Online Azan

- Useful for travelers
- Beneficial during Ramadan

Benefits of Online Azan: 1 When people are travelling they can be far from the mosque. So having the online azan can help them as a reminder to respond to Azan as per sunnah and also pray on time 2 There are Jamath people who live far away from the masjid and can just hear the little sound of the azan or no azan. If someone has a/c at home then they can't hear azan. Also, people who are old can't hear it properly if noise is around even with Fan is on. Having an online Azan app can help to bring Azan directly to their mobile and can help them to hear clearly and respond to it. 3 The azan time listed in the online azan app can benefit the Jamath members to know when the timings are during normal days and also during Ramadan for fasting 4 People nowadays carry their phones wherever they go. So having Azan come on the phone can motivate them and also people around them to listen to Azan and respond. Even if one person prays on time using this way of sending azan, I hope our effort would be appreciated at Allah's side. 5 Online Azan can be used instead of using Alarm to wakeup as a live Azan can replace an alarm which in most cases are music which is not allowed for practising muslims.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Online Azan at 5.0 against Prayerly's 4.5. Prayerly's advantage is ratings volume (56 vs 8) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
