Designing Shiyam Application: An Android-based Fasting Reminder

摘要

Indonesia is a country with Muslim majority. Muslims implement fasting as one of the essential Islamic pillars. Information regarding fasting is substantial for Muslims, especially warnings of imsak, sahur and iftar times. The integration of information related to fasting schedules and provisions in mobile devices with Android is a promising solution for Muslims. Designing the Shiyam application as the fasting reminder is great to perform. This application had been developed using the Waterfall model, emphasizing on the development of systematic and sequential information systems. The implementation of the Shiyam application that focuses on the aspect of fasting can provide detailed fasting-related information and provides warnings at the time of imsak, iftar, and sahur, which can help Muslims in carrying out their worship.
