Bahá'í Prayers,Writings,Tools Reviews

by Nadia Ekbal

BaháíPrayersWritingsTools would be a very good study of the Writings tool if we were able to bookmark where we left off on a given Tablet when opening it the next time/day. Hopefully that can be done with the next update!

BaháíPrayersWritingsTools is evidence of a mind well employed in service to humanity.
“Consider what it is that singles man out from among created beings, and makes of him a creature apart. Is it not his reasoning power, his intelligence? Shall he not make use of these in his study of religion?” (Abdu’l-Baha). And it just keeps getting better!

Plus you get updates to authenticated writings as they come out plus news. Then there’s little things like being able to choose a background, word counts, and just nice little touches that make me appreciate the thought that goes into BaháíPrayersWritingsTools.

I work on mobile apps full time and I would be proud if this was one of the apps I had worked on. Good job team!

Love it. Shared with friends. They have their own app. Now. Enjoy the music, songs & pictures with many Of the prayers…enjoy the writings and tools.
Thank you

It’s so nice to have prayers at my fingertips wherever I am (so long as I remember to take my phone!) It would be nice to have a feature where I could make my own prayer categories instead of (or besides) the “Prayer List” area. So I could, for instance, have a prayer list for healing, one for children, one for teaching, etc. and put lists of people under each category.

One thing doesn’t seem to be working. The arrow that says it’s pointing to Bahá’í never adjusts its orientation. It is always pointing to the top of the phone regardless of which way I am standing or sitting.

Prayers have videos if that’s your sort of thing. I happened to enjoy one of them. Give them a try by clicking the audio picture.

Thank you for this wonderful app. It is such a help to me, especially when traveling. Being able to know the direction to face for prayers, or when the next Feast day is coming up is essential. The added bounty of the writings a news really helps keep the connection. The updates are great. Thank you for your service! I love the color backgrounds (my fav is the mango). And I want to add a special thank you for the prayer list. I used to have to keep slips of paper, but this is so much more convenient. Today, I am 1000 miles from home, but I have all I need in BaháíPrayersWritingsTools. Thank you again for your service.

The new feature helps with memorization so I can go over the paragraphs again and again.
Click around to find more features such as an arrow pointing to the Kiblih, and the number of days until the next Feast or Holy Day!

I have had BaháíPrayersWritingsTools for several years. It is an all in one app for prayers, reading the writings of Bahá’u’lláh, The Báb, Abdú-l-Bahá and Shoghi Effendi. It will search by author, with a few words for hints. I can change the brightness behind the prayers, change size of fonts etc. I think you will love BaháíPrayersWritingsTools!

As someone who has been studying the Faith for about 7 months now and is strongly considering formally declaring, BaháíPrayersWritingsTools is by far the best I have found. Being an aspiring polyglot, I love being able to read the prayers and writings in my native English or one of the languages I’m studying. Even though my phone has enough space that I could have multiple apps for the Writings, Prayers, Qiblih, etc, it’s much nicer to have everything in one location. The only thing I would appreciate being added would be the ability to set reminders for prayers. Other than that, fantastic app!

Thank you for combining the prayers with everything all in one app and also those amazing tools. It’s 2024 right now and todate this is the best Baha’i app created. Can’t wait for the future to see how it can even grow further. Perhaps adding the full Bayan in the writing and such;) I truly believe the Bayan is the king of all Books but somehow hidden and not mentioned much for reason I’ll never understand.

So many good resources - and I learned something today that the Qibla tool is way more accurate then my line of site thinking - I forgot to take into account the curvature of the earth - in the past I was off a few degrees - thanks Ian for another great tool - really appreciated!

Since I have not yet ordered an actual book of the Bahaí prayers, I was recommended to download BaháíPrayersWritingsTools. It has been of grave assistance and the utmost importance to have this at my hand. I am able to bookmark my favorite prayers, have the Divine Tablets in my hand, as well as the obligatory prayers with instructions on what to do and when to do it. I would definitely recommend BaháíPrayersWritingsTools to any Bahaí or non-Bahaí who wants an on-the-go prayer service and look into the Writings.

by Smoosav

This is an excellent App! However if you could program it to where it We need to copy a phrase or a quote, it would paste it with full reference (source, author, page number, etc) that would even more perfect! Something to think about!
Thank you very much!

I just am blessed with a new grand child. Every morning at dawn, I am trusted with her care after she is done nursing. I hold her in my arms, and guided by the Great Spirit, I intone the verses of God, from the Baha’i prayers, that has been received. It soothes my grand daughter while kindling the candle of her heart with the Hand of His power.
I am planning to record some of these Lullabies for my friends in both Persian and English language.

This resource is excellent and I use it daily. It has come so handy when unexpectedly asked to say a prayer at a public event to to look up a reference to make a point. Thank you for the wonderful work you make available to so many of us.

BaháíPrayersWritingsTools is working very well for me. The 95 taps is super and there are many great features like the news, sunrise/sunset, quibli. Nice colors to choose from which makes it very pleasant. Thank w!

If you’re looking for a easy to use Baha’i prayer book to-go for anytime, you MUST DOWNLOAD BaháíPrayersWritingsTools. It’s super easy to use, and I like to save my battery with dark mode, and guess what? They have that option. Also, you can make the text larger so you can read it easier. They have all categories too, and it’s really helpful.

by Ian Breuser

The updated prayers app works well and is easy to use for all aspects of Baha’i life. I would recommend BaháíPrayersWritingsTools to my friends and family.

by Yetlie

It is so wonderful to have everything in one place. I just say, “Siri, open Baha’i” and voilà! There it all is! You have my undying gratitude.

by LIHWS

I am very grateful to be able at access Sacred Texts from the Baha’i Faith easily through my Cell Phone: anywhere; any time of day. Thank you.

by MetzinMan

I have so many English- and Spanish-speaking friends that I can easily share Bahai’ prayers with thanks to BaháíPrayersWritingsTools! It’s my life blood to our first duty as Bahai’s to TEACH the Faith!

by Firozeh G

I love this prayer App, it is very easy to use. I also like how it incorporates Baha’i news by its pop-up feature when you open it. Thank you.

by Abuelisa

I would be lost without BaháíPrayersWritingsTools. So grateful that I can find a prayer for every occasion and other great benefits in this one place. Thankfully yours!
