Pakdata quran majeed4/10/2023 ![]() ![]() This is how Pakdata entered the world of mobile, where today it’s one of the biggest local players. In 2014, they launched its Android version and today, the two apps combined have over 40M downloads. But when Steve Jobs launched the App Store, Pakdata jumped on the bandwagon with an iOS product by the name of ‘Quran Majeed’ in 2010. The company released its first Windows product in 1998 after an impressive debut of Windows 1998 while gray clouds hung over Apple’s future. At the time, the total number of personal computers in the world was 43 million and wouldn’t be more than a few thousand max here at home. They actually started developing software for Islamic content in 1989, the year when the first Apple portable laptop was released. Leading that list was Pakdata, one of the earliest companies to enter the space. ![]() Last week, we mapped the religious apps landscape – both with respect to Pakistani user and the major local apps publishers. How a Pakistani company became a top mobile apps publisher Overall, the list is heavily dominated by global social media while among local names, telecom players are the usual suspects, led by Easypaisa. It has been on the top charts for some time so it’s not a big surprise. Meanwhile, Bytedance-owned Capcut, a video editing tool, was the most downloaded app in Pakistan with an estimated 499K installs across the two stores. The telco and finance tilt here is hard to miss. Among these, Jazzworld had the highest rank (25). Between Oct 9 and Oct 15, there were only 12 Pakistani names in Data.ai’s Top 100. That’s best reflected in the dearth of Pakistani products in Data.ai’s active user rank. Over the past month, we have written about how very few local apps have been able to scale IN Pakistan. For the deep dive, this week features how a Karachi-based company became a top apps publisher from Pakistan by picking a niche, or unsexy, market. Additionally, we will highlight the most downloaded apps in the country (irrespective of the publisher’s origin) using Appfigures estimates. Unfortunately, we don’t have access to the actual number so it’s only going to be a ranking. So from now on, we’ll start with the top 10 Pakistani apps in order of their active user rank for the previous week, as given by Data.ai. Quran Majeed is the perfect app for followers of Islam with tons of tools that you can take advantage of once it's installed on your Android.Welcome to the fourth edition of Appistan! There was no newsletter last week as we were trying to experiment with a new format that does a mix of weekly updates plus a deep dive into a particular company or category. From here, you can access all kinds of prayers and information for specific days and situations, such as going to the bathroom and finishing a meal. In short, it's an excellent way to read or listen to the Quran whenever and wherever you want.Īdditional features are included in the Duas section. With this app, you can read, bookmark, or listen to any passage you want, plus much more. It comes with an audio version, too, so you can listen to the text in several different languages. Quran Majeed also includes a version of the Quran that you can read whenever you want. It's important to keep in mind, however, that in order to use some of the app's more advanced features, you'll need to grant location permissions. This feature, when coupled with the aforementioned compass, practically guarantees that you'll never miss a prayer. One of the most useful tools included in this app is its prayer clock, which notifies you of the exact time for each of the six daily prayers. Quran Majeed is the definitive app for all Muslims, as it includes tons of features related to this faith, ranging from a prayer schedule to the Quran itself, as well as a compass that always points to Mecca. ![]()
