My prayer is a beautiful app. It shows the prayer timings of your location. It has a wonderful interface it shows the Islamic date and then the prayer times. The app automatically updates the location so if you change your location you will still get the most authentic timings. I love this app for a number of reasons.
Notifications – My prayer app calculates the time remaining in the next prayer and notifies you for each prayer. You can set the notifications settings whether to turn them on or off. You can also set when to get these notifications for example if you want to be notified before the prayer time starts or after each prayer. You can also set different tones for notifications.
Silent – It can be really embarrassing when you’re in the Masjid and your phone starts to ring. In My Prayer app you can sync your prayer timings with your local Masjid and then the phone will be automatically switched to silent when you’re saying the prayer. This can be a really handy feature.
Widgets and Extension – My prayer app has 4 different widgets you can set them on your home-screen. The first two widgets are My Next Prayer. There are two depending on the size. This widget shows the time remaining till the next prayer. This can be really helpful.
The remaining two widgets show all of the prayer timings if you put them on your home-screen you can glance at the prayer timings whenever you need without turning on the app.
If you use dash clock on your lock screen on android 4.2 then you can use My Prayer’s dash clock extension and then you can see the time remaining till the next prayer on your lock-screen or on your daydream.
Compass – You can see the Qibla direction on your phone by My Prayer’s compass. My Prayer is a must have app for everyone.
