Prayer times & Qibla. Nothing else.

Kiblat answers exactly two questions: when is the next prayer, and which way is Makkah. Then it gets out of your way.

The honest comparison

You wanted prayer times. You got a shopping mall.

Many prayer apps started simple, too. Then came the ads, the premium tiers, the feeds, and notifications about everything except prayer. Along the way, your location became something to sell. We built the opposite.

The typical prayer app

  • Banner and video ads between you and Fajr
  • A subscription to remove what shouldn't be there
  • Account required, data collected
  • Location shared with ad and analytics partners
  • Feeds, streaks, quizzes, stores
  • Hundreds of megabytes for five prayers a day

Kiblat

  • Zero ads. There is nowhere to put one
  • Free. No tiers, no upsells
  • No account. We don't know who you are
  • Your location is never sent to us
  • One screen: times, countdown, compass
  • Tiny, instant, works offline

Your prayer schedule is between you and Allah, not you, an ad network, and a data broker. Times and direction are calculated on your device with standard astronomical formulas. We have no server to send anything to.

What's inside

Small on purpose.

Accurate prayer times

Fajr through Isha, computed on your device with the method your community uses: MWL, Umm al-Qura, ISNA, Egypt, Karachi or Kemenag.

Live Qibla compass

A compass rose with a live needle pointing to the Kaaba, plus the exact bearing from true north if you prefer numbers.

Countdown to the next prayer

One glance tells you what's next and how long you have, updated every second.

Optional reminders

A gentle alert when a prayer time starts, and another before it runs out. Off until you turn them on, and only ever about prayer.

Hijri date

Today's Islamic date (Umm al-Qura calendar) right under the Gregorian one.

Any city, three languages

Use your location or search any city; times follow its time zone. The app speaks English, Bahasa Indonesia and Japanese.

Our whole philosophy

An app you open, read, and close.

No streaks to keep. No feed to scroll. No notifications unless you ask for them. Kiblat respects your time the way a good tool should: there when you need it, silent when you don't.

So what's in it for us?

Honestly, nothing. There is no business model, and that's the point. If Kiblat helps you pray on time, keep us in your du'a.
