Could you build this?

Partial While prayer calculation algorithms and basic UI are trivial, building a reliable background Android service that bypasses aggressive OEM battery management across manufacturers to control system DND requires low-level Android expertise.

What it would actually take: The frontend can be built in Kotlin or Flutter, using standard astronomical formulas (or adhan-java library) for prayer calculations. The hard part is building an unkillable background worker using exact alarms (AlarmManager.setExactAndAllowWhileIdle), handling OEM-specific battery optimization workarounds (Xiaomi MIUI, Samsung OneUI, OnePlus OxygenOS), and requesting/managing system Do Not Disturb and notification listener permissions reliably without failing silent state changes.
