Fajr Buddy is the alarm app built for one purpose: making sure you never miss Fajr again.
Most alarm apps let you dismiss with a single tap — making it far too easy to roll over and go back to sleep. Fajr Buddy is different. To turn off your alarm, you must physically get up and scan an NFC tag placed anywhere in your home — your bathroom, your prayer mat, your kitchen. No scan, no silence.
HOW IT WORKS
• Set your Fajr alarm (or any alarm) in the app
• Place your NFC tag somewhere that requires you to get out of bed
• When the alarm rings, scan the tag to dismiss it
• One-time snooze available — but only once, and it only delays by 5 minutes
FEATURES
• AlarmKit Integration (New) — Native, critical-level system alarms that override your phone's Silent switch and Do Not Disturb modes.
• NFC Tag Dismissal — the only way to stop the alarm is to scan your registered tag
• One-Time Snooze — postpones all subsequent alarms by 5 minutes, once per day
• Lost Tag Mode — if you've misplaced your tag, hold the Lost Tag button for 60 seconds to dismiss without scanning
• Multiple Alarms — set separate alarms for Fajr, Suhoor, or any time you need
• Test Alarm — schedule a test ring in 10 seconds to verify everything is working
• Re-register NFC Tag — replace your tag at any time from Settings
• Clean Dark UI — distraction-free design built for use in low light
YOUR PRIVACY
Fajr Buddy collects zero data. No account needed. No internet connection required. All alarm times and settings are stored locally on your device only. Your NFC tag ID never leaves your phone.
REQUIREMENTS
• iOS 26.1 or later
Whether you struggle to wake up for Fajr or simply want a more disciplined morning, Fajr Buddy gives you the accountability you need.
بارك الله فيكم
Edit: the app limits users to setting only three alarms, which seems unnecessarily restrictive.I also hope you will consider increasing the number of alarms users can set.
Fajr Streaks
Stay motivated! Track your Fajr streak with a 7-day view of the mornings
you woke up on time. Your streak counts every day you dismiss the Fajr
alarm — so you can build the habit that matters most.
Custom Prayer Time Calculation
Dial in accurate prayer times for your location. Choose from 12
calculation methods (Muslim World League, ISNA, Umm al-Qura, Karachi,
Egyptian, and more), pick your madhab (Hanafi or Shafi) for Asr, and
set a high-latitude rule for northern regions.
Force Full Alarm Volume
Never sleep through Fajr again. The alarm now overrides your phone's
volume to make sure it rings loud and clear when it's time to wake up.
