Our story

Built by a Muslim, for the moments that matter most.

PrayN started as a personal frustration. It became a tool for a community that deserves better.

Why we exist

Prayer should be the center of the day, not a notification you almost missed.

Five times a day, every day, a Muslim is called back to something larger than themselves. It's the rhythm we live by — or it's supposed to be. Somewhere along the way, the device meant to help us remember became the loudest thing pulling us away.

We don't believe more notifications are the answer. We believe the right one — at the right moment, in the right place — is.

PrayN is built around a simple bet: that a quiet wrist tap five minutes before salah does more for your prayer life than five athan apps ever will. No feed. No scroll. No competing for your attention. Just a gentle pull back to what matters.

We're a small team of Muslims building tools we wish existed. Every product decision passes through one filter: does this help you show up for prayer, or does it just look like it does?

What we stand for

Three things we won't compromise on.

Some of these are easy. Some of them cost us money. We hold the line anyway.

From the founder

Why I'm doing this.

I missed Asr again last week. Not because I didn't care. Because my phone — the thing that was supposed to remind me — kept stealing my attention. I knew I wasn't alone. I'd had this conversation with brothers and sisters dozens of times.

So I started designing something else. Something that does one thing well and stays quiet otherwise. Two years of prototyping, three failed investor pitches, and one Kickstarter campaign later — here we are.

I'm not trying to build the next big tech company. I'm trying to build the small device my future self wishes my present self had owned. If it helps you too, alhamdulillah.
