Android market is getting bigger everyday, and seeing the crummy apps out there this could be hit. I would love to take a peek at your app when it's ready inshAllah. So you would be entering
your masjid's all year calender locally one off, so yeah it would be simple elegant and would work.
i mean beats keeping 2-3 timetables in your wallet for sure and removes the niggles of 5 different prayer timetable calculation settings/daylight saving settings bla bla ...

Essentially it would not be more then that.
I mean it will have no other function except to show you the times for your local masjid.
Other larger areas such as Bolton which have council for the Masjids and agreed upon times for the community would benefit well if you are moving around the town and the time for prayer crops up and you need to pray [generally ladies I am thinking of here].

I may add one more feature that will show the time gap between two prayers ie. 2 hrs 13 mins, so if they are heading out they can time it well.

Like now I am sat here thinking I need to go and pray and I was sat there at Dhur time doing some work not knowing when Asr kicks in and really wanted to get this task done and push dhur as much as I could close to the asr time. Now that is really bad practice and Asr time could lapse here, but that is the weakness that kicks in, so the most important thing is not to let the time pass.

But it is my mother in law really lol she will from 10 - 15 minutes before the prayer time kicks say is it time, is it time, is it time and on and on and can not sit still [mashAllah] and since I do not know the time and second guess like 'urr not yet' and she will be like 'how do you know you not checked' and I will be shouting to 3 - 4 four people to go up stairs and check and they busy doing something else so I Have to get off my lazy back up the stairs and check! I mean how frustrating is that lol, its like I have to do all the work in the house. It is bad enough sitting in front of the fire all day watching people go to work and listen to their complaints about life, extremely taxing on my mind....lol

But yeah, it will be a good tool
