Yango's bilingual AI assistant Yasmina has launched new Ramadan features for February 2026, designed to support voice-first routines during the holy month. According to Yango Group's press release, the updates include calendar tracking, daily tips, and curated audio content in both Arabic and English.
Calendar tracking and prayer timing
The core Ramadan functionality centres around voice-activated calendar queries. Users can ask simple questions like "How many days until Ramadan?", "Which day of Ramadan is it today?" or "How much time is left until Iftar?" — the kind of practical questions that come up daily during the month.
For prayer scheduling, users can set Quran recitations to specific times with commands like "Set Quran on my alarm at 6pm." This builds on Yasmina's existing religious features, which already include Quran recitations by parts (juz') and specific surahs by various reciters.
Daily tips and audio content
Throughout Ramadan, Yasmina provides daily tips on practical themes such as intention-setting, respectful conduct while fasting, balanced routines around suhoor and iftar, and wellbeing habits, including hydration. The tips are brief and grounded in widely observed Ramadan practices.
For audio, Yasmina automatically sets Noor Dubai 93.9 as the default radio station during Ramadan. Users can also request thematic playlists with commands like "Yasmina, play Ramadan dua" — making it easier to transition between spiritual moments and everyday tasks without reaching for a phone.
Family Ramadan quiz
Families can access a dedicated Arabic Ramadan quiz featuring educational questions designed for shared learning and reflection. Users can start it with "Let's play Ramadan riddles." It's positioned as a light way for families to engage together during the month.
"Ramadan is a season shaped by rhythm — prayer moments, family gatherings, and small daily habits that carry meaning," said Rami Abu Arja, Senior Innovation Marketing Manager at Yango Group Middle East. "With these updates, Yasmina is designed to support that rhythm in a natural, voice-first way — from calendar questions and prayer timing to curated audio and short daily advice that fit into real home routines."
Yango Yasmina availability in UAE
The Ramadan updates are available now across Yango's full smart speaker range — Yasmina Lite, Mini, Midi, and Max. All models support the new features and can be purchased on Amazon.ae and through leading retailers across the UAE.
These updates complement the existing religious functionality, which includes Quran recitations and other faith-related voice requests. The smart home market in UAE continues to expand with culturally relevant features like these Ramadan-specific updates.
