A calm, private companion for your five daily prayers.
Quietly know where you are in the day, face the Qibla with confidence, and keep a private record for yourself — without accounts, ads, tracking, or noise.
Get it on Google PlayWhy it exists
Prayer is a moment to step away from the noise. Many apps built around it have grown busier over time — more to sign into, more to notice, more happening quietly in the background.
Salah Now was made for the opposite reason. It does a few things with care — accurate times, an honest Qibla, the Qur’an in Arabic, gentle reminders, and a private record kept only for you — and then it steps back. The calm is the point.
Thirty seconds of the app. Silent, and hosted here — nothing is loaded from anywhere else.
Now
Open the app and the current prayer is simply there — its name, how long it has been, and what comes next. The arc of the day rests above it, calm and unhurried.
No setup and no noise. Just the time, the prayer, and room to breathe.
Qibla
The Qibla is drawn from a verified location fix, and the app tells you plainly when the reading is steady. It stays honest about accuracy, and never guesses.
Compass trusted — hold the phone flat and turn until the arrow points straight up.
Record
Mark prayers for yourself and look back gently over the weeks and months. Nothing here is gamified or shared — it is a private record, kept only for you.
Quietly looking back — nothing is shared, nothing is ranked, nothing is measured against anyone.
The Qur’an
All 114 surahs and 6,236 verses, on your phone — no download, no connection, nothing to sign into. Four typefaces to read in, your place kept for you, and every ayah marked with the true rosette.
Tanzil’s Uthmani edition, verified character by character against its published source.
Reminders
Reminders arrive calmly when a prayer begins, and then they leave you alone. No guilt and no pressure — only a gentle nudge you can shape to suit you.
Twelve calculation methods, both Asr opinions, and sunrise — so you can see when Fajr’s window closes. Worked out on your phone, adjustable minute by minute to match your masjid, and on your home screen as a widget with a live countdown.
Before a prayer, when it begins, and before Fajr ends at sunrise — sound or vibration only, and you choose which prayers. A daily Quran reminder after Maghrib, if you want one. Your phone’s own notification sound, never one we chose for you.
A direction taken from a verified fix, corrected for magnetic declination — and it points only when the reading can be trusted.
What it leaves out
Salah Now is designed to support prayer, not compete for attention.
No sign-up process. Open the app and use it.
No advertising, promotions, or sponsored content.
No analytics designed to monitor your religious activity.
No leaderboards, feeds, or sharing — your reflection is private, and never ranked against anyone.
Privacy
Salah Now holds no internet permission at all. Not restricted, not switched off — the permission is simply not in the app, so nothing you record can leave your phone. You do not have to take that on trust: Android shows every app’s permissions on its Play listing, before you install.
Made with care
Salah Now is a simple, dependable companion for daily prayer. Free, with no ads and no purchases — and it stays that way. Nothing more, and nothing less.
