User Reviews

Pillars offers accurate, easy-to-read prayer times with an ad-free, privacy-conscious interface and useful free features like widgets and tracking. The main drawbacks are aggressive monetization (premium required for key features and persistent prompts), onboarding frictions (no skip option) and billing/data concerns, plus occasional reliability issues.
Pros
  • Accurate prayer times with a simple, readable interface.
  • Ad-free, privacy-friendly design that feels uncluttered.
  • Useful free features (widget, prayer tracker with streaks, Ramadan tracker) without paying.
  • Consistent reliability and a long-standing, well-regarded app in the Muslim community.
Cons
  • Aggressive monetization: core features (e.g., widgets, reminders) require a premium subscription and there are constant prompts to subscribe, with little ability to skip onboarding.
  • Billing and refund issues: unintentional charges, slow or unresponsive support, and concerns about charge transparency.
  • Data collection before paying: users feel data is collected before any disclosure of paid model.
  • Poor onboarding experience: lengthy, non-skippable onboarding that frustrates users and even excludes some older users.
  • Reliability concerns: occasional bugs (e.g., notifications not firing ahead of prayer) and updates that hamper free access.

I have messaged the devs about several issues I’ve experienced and received absolutely 0 response. It seems they’ve neglected this app and do not care to improve it any further.
