Say hello to your free, friendly guide to the Dubai Metro!*

• Registration/Login-Free
You dont need to register or log in. Just download it & start using it right away.

• Train Timings**
See how long is left till the next train arrives at your station. No need to run when theres still 10 minutes till the next train. MetroMate can show you accurate train timings for any station on both the Red & Green lines.

• Smart Station Detection
You don’t even need to select a station, because MetroMate selects the one nearest to you. All you need to do is select the direction you’re headed to, & you’re set.

• Last Train Alerts
You’ll be alerted when the last train is leaving your station.

• Time To Destination
Once you’re on the train, you can select the station you’re headed to, & MetroMate will show you how long you need to get there.

• Nol Card
Check your Nol card balance. If your balance is running low, MetroMate will send you a notification to remind you to top up your balance, so you don’t get caught up the next time you’re rushing in to catch that train.

• Beautiful Design
Inspired by the designs of the Dubai Metro stations, MetroMate sports a beautiful interface in both English & Arabic.

• Offline Access
MetroMate works just fine when offline. You dont need an Internet connection to check train timings.

Pros and cons of MetroMate, by Scapehouse. app for iPhone and iPad

MetroMate, by Scapehouse. app good for

I cant even open the app!! The idea is very good, good luck guys and try to improve it ASAP
Verry Good App. Works offline and is Verry helpful. Shows the exact Timings and also warns You when your Driving in the wrong direction

Some bad moments

In my case, it doesnt work. Out from the real metro schedule.
I downloaded MetroMate after reading about it in 7 Days. Nice design and easy to use. Made a trip from Trade Center to Burj Khalifa and back and timetable in both directions are out by 3 mins. Not sure whether schedules are hard coded in app or retrieved in real time. The time shown at the stations definitely did not match the app. If this is rectified would rate 4-5 Stars.
