My prayer times differ from my mosque’s
Verse of Ease calculates prayer times on your phone from your location, the calculation method and the Asr timing you chose. Mosques follow different authorities. Open Settings → Prayer setup and pick the method your mosque uses. There are 12, from Muslim World League to Umm al-Qura and Diyanet. Hanafi communities should choose Hanafi under Asr timing.
Reminders are not arriving
- Check that notifications are allowed for Verse of Ease in your phone’s settings. Also check that a Focus or Do Not Disturb mode is not hiding them.
- Open Verse of Ease once. It schedules your upcoming reminders each time it opens and once a day in the background.
- Quiet hours only silence the prayers you have explicitly allowed them to silence.
- On Android the system may hold back reminders while the phone is idle to save battery. Open Settings → Notifications → Exact timing and allow exact alarms so each reminder arrives at the prayer time itself.
Can the verse stay off my lock screen?
Yes. In Settings → Notifications choose “Show only the reference”. The reminder then names the surah and ayah. The verse itself appears once you open Verse of Ease.
The text is too small or too large
Open Settings → Reading. The Arabic and the translation each have their own size, with a preview from the Quran text. Verse of Ease also follows your phone’s own text size.
Can Verse of Ease be easier on the eyes at night?
Yes. In Settings → Reading → Appearance choose Night. Choose System to follow your phone.
How do I change the language?
Verse of Ease’s menus follow your phone’s language. They are available in English, Albanian, Turkish and Arabic. To use another of these for Verse of Ease only, change the app’s language in your phone’s system settings.
What does “In context” show?
It shows the verse before and the verse after the passage you received, from the same verified text. Verse of Ease adds no commentary.
How does memorising work?
Choose Memorize on any verse. The Journal tab then brings it back for review after gradually longer gaps. Recite it from memory first, then reveal the verse to check. There are no scores and no streaks.
Ramadan started on a different day where I live
Verse of Ease follows the Umm al-Qura calendar. If your community’s moon sighting differs, use Settings → Prayer setup → Hijri date adjustment to move it by up to two days either way. Ramadan mode and its daily verses follow your adjustment.
Does Verse of Ease need the internet?
No. The Quran text, translations and recitations are all inside the app. Prayer times are calculated on your phone. Verse of Ease works in airplane mode.
I think something in a verse is wrong
The Arabic is the King Fahd Complex QPC Hafs text. It is checked byte for byte against two independent sources when the app is built and checked again by the app every time it starts. If those checks ever fail, Verse of Ease refuses to show scripture rather than show it wrong. Translations are published editions shown exactly as published. If you believe something is wrong, please tell us the surah and ayah number. A contact address will be published here before the app launches.
How do I delete my data?
Delete the app. Everything Verse of Ease keeps is stored only on your phone and is removed with it. See the privacy page for exactly what that is.
