Dubai — there’s an app for that. Whether you’re a recent expat or a life-long resident, here are seven apps to make your life easier and keep you entertained.

This list includes apps for food, laundry, training, and moving made easy.

Dubizzle

Known as the “Craigslist of the UAE”, Dubai apartment seekers will have no problem scouting new dwellings on Dubizzle. You can find everything from apartments, villas, and used cars for sale, to apartments and rooms for rent. Plus, you can buy and sell practically everything under the sun in its robust Classifieds section.

Ready for a career change? You can scour fresh job listings on Dubizzle’s Jobs section, along with insightful, informative articles to help you make your next professional move, too.

Property Finder

Looking for a flat, studio, or villa to rent? Look no further than Property Finder. Similar to Zillow or Trulia in the States, Property Finder makes apartment-hunting a cinch. You can quickly search to buy or rent using filters like property type and square footage, or whether or not you want a furnished dwelling.

Careem

What’s life in a bustling city without a ride-hailing app? As a leading ride-hailing app, Careem can get you a lift not only in Dubai, but also in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Al Ain and in cities in Pakistan and Turkey.

Some of the app’s nifty features include booking your ride for later and a sweet referral program where you can earn credits for future rides. Check out our “Money Interview” with the Careem co-founders, Mudassir and Magnus, to learn about how they approach their finances and investing.

Deliveroo

If you’re on the hunt for quick food delivery in Dubai, check out Deliveroo. Whether you want to maintain a healthy diet, indulge in decadent desserts, or order some catered eats for a company party, you can do it with the convenience of the Deliveroo app. From budget to upscale, the variety of available options can accommodate just about any craving.

NTC Nike Training Club

Whether you’re into High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), Yoga or Running, Nike has you covered for free. Check out Nike trainer Audrey’s class on endurance training, or learn how to run properly on Fridays. Make sure you reserve as soon as classes open, they get booked super fast.

Washmen

Pressed for time? Don’t waste another second of your busy day doing laundry.

Washmen, the UAE’s most popular dry cleaning app, has you covered. Simply fill one of their color-coded bags, schedule a convenient 30-minute pick-up time, and Washmen will have your items back to your door within two days. Their easy pricing structure lets you pay for exactly what you need, whether it’s a pressed suit or your entire wardrobe cleaned and folded.

The ENTERTAINER

Because there’s so much to explore and enjoy in Dubai, it’s easy to spend more money than you’d like. But with the ENTERTAINER lifestyle app, you can discover 2-for-1 deals on everything from your favorite restaurants, popular attractions, and travel deals, to discounts on suit rentals and haircuts.

After a free trial, you can purchase the app around AED445 per year. To redeem a deal, simply tap the offer, show your app when the bill arrives, and score some savings.

With just a few clicks and downloads, you’ll have all the convenience and fun of Dubai in the palm of your hands.
