niyyah: your salah comes first "When the prayers are over, remember Allah—whether you are standing, sitting, or lying down. But when you are secure, establish regular prayers. Indeed, performing prayers is a duty on the believers at the appointed times." — Quran 4:103 Start with a 3-day free trial — subscribe to unlock app blocking, prayer times, and more. Your phone buzzes. Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat—all pulling you away from what matters most. You tell yourself you'll pray after "just one quick check." But one scroll becomes ten minutes, and suddenly Dhuhr has passed. Niyyah changes that. Before you can open the apps you've chosen to block, you pause, pray, and then unlock. It's a simple screen time blocker built for Muslims who want to prioritize Allah over algorithms. HOW IT WORKS: • Choose which apps distract you most • When you try to open them, Niyyah gently reminds you to pray first • Complete your salah, mark it as done • Apps unlock—you move forward with intention and barakah BUILT FOR YOUR SALAH: Other apps spend billions making you addicted. We use that same psychology to protect your prayer. They fight for your attention. We fight for your akhirah. FEATURES THAT MATTER • App Blocking — Stop the scroll. Create sacred space for prayer. • Prayer Time Tracking — Never miss another salah with accurate times based on your location • Streak Tracking — Watch your consistency grow day by day • Prayer Journey Analytics — See which prayers you're crushing and which need focus • Qibla Compass — Always know which direction to face • Block Apps Anytime — Lock distracting apps as many times as you need throughout the day • Beautiful Islamic Design — An interface that reflects the beauty of your deen All features require an active subscription PERFECT FOR • Building an unshakeable daily prayer habit • Reducing screen time without deleting every app • Strengthening your connection with the Quran and Sunnah • Protecting your salah from digital distractions • Reclaiming your time for what truly matters TRACK YOUR GROWTH See your prayer history at a glance. Build your streak day by day. Know exactly where you stand with each of your five daily prayers. Watch your consistency transform from scattered to solid. SHARE THE REWARD "Whoever guides someone to goodness will have a reward like the one who did it." — Sahih Muslim Invite friends with your referral code and earn hasanat every time they pray. GIVING BACK 15% of all proceeds support families in Gaza. Your subscription doesn't just strengthen your salah—it helps those in need. Prophet Muhammad said: "The first matter that the slave will be brought to account for on the Day of Judgment is the prayer." Niyyah isn't just another productivity app. It's a faith-first focus tool that turns screen time into salah time, so you actually grow closer to Allah in the middle of your busy digital life.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Vidalarm at none against Niyyah's 5. Vidalarm also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). Niyyah's advantage is device support. On price there is nothing between them.
