Choosing a prayer times app

Instead of ranking apps, here are the eight questions that separate a good prayer app from a noisy one.

1. Which calculation method and Asr school does it use, and can you change them?
2. Does it show your high-latitude rule if you live in the north?
3. Does it work offline?
4. Does it require an account?
5. What does it do with your location?
6. Does it show ads or sell data? Check the store privacy label.
7. How reliable are its reminders in Silent mode and Focus?
8. How is it paid for? An honest answer (a purchase or subscription) is better than "free" with ads.

See Prayer times app without ads for how to check each point, and calculation methods for the first.
