Frequently asked questions
Mobile app development in Dubai — what we do, cost, native vs cross platform, timelines, ownership and support.
A mobile app development company designs, builds, tests, launches and maintains mobile apps for your business. CodeShiper does all of this from Dubai for iOS and Android, and you own everything we build.
The cost depends on the size and complexity of your app. After a free discovery call you receive a clear, fixed quote in AED or USD, with milestones, so there are no surprises.
A native app, built in Swift for iOS or Kotlin for Android, gives the best performance for demanding apps. A cross platform app, built with React Native or Flutter, runs on both from one codebase and usually costs less and ships faster. We recommend the right fit on your free call.
A simple app takes about 6 to 12 weeks, while a complex app takes a few months. After discovery you receive a timeline with clear milestones.
Yes. We handle the full submission to both the Apple App Store and Google Play, and we help you set up the developer accounts if you do not have them yet.
