Clock on Top of Page #631

Open jadshaker opened 9 months ago

jadshaker commented 9 months ago

While reading quraan from the app, it would be beneficial to be able to view the clock in the top middle of the page.

Thank you for submitting the feature request. Currently, by tapping on the page, the system clock will appear, and tapping again will hide it. I am cautious about adding a permanent clock display, as it may distract from the reading experience. Additionally, this behavior aligns with other reading apps, such as Apple's Books app, making it intuitive for users.

Thank you for your response, but when you read in landscape it doesn't show. It happened when we were praying qiyam and we wanted to know how much time left till fajr, so we thought it would be a good idea to implement it. Thank you!

On a side note, how can someone contribute to the community?

Oh I see. It's a best practice in iOS to hide the system clock on iPhones when in landscape mode (see almost all iOS apps that supports landscape). While I acknowledge your concern, I'm currently uncertain about the best approach to address it.

Regarding contributions, the app is now open source, allowing you to contribute by fixing bugs or adding new features. However, please inform us before starting any work by adding a comment to an existing issue or opening a new one if none exists.

Hey @mohamede1945 shall i give this a go?

mohamede1945 commented 7 months ago

I'm still not sure the best approach to address this. I don't want to deviate from a standard iOS pattern of hiding the clock on landscape mode.

Feel free to suggest some ideas. And let me know if you want to contribute, I can guide you to other features.
