Field notes
The homepage credits track data to RTA via Data Dubai open data and map data to OpenStreetMap. It says routes and voice guidance work offline, though background map tiles may not load. For privacy, start and end points are removed on-device; the remaining track fragments are not linked, and only totals from at least five contributions are used or published. When a street’s posted speed limit is unknown, the app estimates it from street type and warns that the result can be wrong.
