iPhone & iPad

Enable adhan when the app is closed

  1. 1. Open SAMA in Safari on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. 2. Tap the Share icon, then Add to Home Screen.
  3. 3. Open SAMA from the home-screen icon (not Safari).
  4. 4. Return here and tap Enable push — iOS will ask permission.

Requires iOS 16.4 or later. Once installed as an app, iOS delivers prayer reminders like a native notification — even with the screen off. Android/Chrome/Edge users don't need this step.

Adhan and reminders play while the app is open. On supported browsers (Chrome, Edge, and iOS 16.4+ when installed to the home screen), reminders are also pre-scheduled to fire even when the app is closed.
