A bunch of questions/comments:

1) I see you are using one aya per line. I always preferred them to be beside each other like the current way. Of course the arrangement can be changed when the translation mode gets enabled ?

2) I was reserving tapping on the aya to play the recitation. Not to show the translation.

3) I don't have the list of chapter names translated. I'll have to show them in Arabic for now

4) I had an idea to implement text searching. You enter a word and the application searches for it. I see you redefioned search to be something else.

5) The current icon width is 60 pixels. The screen width is 480. This leaves us with 5/6 icons:
Menu, page number (show index), full screen, favorites, an icon to switch translations and an icon for recitations.
What's the book icon you are using ?

6) Would you be willing to contribute the graphics and/or icons needed ?

Thanks,

1. Yes I implemented it because it looks better and easier to read on small screen and looks clean

2.Ok so we can use one tap for recitation and double tap for translation, (only in hidden mode) because for example i usually like to see the meaning of a specific ayat while reciting..

3.ok,but I can give you a link or send you a pm about it with all the list of names.

4. but it would be too difficult, because the app would come up with many ayats with same word, and typing in arabic is difficult for most of us, (including me)

5.ok, the book icon is from a font called Wingdings from ms office powerpoint.

6. ok but please mention me the size of the icons because i did it all manually in powerpoint and paint.
