Frequently Asked Questions
Google Speakers require your phone to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network to play the Azan at the scheduled times.
In contrast, Alexa devices do not depend on a Wi-Fi connection to your phone and can play the Azan even if your phone is turned off.
Additionally, Google Speakers rely on a mobile app to function, whereas Alexa offers a web-based, one-time setup solution, making it more convenient for users who prefer not to rely on their phones for their smart speaker's functionality.
