One pause.
Five times a day.
When it's time to pray, Ishra gently pauses the noise. A moment to turn to Allah, and to keep the light in your heart from dimming.
There is a light in you,
placed there by Allah.
Dimmed by noise, notifications, and everything pulling at you. Every prayer window hands a piece of it back.
Ishra blocks distraction
from your prayer.
Everything you need to
protect your prayer.
A pause for prayer
Choose which apps step aside during each prayer window. They return the moment you've prayed and logged it.
Web and adult site protection
Add the sites that pull you away, and turn on protection against adult content. The browser is turned away before the page loads.
Dhikr and reflection
A counter for your dhikr, and a quiet place to write what the day did to your heart. Both stay on your phone.
A journal that stays yours
Notes, moods and photos, written to your device and nowhere else. No account, no server, no analytics.
A rhythm, not a scoreboard
Streaks and milestones count only what you chose to write down. Ishra never checks whether you prayed.
Prayer times and qibla, offline
Salah times calculated on your device from your city, with the method and madhab you choose, and a qibla compass. No connection needed.
The average phone takes about four hours of a day.
The five prayers ask for minutes.
Minute by minute, the scroll takes what it isn't owed: your focus, your rest, your evenings, and the small pockets of time that were meant for the One who gave you every hour to begin with.
Ishra asks for none of that back. It only holds the noise still while you pray.
Now on iPhone. Mac is next.
Ishra for iPhone is on the App Store, next to Android on Google Play. The Mac app is next, with the same engine and the same promise.
Ishra for iPhone.
The same quiet loop, built for iOS. Your chosen apps are held behind a shield while the prayer window is open, and it lifts the moment you log.
- Built on Screen Time, so Ishra never learns which apps you picked
- Home screen and Lock Screen widgets
- Offline prayer times, journal and streaks, all on device
It lives in the notch.
Hover the notch for your schedule, and when a prayer comes in it opens by itself, then gets out of the way.

Coming from another app?
Honest side-by-sides. Where the other app fits better, we say so.

No, and it never will. Ishra cannot know whether you prayed, and it would never claim to. Logging a prayer is something you do for yourself: a personal record, never proof, never a judgement. Only Allah knows the truth of it.
Only the ones you choose. Pick the apps that pull you away, social feeds, games, whatever tempts you, and leave everything else alone. Calls, messages and anything you did not name keep working exactly as before.
Then you can't, and Ishra is not going to argue with you. The pause is a moment of friction, not a lock. You can always step past it, and nothing is recorded about it.
Entirely optional, and entirely yours. A quiet photo of your mosque or prayer mat, a keepsake, just for you. It is saved to the app's private folder on your phone. It is never uploaded, never analysed, and never used as proof of anything.
On your device, offline, from your city, using the calculation method and madhab you pick. They are an aid, not a ruling. Where it matters, follow your local masjid or a scholar you trust.
Completely. No accounts, no analytics, no cloud. Your prayers, notes and journal never leave your phone, because the app has no networking code to send them anywhere. The full detail is in the Privacy Policy.
Ishra is out now on Google Play and on the App Store for iPhone. The Mac app is next, in shā’ Allāh.
