Shia Azan on Android

Set up Ja'fari prayer-time reminders on Android and check battery, notification and background-playback settings.

Editor reviewedBy ShiaAzan editorial·Updated 2026-09-27

Setup

Choose your city manually, select a Ja'fari method where available, and create a separate notification channel for Fajr so its volume can differ.

Permissions

Alarms and reminders, notifications and — only if you want it — location. A prayer app does not need contacts or storage access to show a timetable.

Battery optimisation

Aggressive battery management is the most common reason an Android Azan stops playing. Exclude the app from optimisation and re-check after a system update.

Privacy

Review what the app uploads. A timetable can be computed from a city name; it does not require a continuous location history.
