Let’s see what writing a review does ### 1/5 — Ty *2026-05-06, version 1.8.9* The ### 1/5 — Gps *2025-02-03, version 1.8.9* Every time no gps signal ### 1/5 — Very good!! *2024-12-31, version 1.8.9* From anywhere everywhere ### 1/5 — meh *2024-11-28, version 1.8.9* Imagine being so petty that you have to lock your free prayer app behind a mandatory donation or a review. ### 1/5 — Excellent *2024-08-28, version 1.8.9* It’s excellent ### 1/5 — T *2022-11-29, version 1.8.9* 1 ### 2/5 — Not correct 😢 if you don’t have a compass 🧭 in your actual device. *2025-09-23* Unfortunately the direction is not at all correct. Disappointed 😢 because I was hoping that it could use satellite and internet connection to help me face the western wall. Unfortunately it cannot. I have an older iPad. The Prayer 🤲🏻 times are spot on though. I will check back in a few months and see if this is something that has been remedied. But at the moment because my iPad doesn’t have a built in compass 🧭 unfortunately for me this app doesn’t work correctly. ### 2/5 — GPS *2025-08-21, version 1.8.9* You need to sway the phone around so it can get the bearings Often doesn’t work indoors or when I was in upper Michigan ### 2/5 — Need help when traveling *2024-12-12, version 1.8.9* Inconsistent!!
