Balancing between work, family, friends, grocery shopping, working out and having some “me-time” can be challenging if you live in a city like Dubai and you have a fast-pace life. But that’s the case when you do not have a phone. We suggest you turn your mobile phone into your little assistant as it gives you all the help you need.
Spécial Arabia team rounded up some real deal apps every woman living in the UAE should have on her phone. These apps will be life-changing if you don’t already have them, we suggest you head to your app store ASAP!

Ounass
You definitely say you’re going shopping after work but you feel really tired once you’re out, or you plan the shopping day on the weekend but end up meeting with your friends. Now, especially with the pandemic and the restrictions still on, Ounass is bringing luxury to your phone’s door step in a click. If you’re a UAE resident, Ounass will make sure to deliver in 1-2 days.
You will be able to shop your favorite skincare and makeup products, biggest fashion trends, luxury home-deco and more through Ounass (As if you walked through the whole mall kind of experience).

Viya
Who doesn’t like a good deal? Viya is Dubai’s lifestyle rewards app, offering residents and visitors’ rewards and experiences across leading restaurants, leisure destinations and golf courses.
From restaurants and cafes, to gyms, spas, golf courses, pools and private beaches; Viya provides access to the good life in Dubai. And let’s be honest, we need that from time to time, but a good offer and some rewards won’t hurt.

Careem
Now that we’re closer to summer, the UAE’s weather is about to become even hotter. The city’s traffic is one thing and having to cope with it during a really hot day is just another thing. Careem’s app will provide you with fast taxi service keeping you happy and comfortable. This app should stay on your phone for any emergency as well. Do not miss out on it!

Instashop
Do the grocery shopping while sitting on your sofa, reading your favorite book and drinking your tea after work. Sounds like a dream yes? Instashop is the application that made things easier especially for working women. You can also have a scheduled delivery for when you get home, and guess what? At the same prices you find in-stores!
