Sumut vs Da'em

Sumut (suh-MOOT) shows you what you need, the moment you need it. The next prayer. The time remaining. The direction to face. Nothing more. It runs entirely on your device. No account. No sign-in. No connection required. Your location is used to calculate prayer times and find the Qibla — and it never leaves your device. There are no ads. There is nothing to buy. Sumut does its work in the background and stays out of your way. Prayer times, computed for where you are: Five daily prayers and sunrise, calculated precisely for your location. Choose from thirteen calculation methods, or let Sumut pick the right one for your country. Set your madhab. Save multiple cities. A live countdown shows the time to the next prayer at a glance. Quiet, when you want it: Notifications for each prayer, with your choice of adhan and haptics. A dedicated Fajr alarm for the prayer that matters most to wake for. A reminder a few minutes ahead, so you're never caught off guard. The direction to face: A live Qibla compass points to Makkah, with bearing and distance. Find nearby mosques when you need them. The Hijri month, at a glance: A full Hijri calendar beside the Gregorian one. Islamic occasions, with reminders you can add to your calendar. The sky, honestly rendered: Watch the sun trace its path from Fajr to Isha on an astrolabe — the instrument Muslim astronomers used for a thousand years to read the sky and find their direction. See the moon as it is tonight, with phase, illumination, and the White Days ahead. Made for every screen: A native Apple Watch app, with the astrolabe on your wrist and the next prayer a glance away. Widgets and complications for your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and watch face. Siri knows your next prayer, your Qibla, and today's date. Yours: English, Arabic, Indonesian and Turkish with full right-to-left support. Three themes, including a living sky that follows the real sun through the day. Western or Eastern-Arabic numerals. Your city and preferences sync privately across your devices through iCloud. Sumut asks nothing of you. It simply does its work.

Da'em asks one question, at the moment it matters: did you pray? When a prayer's window opens, a Time-Sensitive reminder arrives with two buttons — "I prayed" and "Not yet". Answer it straight from the Lock Screen. No unlocking, no opening the app, nothing to type. If you're not ready, "Not yet" brings the question back in a few minutes. If the window is closing, a last call tells you plainly how much time is left — and Fajr's names the sunrise, because that is the deadline that actually matters. GENTLE, HONEST GRADING • Prayed early in the window is green. Prayed later is yellow. Both count. • A window that closed unanswered is red — information, never a lecture — and you can still record it as qada. • Your day is one number out of five, and a ring that fills as it goes. A RECORD YOU CAN CORRECT • Today: the prayer that's open now, a live countdown, and the five rows of the day. • History: the week as dots, the month as a heatmap, any day openable down to its five prayers. • Insights: current and longest streak, on-time rate, which prayer is hardest for you, how late you tend to be, and your qada tally. • Anything can be edited later. Life happens away from the phone, and a record you can't correct is a record you stop trusting. BUILT AROUND THE REMINDER • Choose how insistent it is — Gentle, Standard or Persistent — for all five prayers or one at a time. • An optional quiet heads-up before the time, so you can finish what you're doing and pray at the start of the window. • Snooze from 1 to 30 minutes. Short windows compress the ladder automatically instead of flooding you. • Alert tones are the app's own: a short glass motif, and a longer one for when the phone is across the room. • A health check that names the exact iOS switch holding reminders back, and takes you to it. • Answers work from your Apple Watch too, when iOS mirrors the notification to your wrist. MATCH YOUR MOSQUE • Calculation method, madhab for Asr, and a high-latitude rule. • Nudge any prayer up to 30 minutes either way so the app agrees with the times you actually hear. Sunrise is astronomy, not an announcement, so it never moves — the Fajr window still ends exactly at sunrise. PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION • No account. No server. No analytics. No ads. • The app makes no network calls at all. Put the phone in Airplane Mode and nothing changes. • Your record lives in one file on this iPhone. Export it as CSV whenever you like, or erase everything in two taps. WHAT IT ISN'T No subscription. No leaderboard. No streak guilt, no sad animations, no "you broke the chain". It does one job: get you to the prayer while its window is still open. English and Arabic, with full right-to-left layout. Designed for iOS 26.
