Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque: Audio Guide App Only is a self-guided audio tour attraction in Abu Dhabi, accessible via the TouringBee mobile app on iPhone and Android. The mosque, completed in 2007, is one of the largest in the world and holds several Guinness World Records, including for its chandelier size and carpet area. This product is the app licence only; entry to the mosque is free but requires a separate reservation, and no live guide or headphones are included.

The app delivers thirteen pre-recorded stories written by a historian, covering UAE history, Islamic traditions, the life and significance of Sheikh Zayed, the construction of the mosque, visual arts, and Quranic references. An offline map with GPS navigation guides visitors through the public areas at their own pace, which suits the mosque's requirement for quiet conduct. Commentary runs to approximately one hour and includes illustrations to help identify key architectural features. Booking covers one year of app access, making it usable across multiple visits. For more things to do in Dubai and the wider UAE, a full range of attractions and experiences is available.
