Yango, the ride-hailing platform, has unveiled a new feature within its app tailored to assist Muslim drivers in managing their prayer times. This update, launched during Ramadan, not only aids in adhering to religious duties but also streamlines the distribution of Iftar boxes during fasting. Available for Yango drivers in the UAE, Morocco, and other regions, this feature integrates advanced mapping technology to locate nearby mosques and guide drivers seamlessly, even in unfamiliar areas.

Through the Yango app settings, drivers now receive timely reminders, 15 minutes prior to prayer times, with notifications automatically muted during prayers. Additionally, the app offers functionalities such as indicating the Qibla direction and calculating prayer times according to individual Islamic conventions. Islam Abdul Karim, General Manager of Yango in the Gulf Coast Countries, highlighted the significance of this update, stating that it not only enhances the work-life balance of drivers but also reflects Yango’s commitment to inclusivity and cultural sensitivity.
Future Expansion into India
In a forward-looking move, Yango has announced its plans to expand its operations into India before 2030, promising to introduce these innovative features to a broader audience. As Yango continues to evolve and cater to the needs of diverse communities, this expansion marks an exciting chapter in its journey toward fostering a supportive and inclusive environment for drivers worldwide.
