Frequently asked questions
How is the Qibla direction calculated?
We calculate the great-circle bearing from your coordinates to the Kaaba in Makkah (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E). This is the shortest path over the Earth and the standard way to find the Qibla.
Why does my phone compass show a different direction?
Phone compasses point to magnetic north and can be disturbed by metal, magnets and electronics nearby. Calibrate the compass by moving the phone in a figure-eight, and use landmarks or the degree bearing to double-check.
