A new mobile app will help Muslim travelers establish prayer times, locate mosques and find halal food more easily while away from home.

Going by the name HalalTrip, the app has integrated the latest available technologies to give Muslim travelers a simple way to find prayer times and locations whether on air, land or sea.

With just one click, the new feature instantly calculates the prayer times for the current location, the distances for nearby mosques and the time it will take to reach them. For travelers it will also work out whether you can reach your hotel in time for prayers.

The HalalTrip app brings together a number of key essential travel resources for Muslims which includes Halal food discovery.
