Native Mobile App (Swift iOS / Kotlin Android)
About This Service
Native iOS and Android App Development (Swift and Kotlin) for UAE Businesses
I develop fully native mobile apps — Swift and SwiftUI on iOS, Kotlin and Jetpack Compose on Android — for companies in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah whose product demands more than a cross-platform framework can comfortably give. Native is the right call when performance is the product: heavy camera and AR features, real-time media, Bluetooth hardware, precise background services like continuous location tracking, or interfaces that must hit a flawless 120Hz on the latest devices.
Each platform gets a first-class build: SwiftUI views with structured concurrency on iOS, Jetpack Compose with Kotlin coroutines on Android, shared API contracts so the two apps behave identically against your backend. I engineer for store compliance from the first sprint — privacy manifests, data-safety declarations, background-mode justifications and permission flows written the way Apple and Google reviewers expect — so review readiness is designed in rather than discovered at submission.
Every build ships instrumented: analytics events mapped to your funnel and crash reporting via Crashlytics or Sentry, so from launch day you can see what UAE users do and what breaks on which device. For mainland enterprises and free-zone scale-ups that need the app to keep pace with annual OS releases, I offer a monthly maintenance retainer in AED covering updates, monitoring and incremental features.
What's included
- Swift/SwiftUI iOS app — A modern SwiftUI codebase targeting current iOS versions with native performance throughout.
- Kotlin/Jetpack Compose Android app — Idiomatic Kotlin with Compose UI, matching the iOS app feature for feature.
- Deep platform features — Camera, ARKit/ARCore, Bluetooth, widgets and background services where your product needs them.
- Store compliance engineering — Privacy manifests, data-safety forms and permission flows prepared for first-pass review approval.
- Analytics + crash reporting — Funnel-mapped analytics events and Crashlytics or Sentry wired in before launch.
- Maintenance retainer option — An optional monthly AED retainer for OS updates, monitoring and ongoing feature work.
How it works
- 1Technical discovery
We confirm native is the right architecture for your requirements and lock the feature scope for both platforms.
- 2Parallel platform builds
The Swift and Kotlin apps are developed in parallel against a shared API contract, with test builds delivered throughout.
- 3Instrumentation and compliance pass
Analytics, crash reporting, privacy declarations and permission flows are finalised and verified against current store policies.
- 4Release and stabilisation
Both apps are submitted and taken through review, followed by a stabilisation window where launch-week issues are fixed at no charge.
Why work with me
| With me | Typical agency | |
|---|---|---|
| Honest advice if cross-platform would serve you better | Sells the bigger build | |
| SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose, not legacy UIKit/XML | Often legacy stacks | |
| Crash reporting and analytics live at launch | Phase-two extra | |
| Post-launch support | AED retainer, same engineer | Ticket queue |
