  • Simple, beautiful and thoughtful

    Love the simplicity, the greeting, the qiblih indicator and the 95 counter. The link of the rotating text to the source is great. Thank you!
  • Amazing

    So wonderful for saying my obligatory prayer. Practically, it’s so helpful to know where to face, but then aesthetically I feel like the elegance of this app also puts me in a prayerful mood, which is super difficult when using a phone so I’m really impressed.
  • Great app! (One suggestion)

    First off, love the app, very cool aesthetic and user-friendly UX/UI.

    One feature suggestion: it would be nice to offer a comment or note function available for each of the daily writings to allow users to jot down their thoughts and reflections. Then, there would be a library or record of sorts to look back on said reflections.
