Background

Deed Tracker is a mobile app designed to help Muslims keep track of their daily spiritual practices, including prayers, supplications, charity, and other good deeds. With a user-friendly interface, customizable reminders, and insightful progress tracking, the app empowers users to build better habits and stay connected to their faith effortlessly.

The Problem

Muslims seeking consistency in their spiritual practices often struggle with tracking their progress and staying motivated. Existing solutions, such as journals or basic habit-tracking apps, lack features tailored to Islamic spiritual needs, such as prayer reminders and charity tracking.

Understanding the Problem

What I Found

• There is no easy way to track: Many people don’t have a simple way to record their daily deeds or spiritual practices.

• Hard to Stay Consistent: Without reminders and easy tracking, it’s tough for people to stick to their goals.

• Lack of Motivation: It’s hard to stay motivated without seeing progress or having something to keep you going.

Key Insights

• People Need a Simple Tool: Users want something quick, easy, and customizable to track their spiritual deeds.

• Progress is Key: People stay more motivated when they see their progress and get reminders to stay on track.

Key Questions to Consider

• Before moving forward, I needed to answer some key questions:

• Am I solving the right problem?

• Who will use the app? (People looking to track and stay consistent with spiritual habits)

• Why is an app the best solution? (It provides structured tracking, reminders, and motivation)

• What core features are needed for a strong first version?

Secondary Research

After speaking with people in different settings, three key points stood out:

✅ People want something easy to use: A simple, intuitive tracking system is essential.
✅ Motivation plays a big role: Streaks, badges, and progress tracking encourage consistency.
✅ Personalization is key: Users want the ability to track different deeds based on their spiritual goals.

By identifying these challenges, I designed Deed Tracker as a personalized, easy-to-use tool to help people stay on top of their daily spiritual habits.
