النَّوْمُ الطَّوِيلُ اللَّيْلَةَ

“The night is long, stay asleep.”

Satan ties three knots at the back of your head as you sleep, striking each one with that whisper. When you wake and remember Allah, one knot is undone. When you make wudu, the second. When you pray, the third, and you rise energetic, with a good heart.

Knots wake ritual screen: the first knot undone by dhikr

How every morning works

Dhikr. Wudu. Prayer.
The alarm stops for the sunnah.

No snooze button, because none of the three knots are undone by your thumb.

01

Recite the waking du'a

The Fajr alarm keeps ringing through Silent and Focus modes until you recite the waking du'a aloud. On-device speech recognition hears you. The audio itself is never uploaded.

02

Walk to your sink for wudu

The camera matches the sink you registered, so you're really out of bed, not just reaching for your phone. Photos never leave the device.

03

Pray Fajr

The third knot comes undone the honest way: only prayer undoes it. Mark it done, and the morning is yours.

Built in, not a setting you have to babysit

Auto-seasonal sleep.

Fajr and Isha drift with the seasons, sometimes by hours between summer and winter. Knots follows that drift automatically: your bedtime, your last-third wake, and your Fajr alarm all reset themselves as the daylight changes, so you're never running a schedule that quietly went stale.

No manual re-timing, ever.

Guard the whole day

Built around your five daily prayers,
not just Fajr.

Knots computes everything on your device and stays with you from Fajr to Isha.

Fajr alarm that can't be swiped away

Rings through Silent and Focus modes, with no snooze. Only the ritual stops it.

Prayer times & qibla, on-device

Choose your calculation method and madhab. Computed locally, never sent to a server.

Distracting apps pause at salah

Apple's Screen Time blocks the apps you choose at every prayer, and they unlock the moment you mark it prayed.

Fajr streaks & prayer insights

Track your consistency over time, stored only on your phone and never in the cloud.

A living prayer-time sky

Your home screen drifts through the day's prayer windows, from fajr to isha, made visible.

Morning & evening refuge

The three Quls, prompted at their sunnah times. Recite aloud or quietly, three times each.

Home Screen widgets

Next prayer, today's times, and your alarms, glanceable without opening the app.

More than an alarm

The rest of your day, guarded too.

Built with your privacy in mind

The sensitive stuff stays on your phone.

  • Your recitation, your sink photo, and your location are processed on-device and never uploaded.
  • A simple account (Sign in with Apple) keeps Premium and your streaks in sync across devices.
  • We use PostHog analytics to see what's working and improve the app, never to sell your data.
