How a morning goes
Most alarms stop at the noise. FajrBuddy starts the night before and stays with you until the prayer is done.
Set your intention for Fajr and tick off a short wind-down: get to bed on time, ease off the caffeine. Small habits, so the morning starts from a better place than three hours of scrolling.
The alarm fires before Fajr and keeps going. To stop it you shake your phone to wake your buddy, not tap something you won't remember. Snooze is there, but only a few times, and never past the window.
Tick off wudu and Fajr, and the morning closes with your streak and a buddy that is visibly pleased with you.
Everything in the app
The features that get you up, without the clutter.

Stop it by shaking your phone, not a half-asleep tap. Snooze never runs past the window.

Set your intention and tick off a short routine, so the morning starts the night before.

Every morning you make adds to your streak, so a missed one is impossible to ignore.

Your buddy grows from baby to adult, with milestones like First Light along the way.

All five prayers plus sunrise, worked out on your phone for wherever you are.

Thirteen calculation methods, each showing its Fajr time, so yours matches the one your mosque keeps.

Before you sign up
That is what reliable wake mode is for: the alarm is built to play through a locked or silenced phone, so a muted ringer will not let you sleep through Fajr. Two honest caveats: it uses a little extra battery overnight, and it cannot work if you force-quit the app before bed. The app says so plainly, and warns you if it thinks it has been closed.
It still rings. FajrBuddy shares audio rather than taking it over, so music or a podcast playing in the background will not stop the alarm.
Shake your phone until the bar fills. It is deliberately harder than a tap, because tapping is the thing you do in your sleep and do not remember. If you would rather not, you can switch shake-to-wake off in settings and confirm with a press instead.
They are worked out on your device from your location, and you can choose from thirteen calculation methods and both madhabs, so you can match whatever your local mosque uses.
Not yet. FajrBuddy is iPhone only for now, and needs iOS 17 or later.
Your prayer times are worked out on your phone, and your location is never sent to us. What does sync is only what is needed to bring your account and streak back on a new phone. You can download everything we hold, or delete your account outright, from inside the app. The privacy policy spells all of it out.
Tomorrow's Fajr is already on the way.
