How these times are calculated
Prayer times are calculated from the position of the sun for each city's coordinates, using the method that is customary in that country. For example, cities in Saudi Arabia use the Umm al-Qura method, cities in Turkey use the Diyanet method, and cities in Pakistan, India and Bangladesh use the Karachi method with the Hanafi Asr time. The calculations use the open-source adhan library and are checked against an independent reference before every release.
The methods used are: Moonsighting Committee Worldwide; University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi; Muslim World League; Islamic Society of North America (ISNA); Umm al-Qura University, Makkah; UAE General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowments; Egyptian General Authority of Survey; Diyanet (Presidency of Religious Affairs, Turkey); Kementerian Agama Republik Indonesia (Kemenag).

How does the page know my city?
It uses your device's time zone to pick the largest city we cover in that zone. Nothing is sent to us. If the city is wrong, choose "Change city" and search, or use your precise location.
Why do these times differ slightly from my local mosque?
Mosques often publish their own timetables, which may use a different calculation method, add a few minutes as a precaution, or round times. Each city page states the method it uses. Where your mosque's timetable differs, follow your mosque.
What is the difference between the standard and Hanafi Asr times?
Under the standard method, used by the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools, Asr begins when an object's shadow equals its own length plus its shadow at noon. Under the Hanafi method it begins when the shadow reaches twice the object's length, which is later in the afternoon. You can switch between them in the settings on each page.
