Sound familiar?

  • App quotes from Abu Dhabi developers range wildly, and nobody explains what is in each one
  • Your team runs bookings, jobs or stock on spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups
  • A past app project ran over budget, or launched and was never looked after
What changes with App development

A scope you can compare

Screens, features, integrations and what is left for later, agreed in writing, so the price and dates are real.

Progress you can see

Design, build and launch in milestones, each one shown and approved in your client portal before the next starts.

Yours when it is paid

The work we produce becomes yours once its invoice is paid, with access to everything handed over at launch.

Is App development the right step for you?

A good fit if
  • You need a new site, a rebuild or an app with a clear job
  • You can supply or approve content and images
  • You want enquiries or sales tracked from launch day
Probably not yet if
  • You need it live within days
  • The scope is still undecided. Start with a call to shape it

    Mobile app development for Abu Dhabi businesses

    Most apps we are asked about in the UAE fall into two kinds. Customer apps let people book, order, pay a deposit or collect loyalty points from their phone. Team apps replace the spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups that field staff, drivers or sales teams use to log jobs, visits and stock. We start by agreeing which job the first version must do well, and what can wait for a later release.

    Whether your company is licensed on the mainland or in a free zone such as ADGM, Masdar City, KEZAD or twofour54, the process is the same: a written scope, designs for your approval, then the build in milestones.

    iPhone and Android app development in Abu Dhabi

    We plan the iPhone and Android versions together, so Android app development in Abu Dhabi is not an afterthought once the iPhone app is finished. Some jobs work better in a phone browser than as an installed app, and when that is the case we say so at the scoping stage, because a web app costs less to build and to keep up to date.

  3. 03

    Choosing a mobile app development company in Abu Dhabi

    Before you choose a mobile app development company in Abu Dhabi, ask each one for a written scope that lists the screens and features, the milestones with dates, who looks after the app after launch and what that costs, and when the code and accounts become yours. Two quotes that look far apart are often for different scopes, and the written scope is what makes them comparable.

  4. 04

    What an app costs in Abu Dhabi

    The price depends on the number of screens, features and integrations with systems you already use, and on who maintains the app after launch. Our starting price is shown on this page in AED, and no VAT is charged. Your quote sets out the full price and milestones after a short scoping stage.

  5. 05

    After launch: getting the app used

    An app only pays back when people install and use it. Your website, Google Ads and Meta Ads can point customers to the app stores, and we can plan that alongside the build.

What is different about App development in Dubai.

Personal data in your app

Apps that collect names, phone numbers or locations handle personal data. Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on personal data protection covers most UAE businesses, while free zones with their own data protection law, such as ADGM, follow their own rules. Your legal adviser confirms which applies to you, and we build to the requirements agreed in your scope.
