Srinagar boy develops Ramzan app

22-year-old Haider Ali Punjabi developed his own Ramzan application for Kashmir and named it iftarkar.com. The app provides timely information regarding the time of Sehri and Iftar during the month of Ramadan.

Srinagar (Jammu and Kashmir):Although there is no shortage of mobile applications that provide timely information regarding the time of Sehri and Iftar during the month of Ramadan, no application was developed keeping in view the geography of Jammu and Kashmir. Due to which most of the residents of Centrally Administered Jammu and Kashmir used to claim that the mobile application does not show the right time. To solve this problem, 22-year-old Haider Ali Punjabi developed his own Ramzan application for Kashmir and named it iftarkar.com.

Haider, who hails from Nishat area of ​​Srinagar city, is currently studying engineering at Cluster University. He has also developed the Code Kashmir application before.

Referring to his Ramadan application, Haider said, "Last year, one day before the month of Ramzan, I developed this application on the advice of my friend. There was also good feedback from people, but There are a lot of things that needed to be worked on. The application you have today is better and more advanced. "

He added that "Last year there was a slow internet so we couldn't use the latest technology. We used whatever content was in our computer system. Last year we got feedback from people. It was only later that we decided to work on it every year. So within a month, I developed a whole new application."

Explaining the benefits of installing this application on mobile, he said, "This app runs on the internet. It only needs open internet for the first time and never later. For both Jaffaria and Hanafi sects of Islam, the app describes the time of Iftar and Sehri. It also has alarms and alerts. "

He added, "All the prayers that come in handy during Ramadan are also included in this application. Although this application is currently only for Google Play, ie the Android operating system, but iOS or Apple users also use this application." IOS is expensive and I don't have that much at the moment. "
