Mobile App Development in Dubai.
iOS, Android and progressive web apps
Apps your customers and teams actually use: designed for the UAE, built on one secure backend with your website and systems.
How do I get a mobile app built in Dubai?
Start with a short brief: who the app is for, the main tasks it must handle and the systems it connects to. Hermitz Media turns that into a written scope, designs the key screens with you, then builds the app for iOS, Android or the web on one backend, with testing, store submission and support after launch.
What we build
Apps for customers and teams
Customer apps
Booking, ordering, loyalty and account apps that keep customers coming back.
Marketplace and community apps
Profiles, listings, payments, messaging and social feeds, like the ones in Tripsorb.
Field and staff apps
Checklists, approvals, job tracking and offline-friendly tools for teams on the move.
Progressive web apps
Apps that install from the browser and work on any phone, without app store fees or review delays.
Companion apps
Mobile access to an existing platform, CRM or ERP through secure APIs.
App modernisation
Rebuild slow or outdated apps on a modern, maintainable stack.
Native, cross-platform or web
Choosing the right type of app
We recommend the simplest option that meets your goals, and explain the trade-offs in writing.
- Progressive web app: fastest to launch and update; ideal when most users arrive from your website or WhatsApp.
- Cross-platform app: one codebase for iOS and Android, with store presence and push notifications, for most business apps.
- Native app: for apps that rely heavily on device features, complex graphics or offline use.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to build a mobile app in Dubai?
It depends on the number of screens, integrations and platforms. We quote after a short discovery call and give a written estimate. A focused first version is usually the most cost-effective way to start.
Should I build a native app or a progressive web app?
If most users find you through your website, search or WhatsApp, a progressive web app is often enough and faster to launch. If you need app store presence, push notifications or heavy device features, a cross-platform or native app is the better choice.
Do you publish the app to the App Store and Google Play?
Yes. We prepare the store listings, screenshots and privacy details and submit the app under your developer accounts.
Can the app connect to our existing systems?
Yes. We connect apps to CRMs, ERPs, payment gateways, WhatsApp and other systems through secure APIs.
