Nafs app — prayer times screen

Be honest.

Salah time arrives. You tell yourself just five more minutes. The scroll doesn't stop. You look up, and the prayer has passed.

“By Time, indeed mankind is in loss — except those who believe and do righteous deeds.”Surah Al-Asr, 103:1-3

نَفْس

an-nafs al-ammārah

The commanding self. The part that pulls toward distraction, delay, and desire. Islam named this struggle long before the scroll existed.

Three steps to guarding your nafs

01

Choose your apps

Which apps pull you away when it matters most? Select them. Nafs will pause them when salah begins.

02

Auto-blocks at adhan

When it's time to pray, your chosen apps pause automatically. No reminders, no willpower required.

03

Everything returns

When the window ends, everything goes back to normal. Simple. Intentional. Controlled by you.

The only salah app you need. Prayer times, App Blocks, Qibla and more.

Prayer Reminders

A gentle notification before each prayer. Fully customizable for all 5 daily prayers.

The problem isn't your faith. It's friction.

Prayer times arrive quietly. Apps arrive loudly.

Nafs doesn't fight with discipline. It wins with delay.

“This app doesn't force you to pray. It doesn't track you. It doesn't judge you. It doesn't guilt you. It simply creates a boundary when prayer time enters.”

Rated 5 stars by early users

I'd tell myself one more reel then pray. That one reel turned into 40 minutes every single time. This app fixed that without me having to fight myself. And it's free which honestly still surprises me.

I work in tech and my phone is always in my hand. Dhuhr used to just pass me by. Now my apps lock and I actually get up and pray. No excuses left.

I set Nafs up on my kids tablets to block YouTube and games during prayer times. They actually started looking forward to going to the masjid. I did not expect that at all.
