### 4/5 — Very Good. Please make it excellent

*2025-02-05, version 5.0.0*

This is actually the app that I’m using right now, but it is missing one thing that would make it great.  It only allows one bookmark list.  If I could have multiple bookmark lists, it would be awesome.

### 4/5 — Lovely but flawed with no app support

*2024-01-12, version 5.0.0*

Alláh-u-Abhá!
I use this app all the time. 
I discovered it so many years ago I raised suspicions about what I was doing on my phone during devotions!
This week is the first week I have noticed discrepancies. 
How do we report issues? I cannot find a live link for app support.

### 5/5 — Wonderful Prayer App

*2016-08-19, version 3.8*

This is a phenomenal app to have at any given moment. My only feature request is to add a night mode (black background, grey-white text) so this can be used in the dark without being harsh on the eyes.

### 5/5 — Very Good app

Thank you for making this wonderful app!!

### 3/5 — Awesome!

*2015-11-21, version 3.6*

I just realized that there is a section for Grace at Table.

Two prayers in there, one, the source is "Mahmud's Diary"

Am I missing something here?

### 5/5 — :)

### 5/5 — Bahai Prayers

*2015-10-25, version 3.5*

This app is a wonderful resource to always have handy. It is a blessing to have whenever it is needed. For me that means whenever there is call spiritual refreshment and my soul nourished.

### 5/5 — Wonderful App

*2015-10-15, version 3.3*

Use this prayer book every night. When we use it at a junior youth group, it's particularly useful to know how many words are in each prayer. Love it!

### 5/5 — A gem of a program

*2015-09-22, version 3.4*

### 1/5 — Broken App

*2015-10-31, version 3.5*

When will this be fixed?  After update on iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.3 the app never loads. Deleted and re-installed but still broken.  Was a 5 star app, sadly it's now broken.

### 1/5 — J'aime prier

*2012-10-12, version 2.1*

Hélas que l'écran reste blanc ! Merci de corriger sur l'iPhone

### 1/5 — Not responsible

*2012-06-09, version 2.1*

At all

### 1/5 — Prayer book

*2012-02-12, version 2.1*

At the same price, this app. isn't any more useful than a hard-copy prayer book.  It is simply a categorised list.  No context is provided for when to use one prayer instead of another in the same category, without taking the time to read them all first.  Maybe that's the intention?

### 1/5 — Ne marche plus !

*2011-02-22, version 1.4*

L'écran reste noir au lancement !

### 1/5 — BAHA'I PRAYERS

*2011-01-13, version 1.4*

Désolé lais avec la nouvelle version l'application ne s'ouvre pas. A corriger de toute urgence tant la version précédente était parfaite !

### 1/5 — Ça ne s'ouvre pas !!

*2010-12-22, version 1.4*

No functionnable

### 1/5 — Español?

*2009-10-11, version 0*

Por mucho ke diga, yo no encuentro el Español por ningún lado

### 3/5 — Prayer Book ( Baha'i )

*2020-03-21, version 4.0*

SUGGESTION ~ the SEARCH area is dark blue. The letters one types are black. CANT READ what is put down ie) if there was a typo etc. 
Otherwise it’s wonderful. 
➕Plus there is no way to get support & the message to click on Google+ is out of date ( was shut down). No way to contact developer or get support or make suggestions.

### 3/5 — Search bar

*2019-02-27, version 4.0*

The search option doesn't work on iPhone 5C. It gives just a blank page. And I don't like the new blue look

### 5/5 — Bahai Prayers

*2025-03-13, version 5.0.0*

Excellent multilingual Bahai prayer book

### 5/5 — 5 star ⭐️

*2024-03-01, version 5.0.0*

i think this app is extremely useful for bahai’s especially when you forgot to bring your prayer book , and it’s also portable to bring EVERYWHERE OR ANYWHERE you just don’t have to worry about bringing a prayer book

### 5/5 — Night mode?

*2021-10-14, version 4.1.0*

I love this app, I use it all the time. I was wondering about how the categories and prayer title pages are black in the background, and how I could make the prayer pages also black in the background so that I can use it late at night without a bright white screen :) A night mode/day mode toggle might work? Not sure. Thanks for all you do :-)

### 5/5 — The standard prayer app

*2021-01-17, version 4.1.0*

This app is very easy to use and it’s great that new prayers and languages are often added to the catalogue. 

A humble suggestion, to improve the bookmark feature there needs to be a way of organising them. There are two options for this, (1) the bookmarks section can be sorted by category, or (2) in the prayer catalogue itself a marker is placed on those prayers that have been bookmarked. One of these options would address my suggestion regarding the arrangement of bookmarks. 

Many thanks for your service,

### 5/5 — Great!

*2020-07-04, version 4.0*

I have noticed that the prayer, or God, refresh and gladden my spirit is “not” included. As far as I can tell, the origins or original text for this prayer has not been found, but guidance has been provided to publish it anyway. Maybe you have more information than I do?It would be great if you could include it assuming it is permitted.

I have been using this app since the beginning and it is still my go-to prayer book. Many many thanks !!!

### 5/5 — Language request

*2020-03-10, version 4.0*

This is a great app that I’ve been using for years now. I wonder if it would be possible to add Samoan language. I would be happy to help if you could provide an email contact. Warm regards, Bob

### 5/5 — Easy to use & dozens of prayers

*2018-06-01, version 3.8*

This is a wonderful app, there are prayers under several categories all revealed by the central figures of the Baha’i Faith. Easy to use and great for daily use.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2017-06-12, version 3.8*

Allah'u'abha! This is the perfect little app that has everything I need and so easily categorized to jump right to what you need. Can throw in a prayer for every occasion in an instant and have a whole prayer book right in your pocket. Thanks so much for this.

May I make a request, would it be possible to add a language tab from the prayer itself to jump to another language. For example, my mother who speaks Farsi (and I cannot read it) and for my cousin who speaks German were looking for the Tablet of Ahmed. I have no idea where it is when I switch the languages to their respective tongues. However, if I could find it in English and then jump to the Persian and German versions right from the prayer page to have it immediately. This would be a very handy tool, I think. 

Thank you for this app as it is. All the best to you.

### 5/5 — ¡Excelente!

*2017-01-26, version 3.8*

¡La app es perfecta!
¡Muchas Gracias Queridos Amigos!

### 5/5 — Good

*2017-01-19, version 3.8*

Very comfortable and beautiful app!☺️
Please add Russian language 😔
