The Islamic SIM Service (ISS) is a new SIM-based application that will be showcased at Africa Com in Cape Town. It allows users of basic phones to track the direction of Mecca, receive prayer times, convert calendar dates, and automatically silence incoming calls during prayers. The ISS was designed by Yiannis Hatzopoulis to bring key Islamic functions to basic phones through a SIM card swap. It is currently being evaluated by mobile operators and could help attract religious users by offering Islamic features on basic phones.
