Frequently asked

Does live Quran identification work in a noisy masjid?

Yes, but accuracy depends on distance and noise. Get within ~3m of a speaker and avoid covering the mic. Precise Mode handles tougher acoustics.

Does it drain the battery?

Listening uses the mic and network. Expect similar battery use to a voice call.

Can it identify the Surah before the imam finishes?

Often yes — many surahs are recognized within the first ayah, especially famous openings.

Is the live audio recorded?

Audio is processed only for matching and is not stored. Guest sessions leave no trace.
