The phrase is used in Dhaka Metro's pre-recorded audio announcement in a female voice after stopping at the stations in both Bangla and English. The older design standard is shown on the right, with the newer 'Mind the Gap' design standard to the left and on the platform itself, at centre.

It also can be heard in Chennai Metro in two languages (English and Tamil): " அன்புகூர்ந்து இடைவெளியை கவனத்தில் கொள்ளவும்" "Please Mind the gap".
