Salat Tracker
Read full descriptionHide full description
Build a steady prayer routine, one prayer at a time. Salat Tracker brings prayer times, a personal prayer record, and Qibla guidance together in a calm iPhone experience. No account is required. YOUR DAY, IN PRAYER See times for Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha, with a live countdown to the next prayer. Choose from Muslim World League, ISNA, Egyptian Authority, or Umm al-Qura calculation methods. A SIMPLE DAILY RECORD Mark prayers as completed and see your daily progress. Review your recent history, weekly completion, and streak based on your chosen daily goal. FIND YOUR DIRECTION Use the Qibla compass or display compass-based guidance over a live camera preview. Clear turn instructions help you find the direction of Makkah. Camera guidance is approximate, not camera-position augmented reality. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Prayer history is saved on your iPhone. There are no accounts, ads, or tracking SDKs. Camera guide does not record photos, video, or audio. Device backups may include your history; app cloud sync is not provided. MADE FOR IPHONE Enjoy a calm illustrated home screen, light and dark appearances, larger-text layouts, and optional haptic feedback. Location access is optional. Choose a city, enter coordinates offline, or use your current location. Prayer times use the selected place’s time zone; prayer records use your iPhone’s date. City search uses Apple’s geocoding service and requires internet, not location permission. Offline cities, calculations, and history work without internet. Camera access is optional. Without true-north sensor readings, live Qibla guidance is clearly labelled approximate magnetic guidance and does not confirm alignment. Prayer times can differ from your local mosque's timetable. Choose the method used by your community and confirm locally when needed. Qibla estimates depend on your device's location and compass accuracy; nearby metal or magnets may interfere.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Salat Tracker at weekly against Connected Libraries's every 3 months. Connected Libraries's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
