5. IMO

Our very own Arab FaceTime. Okay, well it's not exactly an Arab-produced app but it's still a tremendous and less crowded version of chat apps like Skype and FaceTime.

7. Snapchat

Snapchat spurted out of nowhere a few years back and it has now been one of our favorite ways to share the contents of our day with friends and family members. The private/public options for this is also useful for those who don't want to be too public or 'out there'.

8. Google Maps

According to SimilarWeb, Google Maps is actually the second most used iPhone app in Saudi Arabia with a high ranking of 9. Makes sense why this helpful and life-saving app would be on our list, especially in Saudi, with roads and areas so large in size.
