What is Prayer Times - Qibla & Salah?
Prayer Times - Qibla & Salah is a free Android application developed by ZeeDev Islam. It helps users keep track of the five daily prayers, locate the Qibla direction, and receive timely reminders. The app is designed for Muslims who want a simple, offline‑capable tool for managing their worship schedule.
Main features
- Accurate prayer times – Calculates Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha based on your location.
- Qibla compass – Provides a stable, easy‑to‑read direction to the Kaaba.
- Customizable notifications – Set alerts before each prayer, choose from built‑in adhan sounds or use your own audio files.
- Widget support – Add a home‑screen widget that shows the next prayer and remaining time.
- Location options – Choose a city, tap a map, or let the app use your device’s GPS. All data can be stored locally for offline use.

How it works
When you first open the app, you can set your location manually or allow the app to detect it automatically. The built‑in calculation engine then generates the prayer schedule for the current day and future dates. The Qibla compass uses the device’s sensors to point toward Mecca, updating as you move.
Practical uses

- Customize reminder tones to match personal preference or local tradition.
- Place a widget on your home screen for constant visibility.
