## Description

Dawn is an elegant, easy-to-use app that helps Bahá'í followers meet daily obligations: reading the Writings, reciting Obligatory Prayers, and reciting the Greatest Name. It curates a daily selection of Writings from the Báb or Bahá’u’lláh, with brief excerpts and links to the authorized Bahá'í Reference Library for deeper study. Other features include a Qiblih compass, a 95 Alláh-u-Abhá counter, the Badí Calendar, and local sunrise/sunset times to guide your daily practice.

Daily reminders can be set for dawn, noon, sunset, or midnight, with gentle haptic feedback and smooth transitions. The app also supports bookmarking, sharing, and easy access to references, making Dawn a practical companion for study and devotion anywhere you are.

## Review summary

Users praise Dawn for its beautiful, intuitive design and all-in-one functionality (writings, prayers, compass, 95 counter, calendar) with direct source links, plus customization like greetings and dark mode. However, recurring concerns include the compass/Qiblih accuracy (east-pointing or confusing pointer) and requests for enhancements such as reminders and a library of full texts. The app generally delivers a spiritual, streamlined experience but could improve in navigation feedback and content breadth. Some users noted occasional glitches and outdated quotes, but overall sentiment is positive.

### Pros

- Beautiful, intuitive design and UI/UX that feel calm and prayer-friendly.
- All-in-one tool: prayers/writings, compass/Qiblih, 95 counter, calendar, and direct source links.
- Contextual daily quotations with links to official references.
- Personalization features like custom greetings and other thoughtful touches.
- Dark mode and overall polished, accessible experience.

### Cons

- Compass/Qiblih accuracy issues (east-pointing or confusing movement).
- Requests for reminders/notification features (sunset timing and other reminders).
- Desire for a library of full texts (e.g., Hidden Words, Gleanings) to be included.
