Ramadan fasts, kept offline

Every feature, from the first launch.

No account, no login, no cloud. Everything runs on your device and works fully offline — nothing in this post is hidden behind a wall.

What Sawm does

Sawm is a calm, respectful companion for Ramadan fasting — brand-neutral, fully offline, and built around what actually matters: did you keep today's fast, and are any days still to make up?

Mark each day as kept, missed, qada (to make up), or exempt with a single tap. A 30-day colour-coded grid tells the story of your whole month at a glance. Before fajr and at maghrib, a soft local notification reminds you without requiring a data connection or account.

When Ramadan ends, your qada list stays with you so makeup fasts are never forgotten. Add a short intention or reflection to any day and look back on the month with gratitude.

• One-tap fast status: kept, missed, qada, or exempt • Suhoor & iftar reminders tied to your local prayer-time offset • 30-day progress grid with colour-coded status • Qada tracker — lists every missed day still to be made up • Per-day notes for intentions and reflections • 100% offline, SwiftData, no account ever required

A look inside

What's inside

Daily fast marker — Tap to set today's status — kept, missed, qada, or exempt — with suhoor and iftar checkboxes and an optional short note.
30-day progress grid — Colour-coded calendar grid covering the full Ramadan cycle; kept days glow teal, missed are muted, qada are amber, exempt are grey.
Qada tracker — Auto-generated list of all missed days not yet made up; mark each qada as completed as you observe makeup fasts after Ramadan.
Suhoor & iftar reminders — Local notifications fired relative to user-set fajr and maghrib times (stored as offset minutes from a base time entered in Settings); no network call required.

Why we built it

Most fasting-tracker apps either bundle prayer timetables requiring live API calls, mix in unrelated features, or lack a dedicated qada log — leaving observant Muslims to track makeup fasts on paper or in Notes with no gentle follow-up reminder.

What makes it different

A focused offline-first Ramadan journal that pairs one-tap fast-marking with a built-in qada tracker and local-notification reminders offset from fajr/maghrib, without a live prayer API, account, or subscription — simpler and more private than all-in-one Islamic super-apps.

Who it's for

Hobbyists who want a tool that respects their time, their gear, and their offline life.
