It definitely helps with keeping track of my prayers and whatnot. Only issue is that whenever the pop up for the subscription shows up, there is no X button to dismiss it. I can’t open the app to use it at all and I’m only able to see the prayer time from the widget. It didn’t use to be like that but it’s been like this for a while. I’ve even deleted and downloaded it but I’m still unable to dismiss it and access the app. Would love to see that improve ### 3/5 — paywall *2026-08-11, version 1.0.8* I literally cannot use the app unless i accept a 1 month trial which id rather not do ### 2/5 — Is it really free *2026-08-02, version 1.0.8* I’m stuck at to pay for membership so maybe don’t get your hopes up it was promising but it wasn’t free ### 3/5 — inaccurate prayer times *2026-07-29, version 1.0.8* everytime i open the app its asking for a new update 😕 ### 3/5 — Good but the pay wall is annoying *2026-07-19, version 1.0.8* I was really happy to download the app, it was a breath of fresh air after using Muslim Pro for a decade. It’s annoying ads that had haram things being promoted is what made me leave it for Nafs. Nafs is great in so many ways, but the pay wall is annoying. I opened and closed the app four times in a row because the pall wall wouldn’t go away after pressing X. It finally went away on the fifth try, but come on. It should’ve simply gone away after the first time. I get you need money to keep the app going, trust me. And I do hope it’s a bug! But if it’s not, it will not make users want to buy the subscription. Instead it will make people want to delete the app, all your hard work going to waste. I genuinely believe it’s one of the best Muslim apps made, and I love the features it has. So I don’t want the app to go downhill. I hope I didn’t come across as rude or anything. Thank you. ### 2/5 — i can’t use the app *2026-07-16, version 1.0.8* I really like the app, but it’s asking me to start a free trial and since i don’t have a card on my phone i’m not able to go forward with the app. It isn’t giving me any option to not do the free trial or x out of it so i’m just stuck on that page. Please fix this problem i really love the app before this happened! ### 4/5 — I lovee but.. *2026-07-14, version 1.0.8* i am obsessed with the layout and the information on app as i am a revert. being able to read hadiths and have all the names of Allah in one place is amazing and i love the games aswell. my only issue is the app is almost unusable right now. the pop up for the subscription won’t go away no matter how many times i press the X. i love the app but it can be buggy sometimes. i’m sticking it out right now, InshAllah an update comes soon that’ll fix it. ### 4/5 — Love the app but not free *2026-07-13, version 1.0.8* I really like the app but can’t access any of the widgets without being prompted to purchase a membership. If I try to close out of it, the same pop up appears and prevents me from using any of the features. I really do love this app but am saddened I can no longer use it because of the constant membership pop up. ### 2/5 — Free Version not available *2026-07-09* Suggestion would be to keep the free version. **Developer response:** salam! we’re still a startup, and we’re trying to build something that lasts, especially with our hardware and all the new features we have planned. because of that, we’ve had to restructure our subscription model. our goal is to keep it at the same affordable price, but unfortunately we can’t offer the app completely free to everyone anymore. if we did, we wouldn’t be able to stay ad-free or continue building and improving nafs. inshallah, the $1.99/month goes directly toward supporting the team, keeping our engineers employed, and helping us build what’s next. that said, if you genuinely can’t afford it and you’ve been an early supporter who truly loves nafs, we’d be more than happy to gift you a free subscription (reach out to us at nafs.fyi/contact) we really appreciate you being with us from the beginning, so don’t worry about it ### 3/5 — inaccurate prayer times *2026-06-30* if u guys could improve please write accurate prayer times based off like local mosques or areas, as having prayer times that is hours off because it’s based of city is very inaccurate **Developer response:** salaam! if your prayer times are hours off, it usually means a setting may have been selected incorrectly. for example, if you’ve chosen the hanafi madhab, asr will naturally be around an hour later than the standard calculation, which is expected. we also already support flexible prayer time adjustments. you can head to Settings → Prayer Settings and adjust each prayer time to match your local masjid if you’d like. every masjid uses slightly different calculations and conventions, so no app can match every local masjid by default. that’s why we built in the ability