Go from “Where is it?” to “I’m on the way” with less friction. OTW Map is an Arabic-first map and driving-navigation experience for everyday trips. Search in Arabic or English, choose your destination, compare available road routes, and keep the map, route, and controls together during guidance. FIND THE RIGHT PLACE • Search for places and addresses in Arabic or English • Explore nearby fuel, restaurants, coffee, groceries, rest stops, and hotels • Press and hold the map to drop an exact pin • Review approximate search results on the map before navigating PLAN THE DRIVE • Calculate traffic-aware driving routes from your current location • Compare available route times and distances • Choose toll avoidance when the route provider can confirm it • Get a clear explanation when no continuous drivable route is available STAY ORIENTED • Follow visual and spoken turn-by-turn guidance • See lane and maneuver information when supplied for the route • Reroute automatically after a missed turn • Keep Satellite 3D or Streets 3D active from browsing through guidance • Let the interface switch between day and night automatically RETURN AND SHARE • Keep Home, Work, saved places, recents, and frequent destinations on your device • Share a destination link without sharing your current location or live trip • Open supported OTW Map location links directly in the app No account is required. Map, search, imagery, traffic, and route details depend on network availability and provider coverage. Always follow road signs and local laws. Do not interact with the phone while driving.
