Baha'i Qiblih Locator

Most probably the second most popular Bahá'í-themed android application (after Sina Tabrizi's prayer book). This application is a smart compass that indicates the Bahá'í Qiblih (Point of Adoration, in this case the Shrine of Bahá'u'lláh). Requires GPS support. If it doesn't work check GPS security settings.

Different devices use a different axis for their compassion some use a flat horizontal plane others (like the Nexus 6P) use a vertical plane. Try different orientations for your device before you face different directions and you'll have better luck! There is no way to code for this as it is a hardware limitation.

There weren't obvious directions of how to hold the phone to get an accurate reading, so I held it parallel to the floor like a real compass. I tested it by laying it on a flat surface and orienting the phone in different directions, and it wouldn't give me a consistent reading. It needle settled on a different direction each time I spun the phone a little. :/ perhaps it works better on different devices?

I would be more comfortable using this app if it had a different symbol. I feel uncomfortable using such a holy designation, as the Greatest Name is, for a finger tap.

Now it points to the complete opposite direction. Makes me think someone hacked into it to mess with a Bahá'í's prayer life.

Regrettably, this does not give consistent directions on my Samsung S6. May be problem with my phone

NOT WORKING ON MOTO E2: It is a great app. I have used it on my phone. I loved it. But now I am not able to install on my new phone Moto E(2nd Gen) (No compass). :-(

Nabil, you've done an excellent job! Praise be to God that He allowed such a son of the earth to be born. This is absolutely wonderful work. And Thank you for making it free of charge. Shows you're not just interested in making money! Good for you! There is life after this earth, and it does not require money. Looks like you're in tune with that world! Thanks a great deal. Much appreciated. :-)
