      Questions drivers ask

      What is Doroobi?

      Doroobi (دروبي) is a free navigation app for drivers in the UAE. It shows live traffic shared by the drivers around you, gives turn-by-turn directions with Arabic or English voice, and warns you about jams, crashes, roadwork, flooded roads and cameras on your route. It is made in the UAE by ITD Innovation.

      Is Doroobi free?

      Yes. Doroobi is free to download and use, with no ads and no ad tracking.

      Where can I download Doroobi?

      Doroobi is on the App Store for iPhone now. The Android version is coming soon to Google Play.

      Does Doroobi tell me if Salik is worth paying?

      Yes. Doroobi compares the toll route with the free one and tells you plainly how many minutes the toll saves and what each saved minute costs, at the peak or off-peak price.

      Does Doroobi speak Arabic?

      Yes. Spoken turns, alerts and speed warnings come in Arabic or English, and search understands Arabic place names. The whole app and this website work in both languages.

      Does Doroobi warn about speed cameras?

      Yes. Speed and red-light cameras show on the map, Doroobi speaks up at every red-light camera and at a speed camera when you are over the limit, and you can switch the alerts off in Settings.

      Where does the live traffic come from?

      From Doroobi drivers. The app combines anonymous speeds from drivers on the road with reports they send: jams, roadwork, crashes and closed or flooded roads. Drivers behind confirm a report, and false reports fade away.

      Do I need an account to use Doroobi?

      No. Doroobi works without your name, number or email, and your saved places stay on your phone. An account is optional, for things like trip history and family sharing.

      Which areas does Doroobi cover?

      Directions and the Doroobi Map cover the UAE and the wider Arab world, from Morocco to Oman, with Arabic place names. Live traffic is richest where most Doroobi drivers are, starting with Dubai and Sharjah.
