A few beneficial apps:
QuranExplorer:
If you are trying to memorise the Quraan/ certain surahs, then this app is very helpful, alhmadulillah.
It allows you to have individual ayaa to be repeated (as many times as you like), or you can have the entire surah on repeat.
There are many recitors to chose from (so it feels like you have the likes of, e.g. Sheikh Mishary Al Afasy, teaching you the correct tajweed as you learn : ) ), and the app has recently been updated to include tafseer from Mufti Taqi Usmani.
(If you do not have an I-product, they also have a website:
http://www.quranexplorer.com/ )
myDuaa
This app contains the entire 'Fortress of a Muslim' Kitab - with duaas to be recited each day, and at different occasions.
It also contains the duaas in audio format if you have difficulty reading in arabic.
(This particular app comes for a very small price, but it is absolutely worth it, alhamdullilah)
QamarDeen
This app allows you to keep track of your salaah, Quraan, sadaqah and fasting each day, and it allows you to monitor your progress week-by-week/ over the entire year by means of graphs for each act of ibaadat.
I hope they update this app to include more Nafl acts, in shaa Allah.
Allah
An app with the 99 names of Allah, their basic as well as extended meanings and benefits.
Also has audio play-back.
Al-Quran
Contains the entire Quraan in arabic and english translation, Tafsir by Ibn Kathir, Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim.
Quran Study
If you are studying Arabic, then this is a very useful app alhamdulillah.
It provides word-for-word translation as well as the root-derivations for each word and mentions how many times that particular word is found in the Quran.
(The full version comes at a small cost.)
Many of these apps are available on android as well.
*********
If we use the blessings that Allah Taa'la has provided us, by means of technology, then in shaa Allah, they can become the means of increasing our deeni knowledge and drawing towards Allah.
However if we use these same means to waste our time on e.g. social networks, useless apps that do not serve any benefit towards our Aakhirah, then we will be instead using Allahs blessings to incur His displeasure.
May Allah guide us towards all that is good and pleasing to Him.
Ameen