to customize the timings yourself. if you’re still seeing times that are genuinely hours off after checking those settings, let us know your city, your selected calculation method, and your madhab, and we’d be happy to investigate further. ### 3/5 — Love this app + Feedback *2026-06-29, version 1.0.7* I love this app it’s like an all in one and I don’t have to have multiple apps for different things. I also love how I can choose my prayer times and what I follow because usually some apps don’t allow that and I get a notification for asr prayer like an hour before I pray as a hanafi. I would love if there was a way to add previous menstrual cycles to update predictions because I can only add current cycles. There are also things you only get with a subscription which you can get for free using other apps which is unfortunate like widgets, fertile windows, cycle predictions, prayer alarms etc. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — So frustrating *2026-08-14, version 1.0.8* This was a great app until they completely cut your access to the app unless you subscribe and agree to paying once the ‘free trial ends’. I can’t even access my previous information like period dates that I’ve previously put into the app so i’ve lost track of everything. So disappointing ### 1/5 — Can’t get past the pop *2026-08-06, version 1.0.8* The app was really good when it first came out but it must no longer be free. I can’t get past the pop up asking about a membership. It’s super annoying and if it’s not free anymore I would’ve liked to know that instead of endless pop ups about subscription options ### 1/5 — frustrating problem! *2026-08-01, version 1.0.8* why on earth can i not view my cycle logs on the app without paying for a subscription. i’ve been logging it in there for some time now and i simply want to access it and get rid of this app! i DON’T want to pay for a subscription, fix this or tell us beforehand that this app requires a subscription to access even the most basic of things! and we can’t take screenshots either! you’ve ALOT TO FIX ### 1/5 — Too many bugs and bad support *2026-07-31, version 1.0.8* I really wanted to love this, but after the terrible experience I’ve had with the ad pop ups blocking my access entirely, terrible customer support, and just a jumble of bug issues, I’ve been forced to delete my account through the back end. What are you supposed to do when you literally cannot access the app because of constant ads about subscriptions blocking your access? And refusal for help from customer service on top of that. The fasting tracking was also hella confusing and needed work. And, the only device available for syncing was apple watch. People have other devices! I really wanted to like this but I do hope this experience improves, far too many bugs and the organization is cluttered and confusing. Also, why is there no login button when you first download the app? I have to remake my profile, which is hugely inconvenient. Please also improve your support outreach. ### 1/5 — No way to refuse free trial *2026-07-19, version 1.0.8* When the app was initially released, there was no requirement to create an account or subscribe for anything. Now, you cannot utilize the app without an account as there is no option. I was upset with that but it was reasonable as you could still use the app’s basic features. Unfortunately, they updated the app and now you cannot even use the basic features of the app advertised as they force you to sign up for their free trial. There is currently no option to refuse the free trial so you are effectively locked out of the app. Such a shame because the app was really good and I was considering donating at some point. ### 1/5 — Cannot use *2026-07-18, version 1.0.8* At first I loved this app. It’s clean, concise, thoughtful and easy to use, but I’ve had too many issues to even access the app. I have been logged out of my account numerous times for no reason, and forced to create a new account when I really needed to check the prayers times, making me late or almost miss prayers. I open the app everyday, so it doesn’t make sense why I would be logged out. The female health/cycle features are locked behind a paywall unfortunately, but I paid for a month’s subscription to test it out. I found that I didn’t really use the features so I cancelled the subscription, but now I cannot access the app at all- all the free content is blocked by a subscription pop-up with no way to close it. I’ve tried closing and restarting the app, deleting and redownloading it, and making a new account, but just opening the app immediately brings up the payment page. It’s really disappointing that I’m being forced to pay just to view my prayer times, when they were previously accessible for free. Thankfully, I still get my prayer notifications, but other than that, the app is