Two reminders for every prayer
Azan reminder: plays the azan ahead of each prayer, so you have time to make wudu and leave.- Jamaat reminder: a short alert a few minutes before the congregation starts.
- Jumma reminders on Friday, including when the khutbah is about to begin.
Why masjid-based alerts are better
An azan alarm built only on calculated prayer times can't tell you when your masjid prays. Masjid Nearby times its reminders to the jamaat schedule your home masjid publishes, and adjusts automatically when the masjid changes it.
Set it up in a minute
- Install Masjid Nearby and allow notifications.
- Find your masjid on the map and set it as your home masjid.
- Turn on azan and jamaat reminders. You can switch each one off at any time.
Frequently asked questions
Does the app play the full azan?
The app plays an azan sound with the azan reminder. On iPhone, notification sounds are limited by iOS to 30 seconds.
Can I turn off the azan sound but keep jamaat reminders?
Yes. Azan and jamaat reminders are separate settings.
What happens if my masjid changes its times?
The app picks up the new times as soon as the masjid saves them, and your reminders move with them.
