### 3/5 — Notifications aren’t consistent

*2026-07-30, version 7.4.5*

I had this app before the subscription and the notifications were very inconsistent, they now have notis behind a paywall and I thought it’d be better but it’s still inconsistent. To get the notifications working again I have to go back into the app and disable and re-enable them again. But after doing that it’ll stop working again after a couple days. Pls fix cos otherwise it’s a good app and would happily pay to support.

### 4/5 — Bug fix

*2026-07-05, version 7.4.5*

Large widget: put asr jamaat Time after Asr 2 rather than Asr 1

### 3/5 — Background app refresh

*2026-01-22, version 7.2.1*

No background app refresh on iPhone? This stops the prayer times on the widget updating automatically. Also the widget recently changed and is too large for my liking. Would like more widget size options. Thanks for all your work on this!

### 4/5 — Great app

*2025-03-08, version 6.2.0*

It’s a great app and helps me track when all the prayer times are so I never miss a salah In Shaa Allah. Only thing is after a certain days of receiving notification to my iphone, it stops giving me notifications and I have to reset the app

### 4/5 — Good app

*2024-05-25, version 6.2.0*

Like it but just have ads

### 4/5 — Apple Watch app not working

*2024-04-03, version 6.2.0*

The app is great, but when adding the widget to the Apple Watch, the prayer time shows up as a dash (-). It would be good to also have full functionality on the Apple Watch

### 3/5 — Great at start

*2023-05-06, version 6.2.0*

Was working fine until it stopped making notification sound. I’ve tried everything even re starting my iPhone 14 pro and uninstalling the app. Please fix

### 2/5 — Salah notifications stop

*2023-04-01, version 6.2.0*

The Salah notifications stop after a few days.
Very helpful app when it works.
I set up notifications for Mithl 1 and it works for a few days. Works on Apple Watch for a few days also and then stops.
I have to use two prayer apps but would prefer to use this one as it’s similar to local Masajid

### 4/5 — Good app but prayer notifications don’t always appear

*2022-03-21, version 6.1.1*

Only glitch is that the prayer alerts suddenly stop appearing on my notifications bar

### 5/5 — Syed w Jilani

*2021-10-05, version 6.1.1*

Exam is done by the time

### 3/5 — Notificationa not working

*2021-10-03, version 6.1.1*

Love the app, however the notifications work for a day for each salaah time, then after the notifications cease. Wonder if this could be reviewed? Otherwise the app is great.

### 5/5 — An excellent prayer guide

*2021-08-16, version 6.1.1*

This app is very useful and comprehensive in many ways

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Incorrect prayer timetable

*2025-02-01, version 6.2.0*

Current prayer timetable is incorrect. Would not use this again

### 1/5 — At least the app could give adzhan for free

*2024-03-20, version 6.2.0*

It’s okay, gives the prayer times it could give the call to the prayer for free very limited on the free version. There are other apps on the market that allow you to enjoy the call to prayer for free. Also recite read, listen to the Quran Hadid and much more for free

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-01-25*

Terrible app. Downloaded it to simply find out prayer times in Adelaide (South Australia), didn’t have it, even after allowing the location, entering in my nearest mosque - nothing. Its only for people who live in London i guess 🤷🏽‍♀️

### 1/5 — App NOT working

*2024-01-01, version 6.2.0*

It was a great app BUT now it’s NOT working with local Mosques. We cannot see any prayer timetable from 1 January 2024!!! The App needs to be updated soon.

### 1/5 — You have removed S/C from my widgets

*2021-03-17, version 6.0.5*

You have removed the app from being on my widgets

### 1/5 — Font size and widget issue

*2021-01-29, version 6.0.3*

Issue with the widget still exit on the iPad plus on both the iPhone and iPad font and size doesn’t seem to be right!

### 2/5 — Glitch / Software issue

*2026-03-11, version 7.4.3*

The app is great in itself, lets you allocate the timings to your local mosque and your madhab. However it has been a couple months since the app doesn’t show up on my widget and is coming up just a black square?!?!?!?! Please fix this asal

### 2/5 — No notifications???

*2026-01-05, version 7.2.0*

I am not getting any notifications for the prayers since the update, HELP.

I checked the notifications section in settings and this app in not even there

### 2/5 — Why nosecond mithl??

*2025-02-01, version 6.2.0*

Why is there suddenly no option to set Asr to the second mithl? Why was this option taken away?

### 2/5 — Notification stops working

*2023-07-02, version 6.2.0*

Many people complain that the notification stops working after a few days, you then have to go into the app to disable and re-enable, but the developer keeps ignoring the issue and never mentions it which I find very strange! Without notification this app isn’t much help and I’m now looking at other options. I paid for the pro version!