unusable. I can’t change any settings, access my account, view the Quran, etc. I really hope there’s some fix for this because I prefer this app over other prayer apps, but nafs has let me down on so many occasions in the short time I’ve had it. ### 1/5 — Issue *2026-07-12, version 1.0.8* Stuck on the screen where it offers me options for subscription Try to x out and then takes me back to the other screen where it asks me to look at options Really upsetting because I was enjoying the app and now I can’t seem to use it ### 1/5 — Paywalls - Not a Free App *2026-07-12, version 1.0.8* I liked the app at first but now I can’t use it at all without a paywall popping up constantly. I can’t access any function like the journal, period tracking, prayer times. Whats the point of advertising as a free app? Super disappointed. ### 1/5 — Unnecessary Membership *2026-06-30, version 1.0.7* I was very excited about a new prayer app that caters to women but I find it ridiculous that in order to use the app widgets you need to pay a membership fee. The widgets are the bare minimum features that should be free. This made me completely lose interest in this app. Memberships are fine and I am one to sign up for them but this is not it. ### 2/5 — App not usable *2026-08-20, version 1.0.8* Cute concept but unfortunately it’s not at all usable because there is a payment plan page that takes up the whole screen and prevents you from even using the app. Very disappointing ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I have been looking for an app like this FOR SO LONGGG *2026-08-11* al hamdoulilah guys Thank you so much ### 5/5 — don’t play with sis *2026-07-25, version 1.0.8* the app is smooth , whys it making my old iphone seem new ? motivating me to pray and read quran after feeling distant from religion. from black woman to black woman you’re setting standards for coming generations , family should be proud allahumabarik ### 5/5 — Amazing app, clean ux *2026-07-16, version 1.0.8* Love the app. It has everything I need and more in an Islamic app. I literally deleted 2 others apps because this one has everything. My one feedback is the Quran listening experience. There should be a dedicated tab you can go to to listen to the Quran just like you can read. Right now when I try to listen to the Quran I go through many routes to get there and when I do listen to the surah, it does not play the next one afterwards. I have to go back in and select the next surah. Continuous listening would be amazing and a dedicated listening tab. JazakAllah khair ### 5/5 — 100% recommend!!! *2026-07-12, version 1.0.8* As a Muslim revert I used the Athan app for the longest time. And throughout the years I have come across other apps I have wanted to try. I used Flo to track my cycle as well. And WALLAH this is the best app I have ever come across. They have everything in one app. Tracking my cycle has become so much easier with this app as well as learning, keeping track of missed fasts, journaling, and of course PRIVACY, NO AI, NO ADS, and cheaper than paying for Flo and Athan at the same time. Alhumdulilah for this amazing app and may Allah grant an abundance of blessings to the brothers and sisters helping build this app! Ameen. Thank YOU🫶🏼 ### 5/5 — Very thoughtfully developed for the lifestyle of a Muslim, MashaAllah! *2026-07-11, version 1.0.8* I love how several aspects of my life, such as ibadah, seeking knowledge, and my monthly cycle are thoughtfully catered to in this app. JazakAllahu Khaira to the developers. ### 5/5 — Love this app!! *2026-07-08, version 1.0.8* This app is like nothing I’ve ever experienced before. I love that it’s so all in one. I can’t wait to see how the platform continues to grow. A heads up I think the app is glitching right now because it won’t allow me to continue to the homepage without purchasing a subscription ### 5/5 — Essential *2026-07-04, version 1.0.7* I find this app easy to navigate, it’s also very useful, no ad popups taking over whenever I open it. ### 5/5 — Nafs review *2026-07-02, version 1.0.7* This app help me a lot and I’m so thankful to have it thank you for making for us ### 5/5 — App *2026-06-29, version 1.0.7* Great app! ### 5/5 — Update =lost journal entries? *2026-06-28, version 1.0.7* I recently started using this app last month and it helped me so much with learning salah, dua, and the proper way to navigate Islam. I’m only sad and making this review to let the developers know that I lost all my progress after a recent update :( I’m not sure if that usually happens but I lost so many of my journal entries and I planned to turn them into decor for my prayer room- so I can always be reminded of the hardship Islam has helped me through. I will definitely be using this app for years to come and it’s still 5 stars too me! <3 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
