Today's offers, not last year's
Owners post what just came out of the oven, this week's deal or tonight's live music. Old posts expire on their own.

01The app
Twenty seconds, start to coffee.
This is the real app at phone size, recorded as it runs. Here's what you're watching.
- The live map. Every badge is a real Manama place. The little mark in its corner says whether the door is open.
- Ask the way you talk. “shawarma after 11pm” checks every kitchen's hours for 11 PM, not just for right now.
- Close and open. “karak near me” sorts every cafeteria by distance from where you stand.
- Tap a local ad. Shops can pay for a small card at the bottom of the map. One tap shows where they are.
- The whole place. Photos, hours, today's posts, and buttons to call, route or message the owner.
02Search
It reads sentences, not keywords.
Typos get fixed, times get checked, and “near me” means near you. These are real answers from the app, searched from Bab Al Bahrain.

03The map
One look tells you who's open.
Same round badge for every place: the drawing says what it is, the mark in the corner says if you can walk in. Drag through the day and watch hours in central Manama play out.

Closed
Every “come in, we're open” sign in the city, on one map.
04For locals
Less guessing. More going.
The whole place before you go
Photos, hours, price, Wi-Fi, terrace, parking. If the hours are our estimate and not the owner's, it says “est.”
Ask before you drive over
Message the owner inside the app. “Are you open Friday morning?” gets an answer, not a missed call.
Easy on the eyes at night
A proper dark mode, map included, for when you're deciding where to go at 11 PM.
05Manama first
Built for one city, road by road.
We started with one city: the Souq, Adliya, Juffair, Hoora, Seef and everything between. Places come from OpenStreetMap, the community map, and owners who join confirm their own hours and details.

09Questions
Fair questions.
Is it really free?
Yes, for everyone looking for a place. You don't even need an account to browse, search or get directions. You only sign in to save places across devices, write a review or message a business.
Where do the places and hours come from?
The starting map is OpenStreetMap, the community map of the world. Owners who join confirm their own hours, photos and details. Where nobody has confirmed hours yet, the app shows typical hours for that kind of place and marks them “est.”, so you know to double check.
Is there an iPhone app?
Yes, from Safari. Open the app link on your iPhone, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. It installs with its own icon, opens full screen and stays up to date by itself. An App Store version is being prepared.
Why an APK and not Google Play?
Business Finder is brand new and Manama gets it first, straight from us. The file's fingerprint is listed above, so you can check that the APK on your phone is exactly the one we published.
My business is missing or wrong. What do I do?
Open the app, tap “My business” and start your free trial. No card is needed: add your hours, photos and details the same day, and decide on a plan before the trial ends.
Does it track me?
Your location is used on your phone to show “you are here”, sort by distance and draw routes. Businesses see totals like “45 routes this week”, never who you are.
Is it only Manama?
For now, yes. One city done properly beats fifty done badly.
Is it in Arabic?
Not yet. The app is in English for now. Place names that only exist in Arabic are shown as they are written.
