FAQ
Common Questions on Cost
Is it cheaper to build one app for iOS and Android or two separate native apps?
One cross-platform app (React Native or Flutter) is typically 40–60% cheaper than two separate native apps (Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android). The quality difference for most business applications is negligible, and you get a single codebase that is easier to maintain.
Why are Dubai app development costs higher than Pakistan?
App development rates in Pakistan (where our development team is based) are significantly lower than Dubai-based agencies — while delivering the same technical quality. Our hybrid model gives you Dubai-standard project management with Pakistan-based engineering costs, making our prices competitive globally.
Are there ongoing costs after app launch?
Yes. Plan for: Apple Developer Account ($99/year), Google Play Developer Account ($25 one-time), cloud hosting (€30–€200/month depending on traffic), and maintenance (€299/month with WORKFLOX). App Store updates are required when iOS/Android releases breaking changes.
How long does app development take in Dubai?
A focused MVP takes 6–10 weeks. A full-featured market-ready app takes 12–18 weeks. Enterprise apps take 20–40 weeks. Timeline is largely determined by feature scope and the number of third-party integrations, not by geography.
