Teknawi is the all-in-one app for students at Jordan University of Science and Technology, built by a JUST student for JUST students. It is free, and a few ads from Google help keep it that way. YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE - A home that draws today as a clock face: lectures, exams, tasks and prayer times on one dial. - Your next lecture with its room and the walk to it, and one tap to be guided there. - Your GPA, the next prayer and the weather in three quick rings. THE JUST CAMPUS IN 3D - Every building, faculty wing, hall, car park and street, modelled to scale. - Step-by-step walking directions to any building or classroom, with the floor and the entrance side. - A route to your next lecture straight from your timetable, and a walk mode to explore the campus. - Free rooms now: find an empty classroom to study in. REGISTRATION AND PLANNING - Portal sync: bring your courses, transcript, study plan and absences in from the university portal. - Schedule Builder: set your rules and priorities and get timetables that suit you, not just ones that do not clash. - Section Radar: live seat counts, and an alert when a seat opens. - Your study plan as a tree of prerequisites, and an elective exchange that shows which electives count for you. - Graduation forecast: when you will finish and what to take next. - Academic standing: where you stand against the probation rules, with the regulation article behind every number, and help writing your appeal letter. AI STUDY TOOLS - Lecture notes: record a lecture and get notes, key points and a summary. - Quizzes from your notes, and a chat to ask about them. - Board scanner: photograph a whiteboard and get organized notes. - An AI study planner and the Teknawi assistant.

MAKE IT YOURS - 10 themes in light and dark, and full Arabic and English. - Privacy mode to hide your GPA, and an app lock. ABOUT ADS - Teknawi shows a few ads from Google: a banner on News, Quick Links and the Academic Calendar, an occasional full-screen ad at a natural break, such as going back from a news page or a study material, and sometimes one when you come back to the app. - Teknawi staff accounts and holders of the gold VIP badge use the app with ads removed. - If you bought Remove Ads before, ads stay removed for you. If they still show, for example on a new device, tap Restore Remove Ads under Privacy in the app's Settings. - Teknawi asks before ads can use tracking, and you can change your answer any time in your device's Settings. Where your region requires consent for ads, Ad privacy choices are under Privacy in the app's Settings. Built with love for JUST students since 2019.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Waino at none against Teknawi's shown. Teknawi's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
