The app works perfectly out at sea as long as you have internet connection. The only issue I have is not being able to delete multiple saved prayer timing at once. If I don't do it for a number of days, I am stuck performing multiple deletes whereas one delete for all should be an option!

User Reviews
Sky Prayers is praised for its accurate moon sighting-based prayer times, offline usability especially during flights or at sea, and simple clean interface. However, multiple users report issues with location updates and adding locations, app crashes when changing prayer calculation methods, inconsistent Azan notifications, and lack of effective widgets on certain devices. Users also desire features like batch deletion of saved timings and more customizable notification options. Overall, the app is valued for accuracy and functionality but requires fixes in stability and user interface features.
Pros
- Accurate prayer times based on moon sighting calculations appreciated by users.
- Offline maps and ability to use app at sea or during flights without network connection.
- Simple, clean, and straightforward user interface with clear display of prayer times.
- No ads and minimal permissions enhance user experience.
- Includes multiple Azan sounds and customizable prayer calculation methods.
Cons
- Location updating issues: app doesn't update location automatically or add multiple locations reliably.
- App crashes or shuts down when changing calculation methods on some devices.
- Notification issues: Azan notifications sometimes don't play on time or stop working until toggled off and on again.
- Limited or non-functional widgets, especially on some devices like Samsung, preventing home screen prayer time display.
- Lack of batch delete for saved prayer timings, causing inconvenience in managing saved data.
Recent reviews
I am frequent flyer and this app is super helpful for me to check praying time, I wish the offline map could be a bit more detailled when zoomed in, most of the time I have to guess the location based on airplane's flight map view and and the app's map. Perhaps the app file size would increase for the detailled map but there could be download choice in settings.
