As-salamu alaykum @DBChoco ,

I wanted to thank you for this app. Great job.
I do have some features and improvements I would like to suggest, let me know what you think.

Visibility

First of all, the app was quite hard to find. I published it on AlternativeTo so it gains more visibility among the Muslim FOSS community. Hope this helps for people to discover Muezzin.

Window position and size

Muezzin currently doesn't remember the last window position and size it was left in. It always opens either in full screen or in small window with right scrollbar. Adding that feature would be great.

Quran reader/player

The Quran reader/player is very useful, but it would be more intuitive to replace the dropdown surah menu with a search bar (including search suggestions when typing surah name or number).

The Quran player also plays a little too fast, having a speed feature to control the recitation pace (next ayah) would be great.

Another great feature would be to have auto-play toggle to keep playing next surah's. Or option to repeat/loop a certain ayah.

Interface

I don't know if a UI redesign is planned in the future, but I got an idea for the dashboard.
I made a quick design mockup. The background is darkened and blurred so everything else is more visible.

Muezzin Redesign

Wa Alaykoum Assalam wa Rahmatou Lahi wa Baraketu @realgooseman !

You are welcome !

1) Visibility wise, I don't really know what to do to be honest. I've tried to spread it around but as you can see it is not very popular, which is a shame but not a big deal.

2) This one seems quite interesting and should be easy to implements inshaAllah; I'll see what I can do.

3) I'll try to add a search bar for the Qur'an as well inshaAllah, shouldn't be too hard; and Allah knows Best.
For the rest of the controls, I'll try to think about how to implements such things, I'll give it a try inshaAllah. (this might take much longer for me to do, I don't consider the Qur'an side of the app to be a priority, and I have many many many other things to do IRL so sorry if I'm late.)

4) To be honest I didn't plan to touch the interface very much; not all at once at least. But your little design is quite nice actually. I'll think about it inshaAllah.

Baraka Lahu feek for the suggestions and feedback; I'll keep it in mind inshaAllah, don't hesitate to knock again if you see that I forgot, because I might very well do.

Assalam Alaykoum wa Rahmatou Lahi wa Baraketu

Asalaamu Alaikum. I love this project. It works well with Linux and can be configured easily. I just tried the Quran reader and found that when I select Mahmoud Khalil Al-Husary all I get is Bismillahirahmanirahim. It then stops. does that mean I need to download the files of each reciter? Or is it they are not yet implemented?

Jazakallah khair
