I admittedly often struggled getting my prayers done in due time during work hours. The only way I saw working was to add the prayers into my calendar but that just takes so much effort it never happens. Thanks to this simple app, with a few mouse clicks I have all prayers scheduled intelligently, and directly pushed into my calendar. I have no more excuses now!

On iOS: Go to Settings → Calendar → Accounts → Add Account → Microsoft Exchange. Sign in and enable Calendar sync. Athan will see your Exchange events alongside your personal calendar.

On Android: Add your Exchange or Outlook account in your device's calendar app. Once synced, Athan will be able to read your work events and schedule prayers around them.
