Changelog
Every substantive change to recitid.ai and the RecitID app. Newest first. Smaller fixes and typo runs are not listed here.
Older entries describe prices and limits as they were at the time. See Pricing for the current plans.
Google Analytics 4 now loads on every page load instead of waiting for a cookie banner accept. The banner had been suppressing almost all measurement, leaving us with no view of which pages people read. /cookies has been updated to explain what GA4 does and how to opt out via tracker-blocking extensions, browser settings, or the Google opt-out add-on. No advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking.
The monthly plan (now Monthly Pro) dropped from $14.99 to $9.99/month. The annual plan (now Annual Pro) dropped from $99.99 to $59.99/year, now with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. Annual savings improved from ~45% to ~50% vs monthly. Site copy, JSON-LD, Terms, Help Center, /pricing, /download, /press, llms.txt, and brand-facts all updated.
New /download page replaces the old redirect with a full overview, FAQ, and store links. New /press kit publishes verified brand facts, logos, and a direct press contact. New /status page reports live service state for voice ID, AI Explain, Smart Scanner, Live Khutbah, sync, and payments. This page you are reading is also new. (The /status page was retired on 20 September 2026.)
Added the 10 Qiraat beginner's guide, an asbab al-nuzul explainer, a Quran OCR technical deep-dive, and a Live Khutbah Translation technical deep-dive. All four drafts are in Studio for editorial review.
Published /compare/recitid-vs-ayat. Honest positioning: Ayat is a strong free reader with wide tafsir, RecitID is the identification and understanding platform.
Shipped three drafts to Studio: Murattal vs Mujawwad, How to Learn Tajweed Without a Teacher, and How to Memorize Juz 30.
Added a first-party consent banner. Google Analytics now loads only after Accept and drops a single IP-anonymised cookie. Reject keeps the site completely analytics-free. Full policy on /cookies.
Footer now has a working newsletter form. Visual breadcrumbs added to every feature page, comparison page, guide, and blog article. Hero image LCP optimised.
Published Shazam for the Quran, How to Find Out Who Is Reciting the Quran, and The 20 Most Popular Quran Reciters. Seed scripts make new articles an import-and-commit operation.
New /help hub with 10 categories and 51 articles, each with its own indexable URL and FAQ schema. /support now points here as the authoritative help source.
Dedicated pages for Reciter Identification, Smart Scanner, AI Explain, AI Chat, Auto-Detect, and Live Activity. Each covers how it works, what plans include it, and when to use it.
Pricing updated site-wide to the original $14.99 monthly and $99.99 annual. Reciter framing set to 200+ identifiable by voice and 48+ available for playback. Live Khutbah Translation is 53 languages. All stale numbers fixed. (Superseded on 2026-04-22 by Pricing v3.)
A support article that used to say the app does not recognise voices was reversed. It does. That was the original bug report.
Full rewrite of /privacy with Nigeria Data Protection Act alignment, retention tables, lawful-basis mapping, and a plain-language summary. /terms updated to match.
The Android app is live. All download CTAs now show both App Store and Google Play badges. The old Android waitlist and coming-soon copy is gone.
Five in-depth guide pages published: Best Quran App 2026, How to Memorize the Quran, Famous Quran Reciters, Tajweed for Beginners, and Understanding the Friday Khutbah.
Audio reciter detection is free and unlimited on the free tier. Live Khutbah Translation offers a 1-minute free preview per session. Pricing page rewritten to say this plainly. (Superseded: the free plan now has daily allowances; see the pricing page.)
The homepage now shows a rotating carousel of real app screenshots instead of hand-coded mockups.
