iOS and Android apps
Mobile app development in the UAE
iOS and Android apps for UAE retailers, service companies and start-ups whose customers already use some of the most polished apps in the region, and notice when yours is slower or clumsier.
Apps that hold up against the region's best
In the UAE, your app sits on the same phone as banking, delivery and ride-hailing apps that have set a high bar. That shapes how we work: we prototype the main flows first and test them with real users before building, keep onboarding short, and make Arabic a designed experience with right-to-left screens rather than a translation switch. Flutter or React Native suit most briefs; native Swift and Kotlin are used where performance or device features call for them.
Payments, instalments and receipts
Apple Pay is expected on iPhone, and Tabby or Tamara instalments are common for retail and services. We integrate these alongside card payments through Telr, N-Genius, PayTabs, Checkout.com or Stripe, keep card data off the device, and confirm each payment against the order on the server. In-app receipts show your TRN, 5% VAT and AED totals to two decimals.
From workshop in Dubai to the app stores
Discovery and design reviews can happen at our Dubai office, with build and QA by our remote delivery team. Apps are published under your company's Apple and Google developer accounts, with English and Arabic store listings and privacy declarations that reflect the PDPL. After launch we test each new iOS and Android release before it reaches your users, and fix critical issues under an agreed support plan.

Questions
Mobile app development: common questions
It depends on screens, user roles, integrations and whether you need an admin panel. We give a fixed quote for a defined first version after a short discovery, in AED or USD, so you know the cost before work starts. Later features are scoped and priced separately as you learn what users want.
