Awesome UI and lot of other features without Ad. I was doubtful about its iOS compatibility but its at peak. Qibla , prayer time , dikr may other things.

### 3/5 — App Needs improvement

*2025-06-26, version 4.0.46*

Appreciate the great effort behind this application. may Allah reward everyone behind this endeavor. But I have some suggestions to make this app better.
1. Offline recitation while starting of a sura must include bismi.
2. there should be single click button for downloading offline recitation.
3. Also the ayath/pages are not automatically scrolling down according to the recitation. It is stuck in first ayah itself and while the recitation goes on.
4. Please include recite Sheikh Dr. Muhammad Ayoub
5. Also play the recitation when app window is minimized
