Free app that shows daily prayer times, offers customizable alerts, a Qibla compass and a Hijri calendar based on your location.
What is Prayer Times, Azan, Qibla?
Prayer Times, Azan, Qibla is a free Android application developed by Kodelokus Cipta Aplikasi. It helps Muslims keep track of the five daily prayers by providing accurate times calculated from the user’s current location. In addition to prayer schedules, the app includes a Qibla direction finder and a Hijri calendar for easy reference.
Main features
- Location‑based prayer times – The app determines your position and calculates the five daily prayer times automatically.
- Customizable notifications – Choose between a traditional Azan sound or a simple reminder notification to alert you before each prayer.
- Qibla compass – A built‑in compass points toward the Kaaba, helping you find the correct direction for prayer wherever you are.
- Hijri calendar – View the Islamic lunar calendar alongside the Gregorian dates for quick reference to important dates.
- Countdown display – A visual countdown shows how much time remains until the next prayer, using color cues for easy recognition.
How it works
When you first open the app, it requests permission to access your device’s location. Using that data, it selects an appropriate calculation method for your region and generates the daily prayer schedule. You can later adjust the calculation method manually if you prefer a different convention.
Practical uses
- Set up reminders that suit your routine – whether you prefer the call to prayer sound or a silent notification.
- Use the Qibla compass when traveling or when you are unsure of the direction of the Kaaba.
- Check the Hijri date to plan for Ramadan, Eid and other Islamic events.
