## What is Rakaat?

Rakaat is your calm and private Islamic companion. A prayer tracker that helps you stay consistent, with accurate prayer times, clear Qibla direction, and a peaceful experience designed to encourage consistency without pressure, urgency, or guilt.

Discipline begins with simple, reassuring steps.

Rakaat goes beyond traditional Adhan alerts. It respects your attention through a calm, beautiful, and complete experience, making daily prayer tracking feel comfortable and refined, not like another burden in your day.

The goal is not to fill your day with notifications, but to give you a quieter space and precise tools to pray regularly and peacefully.

Why Rakaat is different
• Rakaat is free from ads, urgency, and pressure tactics. Your prayer is a private relationship that belongs to you alone.
• Real privacy, with no internet required, no unnecessary background activity, and no account registration. Your prayer activity stays on your device by default, and the essential tools work locally, with optional iCloud sync when you want to continue across your Apple devices.
• Carefully designed to benefit from Apple technologies such as Apple Health, Apple Home, and Siri Shortcuts.
• Rakaat helps you return to prayer with calmness and clarity, whether you are building a new habit, maintaining your consistency, or starting again after a break. It is built for prayer, and prayer only.
