One paragraph
PrayerTimes Pro puts accurate prayer times a glance away in the macOS menu bar. It supports twenty-six calculation methods and five languages, and every time is computed on the Mac itself — so it stays right wherever you are, and keeps working with no connection. Free, it is a complete prayer times app: the countdown, notifications and full-screen alerts, the adhan, the Qibla compass, the Hijri calendar and its event reminders, the morning and evening azkar recited aloud, sunnah fast and Friday reminders, a travel mode that notices when you are away, marking each prayer as you pray it, and the Siri shortcut. A $14.99 one-time Pro unlock adds three things — the living sky, with painted scenes behind the countdown, the sun's path, fourteen menu-bar styles and every accent colour; every voice, from an adhan library recorded across twenty-eight countries, with a separate call for Fajr, and four more azkar reciters; and your record, with streaks, the Sunnah checklist, a make-up ledger, Daily Routines, a khatma planner and a week and month report. It ships as a signed, notarized direct download with a Homebrew cask, and on the Mac App Store, at the same price on either.
Four ways into the story.
Prayer without picking up the phone
Almost every prayer app lives on a phone. This one lives where the working day actually happens — the Mac menu bar, beside the Wi-Fi icon and the clock.
A religion app with nothing to sign in to
Prayer habits are sensitive. Every time is computed on the Mac from your own coordinates, the location is rounded to about 1.1 km before any name lookup, and there is no account, no advertising and no cross-app tracking. Both builds send anonymous, aggregate-only usage counts you can switch off in a tap, and the direct build adds anonymous crash reports — never your location, your prayer log or your licence key.
One engineer, one honest price
Built solo in Egypt and sold for $14.99 once — no subscription — in a category where a monthly bill is the norm. The same price on the direct download and on the Mac App Store, so the channel is the reader's choice rather than a price tier.
Right-to-left done properly on macOS
Switch to Arabic, Persian or Urdu and the whole interface mirrors — layout, numerals and prayer names. A worked example of native localization rather than a translated string table.
Screenshots and artwork.
Click any picture to see it full size — arrow keys move between them. Every file is free to publish at any size or crop.
Motion.
Recorded from the app itself — the loops the product page plays, and a 45-second montage of them. Silent, 30 fps, free to cut into your own video. Each is an H.264 MP4 with a VP9 WebM and a poster frame.

Press FAQ.
Can I use the screenshots, icon and copy?
Yes, freely and without asking — in articles, videos and social posts, for coverage of the studio or its products. The one request is that the icon is not recoloured, stretched or restyled.
Is anything here under embargo?
No. Everything on this page is public the moment you read it, so publish whenever suits your schedule. There is no date to hold to and no coverage expected in return.
How do I get a review copy or a promo code?
Send a note through the contact form and it goes out the same day — a licence key for the direct build, or a Mac App Store promo code. No deadline is attached to it and no coverage is expected.
Is the developer available for interviews?
Yes — written questions usually come back within a day, and calls can be arranged across European and Middle East time zones. The contact form reaches the person who wrote the software, not a press desk.
Something is missing or looks out of date. What then?
Ask through the contact form. If a fact on this page has moved, a screenshot is stale, or you need an asset at a size that is not published here, it can usually be supplied the same day.
