The Best!

A friend told me about this app a while ago and I’ve absolutely loved it! Love the widgets and various selections available on the home and lock screens, and love the ability to customize reminder times and sounds (the selection available is also so great). Very grateful to the developers for making the app and enabling us users to keep track of our day according to prayer times as we should. If I could suggest an additional feature: I remember being able to select “random” for the adhan sound choice, but I don’t see it anymore, could we perhaps have it again? I wish we could select different sounds from the entire list, making a narrowed down list by the user which the app then uses to randomly select from the selections for the notification(s). And maybe I’m mistaken but there used to be a few more selections for the adhans (more than one for al-Aqsa, too, I think, that I wish were back). These are of course just some additional customization requests, the app itself is lovely!

The Best App for Prayer & Iqama Times, Qibla and the Islamic Calendar!

I’ve tried almost all the apps that display prayer times, and this one is by far the best. It’s an efficient app that is beautifully designed and functionally detailed. On top of that, it has no ads. The app is highly customizable, and I especially love the widgets, particularly the lock screen one, which shows all prayer times along with a countdown timer for the next prayer & the Islamic date in a very compact format.And it doesn’t end there! You can even set Iqama times for congregational prayers, and the Iqama timer is displayed on the lock screen widget too after each Azan. Last but not least, the app offers an extensive list of different Azans to use as alarms.Suggestion: Please consider adding an Islamic Calendar alerts option in the Islamic Holidays section, similar to how holiday event alerts are handled in the default iOS calendar. Jazak Allahu khairan (May Allah reward you with goodness)!

My favorite app at the moment

I just downloaded this app and LOVE how convenient it is, it has one of the features I was looking to the most which displays all salah timings in Home Screen widgets as well. One thing that I really would like to see is how it is supported by IOS 16, I really **reallyyyy** want to be able to add the exact same widget to my Lock Screen as well (which I don’t believe is supported yet considering IOS 16 JUST came out) to know how much time is remaining for the next prayer! Otherwise I love how this app has the qibla finder, no in-app purchases, no ads, easy convenient athan alarms (with so many options to choose from) and tones for snooze alerts as well (: It’s so simple and effective and will be introducing it to my parents, little cousins, and revert friends as well InShaAllah. I’ve added a few things I’d like to see in the app just to throw some ideas out there, which I’ve added below.1. Supported by IOS16 (ability to add widget to Lock Screen)2. Kid/new revert friendly info (how to make wudu, how much to pray during each salah, etc)3. Morning/Evening Adhkar4. Islamic Quote of the day notifications?5. Monday/Thursday fast notificationsAlhamdulilah, I’m really glad I found this app and would love to see how they develop it further. Hopefully you guys can take these ideas into consideration. May Allah swt bless you all immensely and grant you success in this life and the Hereafter Ameen 💓

Needs some bug fixes

Love the app and it has all the features I’m looking for but a there are a few bugs that are really disturbing the experience that I’ll list below that I hope you can fix Inshallah. -Watch complications don’t show anymore if the Watch is locked (whereas before it would show with no problem) -When the iPhone or Watch is turned off and turned back on the widgets go back to English even though in the settings I have manually changed the app language to arabic. -Also the timer for the upcoming athan on the Watch is still not updating properly through the complications for example if there’s 38 min left till the next athan it’ll stay stuck at 42min (perhaps due to issues of not updating in the background when the Watch is locked whereas before the last 2 updates I had no problems whatsoever)

Developer Response
Salam and thanks for the feedback. Complications when locked: This behaviour was introduced in WatchOS 9 for the new complications. We believe Apple will correct it in a future update so that it behaves like the iOS 16 Lock Screen widgets which are using the same code as the complications.Widget Language: iOS 16 introduced issues in the widget languages. We’ve noticed if you switch the app language, they don’t get reflected in widgets (or don’t remain after restarting the device, as you’re experiencing). We’e tracking this issue and hopefully it will get resolved in an upcoming iOS update.Timer getting stuck: Please reach out to our support team, by sending a Feedback email through the app so they can help you troubleshoot further insha'Allah.JazakAllah khair and we appreciate your patience and support.
