Mobile apps in Dubai: which industries?
Real estate
AI chatbots and voice agents qualify buyer and tenant inquiries day and night, and route serious leads to brokers with full context.
Hospitality & tourism
Multilingual assistants answer guest questions, handle booking requests and free front-desk teams during peak season.

FAQ: Mobile apps in Dubai
Another question? Call us or book 30 minutes: we will give you a concrete answer.
Can your chatbots and voice agents speak Arabic?
Yes. Our AI chatbots and AI voice agents can be configured in Arabic and English, and in 50+ other languages if needed. For Dubai, we usually set up bilingual Arabic/English assistants that detect the customer's language and reply accordingly. We test the tone and key answers with your team before going live.
How do you handle data protection for Dubai clients?
We apply European GDPR standards by default and design solutions with the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021) in mind. In practice, this means collecting only the data you need, documenting where it is stored and limiting access. Sector-specific rules, such as those of free zones like DIFC, are reviewed with you at the start of the project.
How much does it cost to build a mobile app?
The cost of a mobile app depends on its scope, which is why we work with custom quotes. The main factors are the number of screens and features, user accounts, payments, offline mode, built-in AI, the back office and integrations with your tools. After a free 30-minute consultation, you receive a detailed quote within 24-48 hours.
Native or cross-platform: which should I choose?
For most projects, cross-platform development with React Native is the best choice: one codebase for iOS and Android, a controlled budget and maintenance, and a near-native experience. Fully native development makes sense for very specific needs, such as 3D games or heavy hardware use. We'll recommend the right approach for your project.
How long does it take to develop an app?
It depends on the number of features and the integrations required. We often recommend launching a focused first version (MVP), then expanding it based on user feedback. Your quote includes a clear timeline, and you test interim builds throughout development.
