"I moved to Dubai alone and within a week I had three meetup invites. NAYBRZ DXB changed everything."
"The community chat rooms feel like a proper local hangout. I finally know my neighbours."
"Certified profiles make a huge difference. You can actually trust who you're meeting."
Everything you need to know — pulled straight from the in-app help centre.
Tap the gold + button in the bottom navigation bar to open the Create Meetup form. Pick a category, choose a Dubai location, set a fixed date & time (or switch on Flexible mode for a 5-day window), pick your gender preference and group size, write a short description, and hit Create. Your meetup goes live and a group chat opens automatically.
Open the More tab → Certify Profile, then take a live selfie in good light facing the camera. Our AI compares it to your profile picture instantly. If it's unsure, you can submit the same selfie to the admin team for manual review. Certified members get noticeably more meetup joins and chat replies.
Open the Home tab and tap Find meetups, or browse the map. Open any meetup card and tap I'm interested / Join. You're added to the meetup's group chat — say hi to the host — and the meetup appears in your Meetups Calendar.
Chat rooms are topic-based community channels (think "Dubai Marina runners" or "Newcomers to Dubai"). Open the Messages tab, switch to the Chat Room tab at the top, browse the list, tap a room to preview it, then tap Join. To start your own, tap the + button on the Chat Room tab.
When someone messages you for the first time, the chat lands in your Requests tab instead of Friends — keeping your inbox clean. Open Messages → ⋯ menu → Requests, tap a request to preview it, then Accept to move it to Friends, or Block to send it to Blocked. You can unblock anyone later from the Blocked list.
Free / Guest — browse meetups, users and chat rooms (no messaging, no creating meetups). Inner Circle (free for now) — host up to 2 meetups/month, schedule 7 days ahead, basic messaging. Gold Circle (~80 AED/mo) — unlimited meetups, schedule 30 days ahead, unlimited DMs, exact map locations and member discounts. Community & City packages are coming soon.
Upload a clear, well-lit photo of your face (no sunglasses, no group shots as the main pic), write a 2–3 sentence bio (the AI generator in the questionnaire can help), pick your interests, set your community (the area of Dubai you live in) and run profile certification to earn the verified badge. A complete profile dramatically increases joins and replies.
Gender preference is a personal filter that controls who can message you: Everyone, Males Only, or Females Only. It lives in More → Profile → Settings → Security → Privacy Settings. Keep "Allow others to message me" ON, then pick your preference and tap Save. Fully reversible any time.
Open the chat with that person, tap their name at the top to open the profile, then tap the ⋯ menu and choose Block or Report. Blocking stops you from seeing them; reporting alerts our team. You can do both — every report is reviewed.
Daily Goals are quick neighbourly actions — say hi (10 pts), send a DM (10 pts), join a meetup (15 pts), post in a group (10 pts) — that earn points, build streaks and unlock badges. Finish every goal in a day to earn a +25 bonus and extend your streak. Miss a day and the streak resets.
There's one master switch that blocks all new private messages: the Allow others to message me toggle in More → Profile → Settings → Privacy Settings. Turn it OFF and no one can start a new chat with you.
Open Profile → Send feedback, describe what you were doing and what went wrong (or what you wish existed), and hit send. The team reads every single one and usually replies within a couple of days.
Download the app, get verified, and meet the people who make Dubai feel like home.
