PrayNow uses Shia-specific calculation methods (University of Tehran or Leva Research Institute, Qom). Different apps may use different methods, angles, or adjustments. You can change the calculation method in Settings → Calculation Method, and fine-tune individual prayer times with manual adjustments.

Go to Settings → Adhan & Notifications. Enable the prayers you'd like to hear the adhan for, and select a recitation for each one. Make sure notifications are allowed in your iPhone's Settings → PrayNow → Notifications.

Make sure: (1) Notifications are enabled in iOS Settings → PrayNow → Notifications, (2) your phone is not in Silent mode (the physical switch on the side), (3) "Time Sensitive Notifications" is allowed, and (4) you have selected an adhan for each prayer in Settings → Adhan & Notifications.

Go to Settings → Calendar → Hijri Adjustment. You can adjust by ±2 days to match your local moon sighting.
