Short answer

Salah Home is the best free prayer tracker app in 2026. It is free to download on iPhone, with an optional Premium upgrade, and you can log all five daily prayers with one tap, keep a streak and earn Dates from day one, with no ads. 5te5 Prayer Tracker and 5te5 Qadha Tracker are completely free, Pillars is free to download with an ad-free tracker, and Muslim Pro is free to download but shows ads.

You should not have to pay to keep track of your prayers. Plenty of prayer apps are free to download, but "free" on the App Store can mean very different things: some apps are fully free, some show ads to pay for themselves, and some put the tracker itself behind a subscription after a trial.

We read the official App Store listing of every app below on October 26, 2026, and checked three things: whether the app is free to download, whether it lists in-app purchases, and whether it carries Apple's "Contains Advertising" label. We left out prices, since they change by country.

What is the best free prayer tracker app?

Salah Home is the best free prayer tracker because the free download already covers the core daily habit: one-tap logging, a streak, your history and Dates rewards, with no ads. It is free to download on iPhone, with an optional Premium upgrade. You log Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha with a single tap, watch your streak grow, and see your prayer history and statistics at a glance.

Every prayer you log earns Dates, which you spend on furniture, fountains and gardens to build your own peaceful home. Dates can only be earned by praying and cannot be bought with money. The reward stays tied to your salah, not your wallet. You can download Salah Home and start logging today's prayers right away.

How do the best free prayer tracker apps compare?

Salah Home is the best overall free option; the other apps are better fits for one narrower need. Here is what each App Store listing shows:

Why does Salah Home rank first among free prayer trackers?

Salah Home ranks first because it is built around one job, staying consistent with all five prayers, and the free download gives you everything that job needs. You do not have to set up prayer times, sign in to a community or work through a feature list before you can start. Open it, tap the prayer you just prayed, and you are done.

The second reason is motivation. Most free trackers show a checkmark and a streak. Salah Home also turns each prayer into Dates that build a home you can see grow, which gives you a reason to open the app five times a day. The Prophet ﷺ said that "the most beloved deed to Allah is the most regular and constant even if it were little" (Sahih al-Bukhari 6464), and a tracker you actually enjoy opening makes regular much easier.

Which prayer tracker apps are completely free?

5te5 Prayer Tracker and 5te5 Qadha Tracker are the two completely free picks on this list. Both come from the same developer, Sözler Köşkü. The 5te5 Prayer Tracker listing says "our app is completely free" and describes instructional videos and motivational messages for people who are new to prayer, built around a 40-day salah habit challenge. Its listing shows no in-app purchases.

5te5 Qadha Tracker does a different job: it helps you "systematically keep track of missed prayers and fasts." Its listing calls it "a completely free, ad-free application developed without any profit motive." Salah Home does not track qada, so if you have years of missed prayers to make up, 5te5 Qadha Tracker is a good free companion. Our guide to making up missed prayers (qada) explains how to plan it.

Which free prayer app is best for prayer times?

Pillars is the best free-to-download choice if you mainly need prayer times and a tracker in the same app. Its listing opens with "No Ads – adverts don't belong on a Prayer app. Period." It lists prayer times with multiple calculation methods, early or late Asr, prayer notifications, a Qibla compass, home and lock screen widgets, a prayer tracker and a fasting tracker. It also has a menstruation pause button that keeps your streak.

Pillars Premium unlocks extras such as more themes and Apple Watch support. You can use Pillars for times and Salah Home for the daily habit.

Is Muslim Pro free?

Muslim Pro is free to download, but its listing carries Apple's "Contains Advertising" label, and its Premium tier is what removes the ads. The listing describes prayer times and Athan alerts, the full Qur'an with audio, a Qibla finder, duas and dhikr, and a Prayer and Fasting Tracker with visible streaks. Its Premium section lists an "ad-free experience," offline Qur'an and customizable prayer widgets.

If you want a big all-in-one Muslim app and do not mind ads, Muslim Pro covers a lot. If you only want to track your prayers, an ad-free tracker keeps the moment calmer. Our list of the best ad-free prayer tracker apps compares the ad labels in more detail.

How can you tell what a free prayer app really costs?

Check three lines on the App Store listing before you download: the price button, the In-App Purchases list and the "Contains Advertising" label. They tell you most of what "free" means for that app.

  1. "Free" with no in-app purchases usually means the whole app is free, as with 5te5 Prayer Tracker.
  2. "Free · In-App Purchases" means the app is free to download with paid extras. Read the description to see which features need the upgrade.
  3. "Contains Advertising" in the Information section means the free version shows ads.

How we chose: what did we compare?

We ranked apps by how well their free download helps you pray all five prayers consistently, using only what each official App Store listing states. We checked each listing on October 26, 2026 for the price label, in-app purchases, the advertising label and the tracking features described. Salah Home ranks first because its free download combines one-tap logging, streaks, history and a reward you cannot buy, with no ads.
