Why does Arafah ask for my location?
Arafah uses one location fix to calculate prayer times and Qibla on your iPhone and to search Apple Maps for nearby mosques. The developer does not receive your location.
Arafah support
Arafah is still preparing for its first App Store release. The answers below cover the current app and will grow with real support needs after launch.
Before launch
Arafah is not available to download until its verified App Store listing is ready. Questions already have a home: write to salam@getarafah.com or use the private contact form below.
Arafah uses one location fix to calculate prayer times and Qibla on your iPhone and to search Apple Maps for nearby mosques. The developer does not receive your location.
Its core features do. Prayer calculations, Quran and recitation, hadith, duas, tasbih, Qibla, and your local records do not depend on an Arafah server. Nearby-mosque search and fresh zakat market prices require a connection.
Open Arafah, go to More → Settings → Prayer Calculation. You can change the calculation method, Asr school, high-latitude rule when relevant, and per-prayer adjustments.
Check notification permission and sound settings for Arafah in iOS Settings, confirm the individual prayer’s adhan setting in Arafah, and make sure the iPhone is not muted. iOS mute and Focus settings are respected.
Apple manages recurring purchases. In Arafah, open Support Arafah and choose Manage Subscription, or use iOS Settings → your Apple Account → Subscriptions.
Not yet. The first release is still being prepared for the App Store. This page will be updated when a verified download is available.
