Athan Table Clock · Owner's ManualWelcome

Welcome to your clock

This clock sets its own time over WiFi and plays the Athan at each prayer time for where you live. It is also an alarm clock, a kitchen timer and a stopwatch. You set everything up from your phone's web browser. No app to install, no account to create.

  • Athan Table Clock
  • USB-C power supply (5 V, 3 A) and cable
  • This manual

You will need

  • A home WiFi network (2.4 GHz)
  • Your WiFi password
  • A phone, tablet or computer

Athan Table Clock · Owner's ManualSetup

Getting started

Setup takes about five minutes and you only do it once. The clock remembers everything, even when unplugged.

1

Place it and plug it in

Set the clock on a flat, hard surface. The speaker plays through the bottom, so don't put it on a cloth or cushion. Plug the USB-C cable into the back and the power supply into the wall. The display lights up.

2

Connect it to your WiFi

The first time it starts, the clock creates its own WiFi network called Table-Clock-Setup. On your phone, open Settings › Wi-Fi and join it. A setup page opens by itself. If it doesn't, open your browser and go to 192.168.4.1.

Tap Configure WiFi, choose your home network, type the password and tap Save. The clock joins your WiFi and scrolls its network address across the display. Write that number down in case you need it later.

3

Open the settings page

Put your phone back on your home WiFi. Open the browser and go to athantable.local. If that doesn't open (some Android phones), type the number the clock scrolled, such as 192.168.1.42. Save the page to your home screen so it's one tap away.

4

Set your location

Scroll to Location & method. Type your city or ZIP code, tap Look up and pick your city. The latitude, longitude and time zone fill in for you. Choose your calculation method (ISNA is common in North America) and Asr (Standard or Hanafi), then tap Save settings.

Until a location is saved, the clock flashes LOC once a minute.

Good to know. The clock gets the exact time from the internet. A built-in backup battery keeps the time through power cuts, so it is right even before WiFi reconnects. Daylight saving changes happen automatically.

Athan Table Clock · Owner's ManualAthan

Prayer times & Athan

The clock works out the five daily prayer times for your location each day and plays the Athan at each one. Today's times are listed at the top of the settings page, with the next prayer highlighted.

Each prayer

Under Athan, switch the Athan on or off for each prayer. You can also move each prayer up to 5 minutes earlier or later to match your local masjid.

Calculation method

ISNA, Muslim World League, Egyptian, Karachi, Umm al-Qura or Dubai. Asr can be Standard (Shafi'i) or Hanafi. Both are under Location & method.

Muting the Athan

Mute 1 hSilent for the next hour, then back to normal by itself.
Mute until FajrSilent through tonight, including Fajr. Good for guests or a sleeping baby.
Mute allSilent until you turn it back on. You can also hold the button for 3 seconds.
Cancel muteTurns the Athan back on now.

While muted, the colon stays red. Alarms and the timer still ring. To stop an Athan that is already playing, press the button once.

Volume and options

Day volume: for Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha (0–30).
Fajr volume: set separately, usually softer for early morning.
Lower when room is dark: uses the Night volume when the lights are off.
Green flash during Athan: the digits pulse green while it plays.
Countdown in last 10 min: amber countdown before each prayer.
Dua after Athan: plays the dua after the Athan, if a dua recording is installed.
Try it now. The buttons at the top of the page (Test chime, Test Athan and Test Fajr Athan) play the sound right away so you can set the volume. Stop ends it.

Alarms

The clock holds six alarms, each with its own time, days and tune. You'll find them in the Alarms section of the settings page.

Setting an alarm

1
Tick the box next to Alarm 1 (up to 6) to turn it on, then set the time.
2
Tick the days it should ring: Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa. Leave every day unticked for a one-time alarm. It rings once and then turns itself off.
3
Choose a tune and tap ▶ to hear it. Add a label if you like, such as "School" or "Work".
4
Tap Save alarms or Save settings (either one saves). The page then shows your next alarm, for example "Next alarm: Thu 6:30 AM".

When it rings

Stop
Press the button once, or tap Stop on the settings page.
Snooze
Hold the button for 1.5 seconds. The colon turns blue until it rings again.
Do nothing
The time flashes and the tune repeats, then stops by itself after a few minutes.

Alarm settings

Alarm & timer volumeSeparate from the Athan volume. It isn't lowered at night.
SnoozeMinutes until a snoozed alarm rings again. Set 0 to turn snooze off.
Stop ringing afterHow many minutes an alarm rings before it gives up.
