Choose a sound

The adhan is a brief excerpt of up to 15 seconds, not the full adhan. Spoken reminders say the prayer name.
Questions about reminders
What is the difference between Off, Silent and Sound?
Off schedules no reminder. Silent sends an alert without a sound. Sound plays your selected short adhan excerpt or spoken prayer name.
What happens when I preview a prayer sound?
Preview plays an example only; it does not enable reminders. The short adhan option is an excerpt of up to 15 seconds, not the full adhan.
Why are my reminders not arriving?
Allow notifications for Hikma in your phone’s Settings. Hikma also needs your location to calculate local prayer times. Check that notification permission is enabled and your location is available. On Android, your phone’s alarm and battery settings can also affect delivery.
