During your prayer, the text follows your voice. A Quran app to follow your recitation in salah, rakʿah after rakʿah.

You place your phone in front of you and pray. Al-Fatiha, then the surah of the rakʿah, scroll at the pace of your recitation. Nothing to tap.

The text follows your voice

You place the phone in front of you and begin. The verse you recite lights up, the next ones wait for your turn, and your movements do not move anything.

Your questions

How does the text follow me during prayer?

The text moves forward at the pace of your recitation. Bowing, prostrating and takbir do not move anything; Al-Fatiha of the next rakʿah takes its place again.

Does the app correct me during prayer?

No. During prayer, I point out no mistakes and give no score. For correction, recite outside the prayer.

Can I read from a screen during prayer?

Schools differ on this point. The app gives no ruling: for your own case, ask your imam.

Which prayers?

The five obligatory prayers, and voluntary prayers such as witr or tarawih.

Is there a web or desktop version?

No. Tilawa is an app for iPhone, iPad and Android, because it listens to you through the microphone while you recite. On a computer, this site lets you read and listen to the Quran with colour-coded tajweed. To recite and get corrected, scan the QR code with your phone.
