Recently I found out someone has released Al-Azan on google play, while violating this project's license. so I have opened this issue to track that, and any other app that may show up later on google play here.

I strongly advice against downloading from the following URLs.

@meypod Assalamu alaikum, I was wondering if I can use this code base to create an open source app that has mosque locations and iqamah times

meypod commented 1 year ago

@Ashraf-Ali-aa wa alaikum assalam as long as you don't violate the license (AGPL 3.0) and don't impersonate the app, It's fine I prefer if you also mention the original source (al-azan) and keep it ad-free, with no tracking and analytics

such app for mosques exist, even though it's source is available, it's license is not fully open source and limits commercial usage also it has analytics and tracking: https://github.com/mawaqit/android-tv-app

also someone else is working on similar app as well: https://github.com/masjids-io/limestone

@meypod I wanted to share my progress on redesigning the app, here is a preview. I still need to add a countdown feature and the different mosque times.
