Athan Pro: Muslim Prayer Times for PC and Mac

Software Reviews and Criticism

  Unacceptably Inaccurate

  I’ve seen many people complain that the timings were inaccurate before installing this app. I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt because I really like your Quran Pro app. However, when I first installed the app, I noticed that the most crucial prayers for fasting, fajir and maghrib, were off by 1-2 minutes. The other day I noticed that asr prayer was off by a total of 4 minutes. And now, fajir prayer is off by TEN minutes. This is just unacceptable. It’s a shame because the app’s design and interface is really good. However, looks aren’t everything. The core function of the app is completely off. This is why I’m giving this one star. I regret buying premium, because I will be uninstalling this app. Please use the money I paid, and that many others have probably paid, to fix this problem. If this issue is fixed, I’d gladly reinstall the app again. UPDATE: Just reopened the app before uninstalling, and it updated the prayer times so fajir prayer is now off by one minute instead of ten. However, still incorrect and I find it unreliable. It shouldn’t go off by 10 minutes because I haven’t opened the app in a couple of weeks. And it’s not correct in the first place.

  Salam , I thank you so much for making a great application to remind me of my prayers and I’ve been doing so good for the last year and a half and I loved it I was so glad that there is finally application I can hear the prayer call info but now since I reinstall iOS because a problem I had with my phone and since I bought another phone max X and the Athan won’t come up in full !!! I keep enabling the option for full Athan and when I go back to setting it keeps turning off !! now the Athan don’t come for five seconds and it stop, that’s it,, I’ve been sending you trying to get hold of you guys but no one is responding yet I understand if you’re busy but I hope you guys fix it as soon as possible because I been missing a lots of prayers. Please and I will change my review as soon as you fix it just to get your attention not intending to hurt your name insha’a Allah. Thank you

  Good. Excessive costs, questionable design choices.

  This is a very good app. It’s the most beautifully designed Islamic app and well maintained. The different theme options, dark mode, Hadith of the day, picture of the day are all lovely options. The one thing that kind of ruins the app for me is the pricing. Every few months there seems to be some new feature with a new higher pricing, I’ve already paid almost twenty dollars for this app. That’s just too much. Oddly, I’d prefer that the people developing this app just do a monthly $1 or $2 per month charge and provide all the features instead of adding some new feature package that is for a larger amount. The other issue I have is the app ringtones. There isn’t a simple ringtone like the iPhones default Tri-Tone. Everything is either long Athans or ringtones that just go on too long. Both are not helpful for the brothers and sisters who are in non-Muslim countries and don’t want the Athan playing loudly as their notification tone.

  no that good/bad

  “no power but with Almighty Allah”, I wish you guys-ourselves included- guidance from Allah. We all want to make money but only in a halal manner, you guys did okay and it’s a very good app but you ruined everything by falling so much in the love of money. So, by doing this, you are reflecting a bad image about a muslim. Not that a muslim can’t be greedy but, he does not lie about it. A year ago I updated the version and you guys said that I will be able to do everything. Suddenly, the app stoped giving full azan, your comment on that was that Microsoft limited the notification time to five secnds. Latter on, you guys put more restrictions and asked for upgrade which was even more, and that was contradicting the first-time upgrading rules. At the end, please don’t make the love of this world and the love of money covers thyself eyes, ears and heart. I want to give this app one more chance even though it’s not letting me even update to the $7.99 version which was the first update. you guys are trying to beat billgates through this app trade.

  MashaAllah!

  Great app, I love the widgets, the effects, and the level of customization. The support page is really helpful for basic things. The only issues I’ve noticed that are quite irksome but not dealbreakers are: 1) the full adhan option will interrupt itself four-five times every few seconds so it cuts off in the middle of an Allahu Akbar (I’ve tried resetting my notifications on both my phone and in the app to no avail). 2) It will not stay on Hanafi Jurisdiction, I change it every single day back to Hanafi when I receive a notification about an hour earlier for Asr Salah. I like to listen to the adhan at this time and tend to pray sooner so hearing it at the adhan at an earlier time really makes me feel like I’m neglecting my salah and causes a lot of anxiety. 3) The option to have the app display a black screen for when your phone is in DND (do not disturb mode) so the adhan for Fajr will still play does not work. 4) Small beans stuff: Sometimes the app doesn’t display a notification even if the volume is on on the device. The “contact us” button doesn’t work, the “rate us” button doesn’t work. Again MashaAllah it’s an amazing app and I’m happy to support the team but issue #2 is pretty major for me ☹️
