## Description

Sky Prayers is a reliable Chrome extension designed for Muslim travelers and daily practitioners seeking accurate prayer times and Qibla direction. Powered by the unique moonsighting.com algorithm, it calculates prayer times with precision by adjusting sun angles based on time and location, unlike conventional fixed-angle methods. 

The extension features offline maps with multiple zoom levels, ensuring you can find your location and Qibla direction even without internet connectivity — ideal for flights, remote deserts, or oceans. It provides customizable prayer notifications, supports various calculation methods including the Hashimi method for Syrian cities, and offers widgets for quick glance at upcoming prayers. Sky Prayers seamlessly switches between GPS detection and offline mode, making it an essential tool for Muslim users worldwide.
