Some Frequently Asked Questions
Alexa is Amazon’s cloud-based voice service available on more than 100 million devices from Amazon and third-party device manufacturers. With Alexa, you can use your natural voice as an easier way to interact with the PrayPray skill.
Just as you are used to having “Apps” available on your smartphone, you can think of the same concept for your Alexa-supported device, except it’s all voice-assistant driven.
PrayPray is an Alexa skill that doesn’t use your fingers to tap on screen buttons or type in commands. Instead, Alexa allows you to simply use your voice to ask for the same things.
PrayPray is very different than your traditional Islamic App because it’s all voice-assistant driven, which allows you to use it across all of your Alexa-supported devices. It’s not just for your smartphone, but also your smart speakers, smart TV’s, Echo devices, etc.
In short, the answer is YES, that’s what we’re striving for. But in reality, it will be so much more. Your traditional Azaan clock has no way to connect to your local Masjid, or allow a proceed of your subscription fee to be donated back to them. Get local Jumaah or Event information from your Masjid, simply by asking PrayPray.
The goal of PrayPray is to be the best Alexa-driven Islamic skill available. We want to connect the Ummah globally, and in turn, become the Information Hub for all relevant Islamic information.
But to achieve this, we need your feedback because this helps us to continue to evolve and develop the platform.
