About Just Pray
Just Pray is a Muslim prayer tracker app designed to help Muslims build and maintain consistent salah habits. It is available on both iOS and Android, rated 4.9 stars with over 5,000 reviews, and has been downloaded more than 100,000 times since its launch in August 2025.
What Is Just Pray?
Just Pray is a prayer habit-building app for Muslims. Unlike all-in-one Islamic apps that bundle Quran reading, halal food finders, and Islamic calendars, Just Pray focuses entirely on one thing: helping you actually pray all five daily prayers consistently.
The app was created by Adam Masoud and built by Ihsan Studios FZ-LLC. It is free to download with no ads. A premium subscription unlocks advanced features.
Key Features
Prayer Focus Mode
Prayer Focus blocks distracting apps on your phone when it is time to pray. Instead of getting a notification and then scrolling through social media, Prayer Focus creates a barrier between you and your phone so you can focus on your salah. You choose which apps get blocked and can dismiss it if needed.
Garden of Deeds
The Garden of Deeds is a virtual spiritual garden that grows as you pray. Each completed prayer adds life to your garden -- flowers, trees, and greenery that visually represent your spiritual journey. Miss prayers and the garden reflects that too. It turns consistency into something you can see and feel proud of.
Prayer Circles
Prayer Circles let you connect with friends and family to track prayer progress together. You can see who prayed and gently hold each other accountable. It is not about judgment -- it is about community. Research shows that social accountability is one of the strongest drivers of habit formation.
Three Notifications Per Prayer
Just Pray sends three notifications for each of the five daily prayers: a heads-up before the prayer window begins, a notification at the actual prayer time, and a follow-up reminder if you have not logged it yet. This layered approach makes it significantly harder to accidentally miss a prayer.
Personal Prayer Journal
The built-in journal lets you write reflections after your prayers. You can record thoughts, spiritual experiences, and personal notes. Over time it becomes a meaningful record of your spiritual growth.
Prayer Statistics
Detailed statistics show your prayer consistency over days, weeks, and months. Track your streaks, see which prayers you tend to miss most, and monitor your progress over time. The data helps you understand your patterns and improve.
Qibla Finder
An accurate compass-based Qibla finder helps you locate the direction of prayer from anywhere in the world.
Period Mode
A dedicated mode for women during menstruation. When activated, prayers are automatically handled according to Islamic rulings so you do not lose your streak or progress.
Who Is Just Pray For?
Just Pray is built for any Muslim who wants to pray more consistently. It is especially popular with:
- Muslims who pray some prayers but want to pray all five: The habit-building tools, streaks, and Garden of Deeds help turn partial consistency into full consistency.
- Young Muslims: The modern design, gamification, and social features resonate with younger users who grew up with apps.
- New Muslims and converts: The step-by-step approach and supportive tools make it accessible for people still learning the prayer routine.
- Muslims returning to prayer after a break: The app helps you rebuild the habit without judgment, starting from wherever you are.
- Families and friend groups: Prayer Circles let you pray together and support each other.
