I'm going to Mumbai.
Dopplr doesn't recognize Mumbai, but Bombay pops right up!
What's up with that?

Hi there. Thanks for your feedback.
The reason is that we use data from geonames.org, which uses local names (so - Mumbai) but in some common cases we've also linked up the English names to help people find them in Dopplr. For example, it used to be the case that you could only find Dublin by searching for its local place name, Baile Áha Cliath... a lot of people couldn't find it that way. So now you can search for either local or English name to find the correct destination.
It's a fix of sorts, but we know there are improvements to be made - and we're working on them as we speak.
I’m hoping you find this helpful
