Navigate the city easily, whether you're driving, walking, or using public transport. With our GPS-powered app, you can see your precise location and get convenient directions straight to your destination wherever you are — in Dubai, Baku, or any other city. The app shows you directions that avoid traffic, tracks bus schedules, and knows all those fast, easy walking routes that take you around obstacles. With Yango Maps, you get a stress-free driving experience with real-time updates on the road and clear instructions on how to navigate complex intersections. You'll get warnings about traffic jams, road closures, and speed limits ahead of time so you'll definitely get there on schedule. The app will also direct you to parking and fuel stations near your destination so that nothing stands between you and the places you need to go. You can get directions even without an internet connection — simply download an offline map for your city or region, and you'll never get lost offline. Yango Maps is also available in CarPlay so you can see your route laid out in front of you as you drive. This currently works in the UAE and Azerbaijan, and we'll add support for more countries in upcoming updates. Feel free to contact us at app-maps@yango.com
