À corriger rapidement ### 2/5 — Graphik *2015-04-30, version 1.5* Seit Update ist die Graphik nicht gut und die Ziffern kaum erkennbar ### 3/5 — Salat times *2015-04-30, version 1.5* I have been using this app and it has been really beneficial, however since the update the salat times are not showing, it's just blank? ### 1/5 — Nulllll *2012-12-23, version 1.4* Zéro !! Vous avez vendu votre religion a vil prix. Ce sont des escrocs 😡😡😡😡 mécréant vous êtes !!!!! ### 5/5 — great app *2012-04-04, version 1.4* so simple and easy to use. helping me to show qiblah and shalat timming. so great. ### 5/5 — Good *2012-02-07, version 1.4* Usefull and easy to use! Thanks ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2011-08-19, version 1.3* It is one of the first program that I bought. Since more than a month it is not working, I even reported the problem to the makers but got no response. I am very disappointed with this program. ### 1/5 — False advertising *2011-08-10, version 1.3* This app said it was free for Ramadan. It is not, I was instantly charged $2 plus tax for this app. The disappointing thing is that I already have all this functionality for free through iPray Lite, which has a much better interface. The developer asks us to keep his family in out prayers... Well I would if you hadn't lied about the app being free. ### 5/5 — Very convenient, needs Compass integration *2011-08-08, version 1.3* This app is very convenient. I'd like to see compass integration for the Qibla finder. Right now I switch between the Compass app to point the device North and iSalat, to determine Qibla. ## Frequently asked questions about iSalat ### What does iSalat do? iSalat calculates Muslim prayer times and the direction of Qibla for your current location.
