Why we built it
NamazNearBy is an app we build and run ourselves, on Android and iOS.

The challenge

Prayer apps calculate times from astronomy, but each congregation keeps its own iqamah time, so people arrive late or at the wrong mosque.

The solution

Mosque listings with the times each congregation actually keeps, and routing that finds a congregation you can still reach on foot or by car when you have missed one.

What it shows

  • Shows the iqamah time each mosque keeps, not a calculated estimate.
  • Reroutes you to a congregation you can still reach.
  • Available on Android and iOS.
All work

Building something like NamazNearBy?

No pitch deck. An engineer, and a straight answer.
