You can even use it on any Android or iOS mobile that have a compass. For Android devices, once you give the app the required permission to access device camera and location it turns on and draws a line of direction of Qibla. You can follow the line with your smartphone cameras. The service works similarly on IOS devices but without the imagery.

The new feature follows a service of updates to applications to help users mark the month of Ramadan. The updates include a collection of discounts on Google play store on premium applications and a lot more. All details about Qibla Finder and other updates are now available on Google’s Ramadan Hub so that Muslims around the world can take benefits in their holy month.
