran comes with the Bangla translation by Dr. Abu Bakr Muhammad Zakaria, with ayah-by-ayah recitation you can download.
- Daily missions, streaks and a "break mode" help you build the habit without guilt on hard days.
What is Qadamiq?
Qadamiq means "step": one step forward every day. Most prayer apps stop at the times. Qadamiq starts there and adds what helps the times turn into a habit: reminders that are gentle rather than loud, the Quran in a language you understand, and small goals you can actually keep.
It is made by Qudexa, the same team that builds software for shops, clinics and salons. Qadamiq is the one made for people rather than businesses.
Prayer times and adhan that work offline
Qadamiq works out the prayer times on your phone, from GPS or a city you choose, anywhere in the world, using the calculation method that fits each country. You can choose Hanafi or Shafi'i for Asr.
At each prayer time you hear the adhan, with a reminder before it and a gentle nudge before that prayer's time ends. The app also marks the forbidden times, reminds you of Jumu'ah, and puts the next prayer on a home screen widget. The Hijri date and an Islamic calendar with the sunnah fasts are built in.
Because nothing has to be fetched from a server, the times keep working on a weak connection or with no connection at all.
The Quran with Bangla translation
The whole Quran is in the app, every surah in Arabic, marked Makki or Madani, with the Bangla translation by Dr. Abu Bakr Muhammad Zakaria and its footnotes.
- Listen ayah by ayah from six reciters, offline too, and from the lock screen.
- Hifz mode: repeat one ayah, loop a range, or slow the recitation down.
- A khatam plan, bookmarks, and the app remembers where you stopped.
The Quran text comes from Tanzil.net, the Bangla translation from QuranEnc.com and the recitations from the Islamic Network (alquran.cloud).
Daily missions: small steps you can keep
The missions are where Qadamiq differs most from a plain prayer-time app. Each day has a short list: pray all five, read some Quran, the adhkar, and any missions you add yourself. There is a morning intention you check in the evening, today's sunnah, and the sunnahs before sleep.
To keep you going there are points, levels, badges and streaks, and a garden that grows with every prayer. Two details matter a lot:
- Break mode for illness, travel or menstruation, so a streak never breaks on days you are excused.
- The app says plainly that points are only for your own motivation, not a measure of reward from Allah.
If keeping a routine has been hard, our earlier guide on small ways to keep a daily habit of salah and Quran explains the thinking behind these features.
More in the app
- Qibla and mosques: a live Qibla compass with the distance to Makkah, and mosques near you on a map.
- Prayer tracker and good deeds diary: tick each prayer with jamaat, see a monthly report and a qaza list, and keep a private note of the good you did.
- Ramadan, tasbih and zakat: sehri and iftar countdown, a fasting and tarawih tracker, a tasbih counter with gentle vibration, and a zakat calculator.
- Family and friends: make a group and do missions together. Prayer counts stay private unless you turn sharing on.

One step a day
Qadamiq will not pray for you, and it is not meant to. It removes the small things that get in the way: guessing the time, losing your place in the Quran, forgetting the sunnahs. What is left is the step itself, one a day. Download Qadamiq from Google Play and start with today's.
