The integration, interconnectedness, and simplicity of digital services are the cornerstones of Dubai’s service delivery plan, according to Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council. This expedites Dubai’s transformation into a worldwide digital capital, according to His Highness, and makes the city’s services more accessible, effective, and safe.
H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed said: “DubaiNow’s milestone of exceeding 1 million users is a testament to the community’s confidence in the app, reflecting the degree of digitisation of life in Dubai.”
His Highness noted that the growing demand for DubaiNow services reflects the vision of the His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, to digitise life in Dubai and transform it into a global digital capital and the world’s best city in ease of access to services and quality of digital life.
Sheikh Hamdan said that the high number of users reflects the Dubai Government’s success in providing around-the-clock user-friendly smart services that serve all community members. It also reflects the collaborative efforts that lead to delivering global digital experiences that inspire others, H.H. said.
A unified platform for services, the DubaiNow app is part of daily life in Dubai. It is a result of the cooperation between various government entities and private entities to deliver services that exceed expectations and further promote people’s life quality.
The DubaiNow app offers access to 130 services from 30 government and private sector entities.
More than 20 million transactions worth more than AED10 billion have been completed since the launch of the app, including 4 million transactions worth AED2 billion this year.
Hamad Obaid Al Mansoori, Director General of Dubai Digital Authority, expressed his gratitude to the leadership, which places people in Dubai and the UAE as its top priority. The DubaiNow app symbolises Dubai’s digital leadership, he said.
Al Mansoori noted that the collaboration between various government entities had played a key role in the continuous development of the app, which has become an integral part of resident’s daily life. Al Mansoori noted that DubaiNow’s 1-million user milestone would encourage the Authority to develop the app further to meet people’s expectations and to deploy innovative technologies.
He also said such a high level of engagement would encourage the Authority to develop more successful experiences that make Dubai a digital role model and further raise its status as a global digital hub, thanks to the support of our leadership and the efforts of citizens to drive the digitisation journey and shape the future.
