It's obvious that no smartphone is ever complete without a suite of apps that complements the phone's owner. In fact, whichever apps a person has on their phone gives others a glimpse into his/her personality. After all, why would any one of us download something that is not important to us?
There are thousands of apps available on any smartphone. Today, we went the extra mile to give you a list of apps you should have if your life in Dubai is spiraling out of control. If your work-life balance is endangered, try out one of these apps.
What Hopper does is pretty simple. It allows you to monitor flight prices and notifies you when the cheapest flight to your destination is at its lowest. Say goodbye to expensive holidays and hello to luxury travel on the cheap.
If you haven't already downloaded this app, please do. It is crucial for every Dubai expat who uses public transport. Wojhati gives you a detailed breakdown of how to reach your destination from where you are now. It even gives you an estimate of the fare so you can do the math on the move.
Simply put, Digit helps you SAVE MONEY. The application does this by connecting to your bank account and then analysing your income. After it does that, it will show you the amount that you can safely set aside. Never spend beyond your means ever again!
What sets UberEATS apart from your regular delivery service? Two things: First it has a selection from the best places in town. Second, meals are delivered to you at lightning speed.
Use Pacifica if you need to de-stress. The app tracks your mood and health throughout the day to ensure you're always well. It also carries a suite of relaxation techniques for when you feel you need to take a deep breath. This relaxation app uses technology based on therapy for anxiety and depression.
Marhaba, bonjour and hola! Dubai is a culturally diverse city so learning a language or two helps a lot. But learning a new language costs money. Enter Duolingo, an app that will teach you any language you wish to know using free lessons. The lessons are both fun and comprehensive and teach you not only to speak the language, but to also read it.
Going for an Uber or a Careem is a matter of personal preference. Whichever you choose, you are transported to your destination. You won't even need to wait for a cab to pass by.
