Hayya is a quiet, private salah companion for iPhone. It keeps your prayer times, pauses the scroll when the adhan calls, and never makes you feel small for starting over.
Free to downloadNo adsLocation stays on your phone
Almost nobody decides to stop praying. It happens quietly. A Fajr you slept through. A Dhuhr lost to a meeting. A phone that's always closer than the prayer mat.
Then one day it's been months, and coming back feels heavier than it should.
Hayya was made for coming back.
Sound familiar?
Five moments that pull us away from salah.
If one of these is you, you're exactly who Hayya is for. Here's what the app does in each of them.
It's been a while
You used to pray all five. Somewhere between work and everything else, it became Jumuʿah, then Eid.
Start with one prayer. Every salah you log earns Hasanat, and your streak begins with the first one. The Qada tracker lets you make up the past at your own pace, one prayer at a time.
22:14 · Isha
The adhan went off twenty minutes ago. You were going to pray right after this video.
Salah Lock pauses the apps you choose when the prayer window opens. Log the prayer and they're back.
07:02 · After sunrise
You slept through Fajr again, and now Dhuhr feels pointless.
Tawbah Tokens protect your streak once a week. A missed prayer goes on your Qada list instead of wiping out a good month.
Seven days
Your period ends, and your streak app tells you that you failed for a week.
Haid Mode quietly pauses your streak. No penalty, no label, and Salah Lock steps aside too. Nothing leaves your phone.
New to salah
You took your shahada last year, and you still aren't sure what you're saying in sujood.
Learn to Pray walks through all nine stages, Niyyah to Tasleem, in Arabic, transliteration and meaning. A 12-lesson Revert Journey covers wudu and each prayer.
“Say: O My servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allah.”
Surah Az-Zumar · 39:53
This ayah is the brief behind every screen in Hayya. There are no guilt notifications and no red numbers. A missed prayer is something to make up, not a reason to give up.

Privacy
Your prayers are between you and Allah. We kept it that way.
Some prayer apps have been caught selling their users' locations to data brokers. Hayya works out your prayer times and Qibla on the phone itself, so your location never needs to go anywhere.
Your location stays on your iPhone.It's used to calculate prayer times and Qibla, and it's never sent to a server or stored anywhere else.
Your prayer life isn't in our database.Your log, streaks, qada and private notes live on your device. Delete the app and they're gone.
No ads, ever.There are no advertising or tracking SDKs in the app. Hayya is paid for by Pro subscribers.
Analytics only if you say yes.Anonymous usage stats are off unless you turn them on. They never include your prayers or your location, and they're never sold.
Pricing
Free to pray. Pro if you want more.
Everything you need to pray on time is free. Pro adds Salah Lock and deeper reflection, and it's what keeps Hayya free of ads.
A Hayya Pro feature. You pick the apps that distract you, and Hayya pauses them when each prayer window opens. The pause lifts the moment you log that prayer. It follows your real prayer times automatically, your app selection never leaves your phone, and an Emergency Dismiss option is always available. See how it works.
What happens to my streak if I miss a prayer?
You get one Tawbah Token each week, which protects your streak when life gets in the way. Missed prayers go on your Qada list so you can make them up at your own pace. Hayya never sends guilt notifications.
How does Hayya calculate prayer times?
On your iPhone, using one of five methods: Muslim World League, ISNA, Egyptian General Authority, University of Islamic Sciences Karachi, or Umm al-Qura. You can choose Shafi'i or Hanafi Asr timing and adjust any prayer by up to five minutes to match your local mosque. Your location is never sent to a server.
What is Haid Mode?
A private toggle that pauses your streak during menstruation. There is no penalty and no label, Salah Lock steps aside, and nothing is shared beyond your own device. It's off by default.
Does Hayya collect any data?
Your prayers, streaks, notes and location stay on your phone. Hayya shows no ads and contains no advertising or tracking SDKs. Anonymous usage analytics are off unless you choose to turn them on, and they never include your prayers or location. Subscriptions are handled by Apple and RevenueCat. The privacy policy has the details.
Is Hayya on Android?
Not yet. Hayya is iPhone-only for now. If you'd like an Android version, email [email protected]. We count every request.
