The 80/90 Mins option has been developed under Khalifatul Masih IV (may Allah strengthen him) instructions that if in a location there is twilight, then Fajr angle is 90 minutes before sunrise. If there is no twilight then set the Fajr angle as 80 minutes before sunrise. There is a limiting latitude of 55.87 degrees, above which if there is no twilight then the timings are calculated for location at latitude 55.87 degrees.
Other options are also available for other locations, and these are for calculation of Fajr and Ishaa times at sun being 18 degrees, 16 degrees or 12 degrees below the horizon.
Each salat can be set to have a different adhans - up to 5 different adhans available and 5 different tones.
Each adhan/tone alarm can be set at the Salat time, or easily adjust to +/- 100 minutes from the salat time.
On the Adhan Alarm screen a click on the reset button will reset the active adhan slider time to mid point (i.e. at salat time). A press and hold on the reset button, sets all the 5 adhan slider times back to mid point. Listen to the Adhan by clicking on an Adhan Alarm button.
