Introducing MuslimKit, a minimal, privacy-focused Islamic companion for your daily prayers. Salah times, an Al-Quran reader and a Qibla compass come together in one calm, beautifully simple app, so you can stay connected with your faith anytime, anywhere, on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. At MuslimKit, we believe Islam is the heartbeat of your life, and so is your identity. That's why MuslimKit does not collect any of your information, shows no ads, uses no tracking tools and never asks you to create an account. PRAYER TIMES, WHEREVER YOU ARE • Daily prayer times for where you are, from Fajr to Isha, with a live countdown to the next prayer. • MuslimKit uses the calculation method recommended for the country you are in, and changes it when you travel to another country. • Prefer to choose? Pick from methods used around the world, including methods calibrated against prayer times published by local religious authorities, or set your own angles. • Want a prayer time a little earlier or later? Adjust it to suit you, for example to match your local mosque. • An adhan alert for every prayer, with your choice of sound and an optional reminder beforehand. • The Hijri date sits right beside today's times. THE QURAN, ALWAYS WITH YOU • Read the Quran anytime, even without an internet connection. • Pick up right where you left off by saving any ayah as Last Read. QIBLA COMPASS • A clear, easy-to-follow compass that points you to the Qibla direction, wherever you are. YOUR PRAYERS AT A GLANCE • Elegantly designed widgets keep your upcoming prayers in view on your Lock Screen, in the Smart Stack and on your Apple Watch face. • Next Prayer Time shows the next prayer, with an optional ring for the time left. Next Prayers lists the prayers coming up, even after Isha and past midnight. • Choose 12-hour or 24-hour time, and see today's prayer times at a glance in the Apple Watch app. DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE • Available in English, Indonesian, Arabic and Malay, with full right-to-left support in Arabic. • Thoughtfully designed to be accessible to everyone, including people with visual impairments or other accessibility needs, and it works with VoiceOver and larger text. • Made for iPhone and iPad. PEACE OF MIND, BUILT IN All calculations are performed on your device, so there's no need to worry about internet connectivity when finding the Qibla or checking prayer times. Your location and settings stay on your device. MuslimKit is an independent app. It is not affiliated with any institution whose prayer times its calculation methods are calibrated against, or after which a method is named.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Athan holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MuslimKit has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of MuslimKit's written reviews are positive against 0% of Athan's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MuslimKit ships an update weekly, Athan every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
