VGuide SMA puts selected highlights from Sharjah Museums Authority’s collections on your phone, with expert-led audio and Sign Language content. Its official app descriptions cover Islamic art, archaeology and heritage. It is a useful way to add context to objects that catch your attention. Look for VGuide SMA under the Authority’s name on Google Play or the App Store. The guide covers a curated selection, so do not assume every exhibit has an entry. Check museum admission and visiting arrangements separately. Image: Archive photograph of a ceramic tile at Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization, March 2022.
