On a flight, underground, or anywhere the signal drops, you still want to read and listen. These six apps were launched on HalaLaunch by indie Muslim makers and reviewed by hand before launch, including a halal-content check. For each app we note what its maker says works offline, so you know what to download before you lose connection.
