What works

Each part of the service, checked from Syria.

Core useWorks

The Anghami iPhone app opened from a Syrian connection and loaded its Explore page with Quran recitations, live radio stations and podcasts, showing no regional restriction.

Landing pageNot checked
Sign-upWorks

A test from a Syrian connection showed the tester using their own Anghami account in the iPhone app, so an account can be held and used from Syria. The account creation step itself was not captured.

Sign-inWorks

A test from a Syrian connection showed the Anghami iPhone app in use on the tester's own signed-in profile. The screenshot is filed under core use, because it shows the Explore page rather than the sign-in step.
