Mobile app developer for Dubai startups and businesses

Dubai moves fast, and so should your app. I design and build Android and iOS apps for Dubai founders, service companies and growing brands, with a fixed scope and price agreed before work starts and WhatsApp as the direct line.

Sannan Malik is an independent app developer working with Dubai startups and businesses. He builds Android and iOS apps from AED 3,670 ($999), with backend, admin dashboard and Arabic support available, and agrees the scope and fixed price in writing before work starts.

Why work with me on App developer · Dubai

01

Launch-ready, not demo-ready

Booking, ordering, membership and service apps built with a real backend and admin tools, so you can run the business from day one.

02

English and Arabic

Bilingual interfaces with proper right-to-left layouts for customers across the Emirates.

03

Priced in plain numbers

$999, $1,699 or $2,500 for a defined scope, roughly AED 3,670, 6,240 or 9,180, instead of an open-ended agency estimate.

An app developer in Dubai without the agency overhead

Search for app development in Dubai and you will find hundreds of agencies and long "top 10" lists. Most of them sell a team; the price includes sales, account managers and an office. If you want a product built well at a known price, a single accountable lead can be the better fit.

You deal with me directly on WhatsApp and video calls in UAE business hours. The scope, the screens and the price are written down first, and you see working builds on your own phone as the app comes together, not just screenshots.

What Dubai businesses usually build

Most Dubai projects fall into a few patterns, and each maps onto a package:

  • Booking and appointment apps for clinics, salons and services (Launch or Growth).
  • Customer apps with accounts, ordering and loyalty or memberships (Growth).
  • Delivery and service platforms with customer, staff and admin roles (Scale).
  • Internal apps for field teams, linked to an existing system through its API (Launch or Growth).

Arabic, payments and launching in the UAE

Bilingual Arabic and English apps need right-to-left layouts designed in, not flipped at the end, so tell me early if you need Arabic. Standard payment integrations fit the packages; complex payment gateways are quoted separately. Apps are published under your own developer accounts, and if Apple or Google reject a build, I fix and resubmit it at no extra cost.

How it works

How it works: App developer · Dubai

  1. 01

    Scope

    We agree goals, users, screens and the riskiest unknowns, written down with a fixed price.

  2. 02

    Design

    Flows and high-fidelity screens, reviewed with you in short loops before development.

  3. 03

    Build

    Regular working builds you can try on your own devices, not just screenshots.

  4. 04

    Launch

    Deployment, store submission help and a handover so your team owns what was built.

Senior from start to finish

You work directly with a senior architect and certified product owner, not a junior after the sales call.

Design and engineering together

The person who designs your product also architects it, so nothing is lost in handoff.

The price is agreed first

Scope and price are written down before work starts. Changes are agreed before they're built.
