## What is Never Miss Fajr?

The problem it tries to solve is this: you have every intention of waking up for fajr, but you turn off your alarm mistakenly while half asleep. Next thing you know, the sun is out... Sound familiar?

The idea behind the app is simple: to wake you up for Fajr by being as annoying as possible!

It's just like a regular adhan alarm clock with one big exception:

It annoys you until you actually wake up by asking you to do something before the adhan shuts off! Until you do what it asks, the adhan will keep on playing in a loop AND your phone will vibrate incessantly!

There are two "triggers" to choose from to wake yourself up.

1. Trivia: if you choose this option you will have to answer 5 islam-related questions correctly before the adhan shuts off. 

2. Shake to wake: if you choose this option you will have to shake your phone 20 times before the adhan shuts off.

InshaAllah by the end of either of these two activities you will be awake enough to get out of bed to pray!

### 5/5 — Loved this app

*2026-06-18*

May Allah bless the person who made this their intention and very goal to help others . Indeed Allah loves those who are beneficial to the people .                    al-Mu’jam al-Awsaṭ lil-Ṭabarānī 6026

### 5/5 — Salam عalaykoum

*2025-02-27*

S’il vous plaît , faites un widget. 
Ça m’ennuie de devoir laisser l’app ouverte et surtout de devoir l’utiliser en dernier avant de dormir. Ce serait bien que ça marche comme fonctionne l’alarme
De notre téléphone. 
Qu’Allah vous récompense.

Si on installe l’app sur un appareil qu’on utilise pas, est-ce qu’il faut l’ouvrir l’app tous les soirs ou est-ce que ça va sonner automatiquement tous les matins  ?

### 5/5 — Works well but, I have to spend too long to turn the alarm off

*2025-02-24*

Allhumdilah, this app wakes you up for Fajr but maybe make a option for no trigger, because I don’t want to spend my time after I wake up trying to do trivia or shake my phone to turn the adhan off, (especially in Ramadan) maybe other people need that so please make it an option, and maybe put a option of how many times the adhan plays because I don’t need it to loop or repeat it’s self. Barkula feekum

### 5/5 — شكراً

*2024-10-14*

جزاكم الله خيرا على هذا التطبيق الرائع 🤲🤲❤️

### 5/5 — Woks for me

*2024-10-07*

The app details are clear enough about the app purpose. I chose the quiz option and it is working for me. Jazak’Allah to the app developer.

### 2/5 — Text size and contrast is not good

*2024-03-10*

There needs to be an option to change text height and the combinations of text colours and background colours on several screens are very hard to read. Does mot look like actively maintained. 
Insha allah his next app does not have these mistakes

### 5/5 — Effective but alter trivia.

*2023-09-27*

I love this app it actually wakes me up! The only suggestion I have is to let users see the right answer in the trivia question when they get it wrong. I often get the trivia wrong and can never learn from my mistakes because the right answer isn’t highlighted. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Plss continue to update this app with more features!

*2023-09-03*

This is a wonderful app pls continue to update it! Deserves more downloads!! Love it thank you!!

### 5/5 — Awesome APP!!!!
