## What is Iqamah?

Iqamah is a beautifully minimal prayer-times companion for your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Accurate prayer times for any city in the world, with seamless native integrations — Dynamic Island, Live Activities, complications, widgets — that keep you in rhythm with your day, wherever you are.

PRAYER TIMES
• Six calculation methods: Muslim World League, ISNA, Egyptian General Authority, Umm al-Qura, Karachi, Tehran (Jafari)
• Hanafi or Standard Asr jurisprudence
• Per-prayer minute adjustments
• Accurate worldwide via a cities database with proper timezone handling
• Time-sensitive notifications that respect Focus modes without bypassing Do Not Disturb

FASTING MODE (new in 1.6.0)
• Automatic Ramadan detection
• Weekly sunnah days, Ayyam al-Beed, Six of Shawwal, Day of Arafah, first 9 of Dhul-Hijjah, Tasu'a, Ashura
• Mid-Sha'ban and 27 Rajab for Shia communities
• Customizable Suhoor and Iftar reminders
• Beautiful Live Activity countdown in the Dynamic Island

ALWAYS-VISIBLE NEXT PRAYER
• Live Activity & Dynamic Island show your next prayer and Suhoor / Iftar countdowns all day
• Lock-screen widget — glance at your wrist or phone without unlocking
• Home-screen widgets in every size, with adaptive layouts for iPhone and iPad
• Time-sensitive notifications break through Focus modes when you need them

APPLE WATCH COMPANION
• Native watchOS app with prayer-times tab and qibla compass
• Hilal sighting helper for moon-spotting on the 29th of each Hijri month
• Widget complications for every watch face — circular, corner, inline, modular
• Standalone settings; works without your iPhone nearby

HIJRI CALENDAR & MOON
• Hijri date everywhere
• Moon-phase glyph that updates daily
• Astronomically accurate calculations

QIBLA COMPASS
• Real-time direction to the Kaaba
• Accuracy within a fraction of a degree

iCLOUD SYNC
• Change your settings on iPhone, see them on iPad and Apple Watch instantly
• No account, no login — uses your existing iCloud

PRIVACY-FIRST
• 100% on-device computation — no servers, no analytics, no tracking
• Location used only for prayer-time calculation; never transmitted
• No account required
• Free. Free of ads. Free of ulterior motives.

Iqamah is built and maintained by a single developer who wanted a prayer-times app that felt like it belonged on Apple platforms — quiet, beautiful, accurate, and respectful of your attention.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.6.0 — 2026-05-27

Fasting Mode arrives in your pocket and on your wrist.

Comprehensive support for Islamic fasting traditions, with a beautiful Live Activity that keeps your Suhoor and Iftar countdowns in the Dynamic Island all day.

• Automatic Ramadan detection from the Hijri calendar
• Weekly sunnah fasts (Monday and/or Thursday)
• Ayyam al-Beed — the 13th, 14th, 15th of every Hijri month
• Six days of Shawwal, Day of Arafah, first 9 of Dhul-Hijjah, Tasu'a, Ashura
• Shia-specific observances: 15 Sha'ban, 27 Rajab
• Aware of prohibited fasting days (Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, Tashriq)

Customizable reminders:
• Suhoor reminder — 5 to 120 minutes before Fajr
• Iftar reminder — 5 to 120 minutes before Maghrib
• Optional day-before reminder at the time you choose

Right on your wrist: the Apple Watch app shows your fasting status on the prayer-times tab, with widget complications you can place on any watch face.

Other improvements in 1.6.0:
• Smarter location detection — sees your actual neighborhood, not just the nearest big city. Opt-in 25 km auto-detect prompts when you travel.
• Live Activity correctly advances past a passed prayer (no more stuck "Maghrib" hours after sunset).
• Many small polish improvements.

Known limitation: if iOS suspends the app for several hours, the Dynamic Island may briefly show a passed prayer until you reopen Iqamah. Notifications continue to fire normally.

As always — free, ad-free, privacy-first. No tracking, no analytics, no account. All computation on your device.
