Sajdah 1.7.3: lifetime Premium and steadier prayer times

Sajdah is a Quran and Athan app for Apple TV. After Sajdah 1.7.0, I shipped three smaller updates. This post covers all three: 1.7.1, 1.7.2 and 1.7.3, which is on the App Store now.

In short

• Lifetime Premium: one purchase, no renewal.
• Quran Radio starts more reliably and tries again before it shows an error.
• The Athan and prayer times: fixes for the Athan, Fajr and the Prayer Screen.
• Playback and reciter search work better.
• Navigation and accessibility fixes across Today, the player and Settings.

Lifetime Premium (1.7.3)

Sajdah Premium now has a Lifetime option. It is a one-time purchase, with no renewal. The monthly and yearly plans are still there, if you prefer them.

Nothing changes about what is free. Listening to the Quran is always free. Premium adds things like word-by-word highlighting, more translations, the Athan at each prayer, the Prayer Screen, Quran Radio and Live TV.

Quran Radio starts more reliably (1.7.2 and 1.7.3)

• Most radio stations now play from a more stable server.
• If a station does not connect, Sajdah tries again before it shows an error.
• If something interrupts the radio, Sajdah tries the same station again.

The Athan and prayer times (1.7.1 and 1.7.3)

• The Athan now plays at prayer time after you preview a voice in Settings. Before, the preview could stop it.
• After Isha, the Today screen marks tomorrow's Fajr correctly.
• The Prayer Screen keeps the Maghrib dot on the arc after Maghrib.
• Prayer times load more reliably, and the Settings preview tries again when it cannot load.

Playback and reciter search (1.7.3)

Playback recovers better when something goes wrong, and reciter search works better.

Navigation and accessibility (1.7.3)

Moving around Today, the player and Settings with the Siri Remote is smoother, and focus lands on the right buttons. With Reduce Motion on, the Radio playing indicator stays still.

Get the update

Sajdah 1.7.3 is free to download on the App Store for Apple TV. Update or download it on the App Store. If something does not work as you expect, write to me through Sajdah support.
