The Problem

Most Islamic apps try to do everything and end up doing nothing well. They're cluttered with ads, request unnecessary permissions, and bundle features that feel like afterthoughts. For something Muslims use multiple times a day, the experience should be fast, reliable, and distraction-free.

What We Built

A focused mobile app that does four things exceptionally well.

Salati App

Prayer times with multiple calculation methods, location-aware accuracy, and notifications that actually work. Qibla compass that works offline using device sensors — no internet needed. Athkar (daily remembrances) with Arabic text, transliterations, and a tap counter to track progress. Quran reader with clean typography and audio recitation.

Privacy is a core principle, not a marketing checkbox. Location data is used only for prayer times and Qibla direction — nothing else is collected, stored, or shared. There are no ads, no analytics trackers, and no data sold to third parties.

The app supports multiple languages and integrates the Hijri calendar for Islamic date awareness, including Ramadan-specific features.

The Impact

A fast, ad-free app that Muslims actually want to keep on their home screen. It does fewer things than the competition — and that's the point. Every feature works reliably, loads instantly, and respects the user's privacy.
