Praydo provides accurate prayer times for all six daily prayers: Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha. The app calculates prayer times based on your location and displays them with a real-time countdown to the next prayer.

​
Prayer Times Display

The main dashboard shows all your enabled prayer times in a clean, easy-to-read format:
  • Next Prayer Card: A large display showing the upcoming prayer with a countdown timer in hours, minutes, and seconds
  • Prayer Timeline: A horizontal timeline at the bottom showing all enabled prayers for the day
  • Current Prayer Highlight: The next prayer is automatically highlighted with a pulsing indicator

​
Real-Time Countdown

The app features a live countdown timer that shows the exact time remaining until the next prayer: 
02:34:15
The countdown is displayed in HH:MM:SS format and updates every second. When all prayers for the current day have passed, the countdown automatically switches to show the time until the first prayer of the next day (typically Fajr).
The countdown timer runs continuously in the background, ensuring you always have an accurate time remaining until the next prayer.

Prayer times are automatically recalculated whenever you change your location, calculation method, or any adjustment settings.

​
How Prayer Times are Calculated

The app calculates prayer times based on three key factors:
  1. Your Location: Latitude and longitude coordinates
  2. Current Date: The Gregorian date for which to calculate times
  3. Calculation Method: Predefined methods (like MWL, ISNA, Egypt, Makkah) or custom settings
The PrayerManager automatically:
  • Calculates today’s prayer times
  • Determines the next upcoming prayer
  • Provides tomorrow’s times when needed for overnight countdown
  • Updates the countdown every second

​
Islamic Date Display

In addition to prayer times, the main dashboard displays the current Islamic (Hijri) date using the Tabby AI Hijri Converter. This helps you keep track of important Islamic dates and events alongside your daily prayers.
