Qibla Finder

Qibla Finder is a lightweight Yahoo! widget designed to help a Muslim find the direction towards which he/she has to be faced while praying.

The program sports a clean and straightforward layout that gives users the possibility to perform most operations with just a few clicks.

Qibla Finder comes packed with several configuration settings of its own that allow users to specify the latitude and longitude, pick the hemisphere, and select the background colour and opacity, as well as the text colour.

Other options offered by the Yahoo! environment give you the possibility to prevent the windows from being dragged, set the opacity level, and ignore mouse events. You can also make the program stay on top of other applications, and this proves to pretty useful, especially when dealing with multiple tools at the same time.

During our testing we have noticed that the widget displays accurate results and no errors showed up throughout the entire process.

As it would be expected from such a small utility, it manages to remain light on the system resources, so it doesn’t burden the overall performance of the computer, nor interfere with other programs’ functionality.

To sum things up, Qibla Finder offers a simple software solution when it comes to pointing out the direction towards which you have to make your daily prayers. It can be easily configured and installed by all types of users, regardless of their experience level.
