Background Agent
How AlMiQaT keeps locks running after the window closes
What the agent does
On macOS, AlMiQaT can install a per-user launchd agent named com.almiqat.lock-agent after the app has been placed in Applications or ~/Applications and launched.
- Enforce scheduled device locks after the window is closed
- Enforce selected application blocks
- Issue scheduled alerts and start configured Adhan playback
- Open AlMiQaT at login when Start at login is enabled
Where data lives
Native scheduling data is stored under ~/Library/Application Support/AlMiQaT/. Interface state is stored in the app webview’s local storage under almiqat-state-v1.
Trust and control
You control every schedule from the AlMiQaT UI. If you need to stop protection immediately, disable the relevant locks/blocks in the app, or contact support if an agent install needs cleanup help.
Always test with short durations before relying on long overnight locks.
