Native or cross-platform?
Native apps are built separately for iPhone and Android. Cross-platform tools such as Flutter or React Native share most of the code between both. Ask each team what they propose, why, and what it means for future updates.

What we can help with
From idea to a working product.
Choose what you need. One request can cover design, development, integration and support after launch.
Scope before you ask for quotes
What exactly should developers quote for?
Pick your platforms and features. You get a scope checklist to send to every developer, so all quotes cover the same work.
- Each platform — iPhone, Android, web, admin panel — adds design and testing work.
- Features like payments, maps and chat each need their own screens and services.
- Integrations with your ERP or other systems depend on what those systems allow.
- After launch there is hosting, store accounts, updates and fixes. Ask for them as separate lines.

Scope checklist for developerssend it as is
- iPhone: iPhone app published on the App Store under your company’s developer account
- Android: Android app published on Google Play under your company’s account
- Admin panel: Admin panel for your team to manage content, users and orders
- Accounts & login: Sign-up and login by phone number, email or social accounts
- Accounts & login: Password reset and a way for users to delete their account
- Online payments: Payment methods (for example KNET and credit cards) and which payment gateway is used
- Online payments: Refunds, receipts and payment reports
- Arabic & English: Full Arabic and English, with right-to-left screens designed for Arabic
- General: Source code, designs and all accounts handed over in your company’s name
- General: A testing plan and a warranty period for bug fixes after launch
- General: Hosting, app store fees and third-party services listed separately
- General: A project plan with milestones, and payments tied to each milestone
A scope list, not a quote. Developers will still ask questions, but a clear scope makes their quotes comparable.
Buyer checklist
How to choose a development team
Most software projects that go wrong were unclear at the start. These six points keep yours on track.
- Similar work to show.Apps or systems close to yours that you can open and try yourself.
- Who does the work.The company’s own team or subcontractors, and where the developers are based.
- Fixed price or time and materials.What is fixed, and how changes you ask for later are priced.
- You own the code.Source code, designs and store accounts are yours when the project ends.
- Testing and warranty.How the app is tested, and how long bugs are fixed free after launch.
- Support after launch.A monthly or yearly plan for updates, new phone versions and small changes.
Know before you buy
Four choices that shape the project.
Start with a first version
A first version with only the essential features (often called an MVP) reaches users sooner and shows what they really use. Ask developers to split your scope into a first release and later phases.
Store accounts in your name
Publish the app under your company’s own Apple and Google developer accounts, not the developer’s. Moving an app between accounts later is extra work you can avoid from day one.
Arabic done properly
Good Arabic support is more than translated text: screens flip right-to-left, icons and numbers are placed correctly, and fonts are easy to read. Ask to see Arabic screens from their past work.

App development questions
How long does it take to build an app?
It depends on the platforms and features. Use the scope list above, and ask each team for a plan with milestones rather than a single end date.
Fixed price or paying by the hour?
A fixed price suits a clear, stable scope. Paying for time suits projects that will change as you learn. Either way, agree how changes are approved and priced.
Can a new team improve an app someone else built?
Yes. Choose “Improve an existing system” in the request. The new team will need the source code and access to your store and server accounts.
Do you recommend specific development companies?
No. We don’t publish lists or rankings of developers. We match your project with suitable teams and introduce them by name before anyone gets your contact details.
