Qiblih 2.22

Qiblih is, in the Bahá'í Faith, the direction that should be faced during prayers. It indicates the Shrine of Bahá'u'lláh, near `Akká.

No longer is an astrolabe or another costly device necessary as modern technology, like your iPhone, can now assist you.

• Integrated Compass: For devices with an integrated compass, simply wait a few seconds and your device will guide you to the Qiblih. The screen will display "Delta" along with the angular difference.
• Older Models or iPod Touch: For older models or iPod Touch, a real compass to find magnetic north is required. Align the top of your device with the same direction as the compass. The arrow on your device will then indicate the Qiblih direction. The screen will display "Compass bearing" with magnetic declination included.

No network access is necessary if your device has GPS functionality.
