Description
Qiblih is, in the Bahá'í Faith, the direction that should be faced during prayers.
It points to the Shrine of Bahá'u'lláh, near `Akká.
You no longer need an astrolabe or another costly device. Your iPhone can help you.
Depending on your model, there are 2 options :
- With an iintegrated compass, just wait one or two seconds and your device will point the Qiblih.
The screen displays "Delta" with angular difference.
- With an older model or an iPod Touch, you'll need a real compass to find magnetic north. Then set the top of your device pointing the same direction. The arrow on the device will show you the Qiblih direction.
The screen displays "Compass bearing" with magnetic declination included.
No network access is required if you have GPS on your unit.
Double tap on the compass to change its aspect.

Ratings and Reviews
Shortest path
I updated my review with five stars after being told it uses the short path algorithm.
Developer Response ,
The algorithm use the shortest path as it should. From Colorado this is NNE. You can check with a string on a globe.
Lovely and functional
This is a simple, attractive application that does what it says it does, functioning as a compass that points the shortest distance to Qiblih from your location. It also lets you choose between a small selection of different looks for the compass itself, which are attractive. It does not have as many features as Qiblah, and costs $1.00 more (they orient to different locations).
I wish it had been cheaper. I hope that more features might be added. As is, however, I use it and appreciate it.
👍
Thanks!
Developer Response ,
The app use the compass of your iPhone to display the indication.
And it works well.
