Qiyam, build 9

Android APK, build 9 (version 1.0.0, versionCode 9). Installs over earlier builds and keeps your settings.

The app is now called Qiyam (قيام). Your home screen, the widget and the welcome screen all show the new name. Nothing else changes — your settings, prayer log, bookmarks and memorisation progress are all kept.

Install: download qiyam-build9.apk on the phone, open it, and allow installing from this source if Android asks.

Prayer Reminders, build 8

Android APK, build 8 (version 1.0.0, versionCode 8). Installs over earlier builds and keeps your settings.

New in this build

• Nicer Iqamah reminder sound. Choose in Settings → Alert style → Reminder sound:
  • Takbir (default): the opening "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar" from the app's Adhan.
  • Chime: a soft singing-bowl chime.
    Ringtone repeats it for 45 seconds; Alarm plays it once. "Send a test reminder" plays your choice.
• Adhan not playing? If Android has this app's "Adhan" notifications switched off (easily done by long-pressing a notification), the app now says so in Settings and on Home, with a button that opens that exact setting. "Play the Adhan now" also tells you instead of doing nothing.

Install: download prayer-reminders-build8.apk on the phone, open it, and allow installing from this source if Android asks.

Prayer Reminders, build 7

Android APK, build 7 (version 1.0.0, versionCode 7). Installs over earlier builds and keeps your settings.

Fixes since build 6

• Memorise: the first ayah could show cut short in IndoPak script; it now shows in full.
• Memorise: a message and "Try again" button when the IndoPak font can't download (needs internet once).
• Memorise: the repetition counter now follows Settings → Text size.
• At Extra large text, long Arabic surah names and the text-size buttons no longer get cut off.
• Smoother, more reliable screen-transition direction.
