iOS, Android and cross-platform apps designed, shipped and supported in Dubai, from first prototype to store approval and beyond.
Grafdom is a mobile app developer with offices in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, building for everyone from emerging startups to established enterprises. Many of the apps we’ve shipped have gone on to win awards and earn featured placement in their respective app stores.
“Ship three features done well, then earn the right to add more.”
Every one of these went through App Store and Play Store review with our team handling submission, metadata and the first release cycle.
Brands we have built for
Loyalty, booking and service apps published for UAE organisations across hospitality, retail, government and finance.
Cross-platform is cheaper to build and maintain. Native wins when the app depends on hardware or needs to feel indistinguishable from the operating system. We tell you which applies before you commit.
Swift and SwiftUI builds for apps that lean on camera, wallet, widgets or ARKit, where platform feel matters most.
Kotlin builds tuned for the device range people actually carry here, including older hardware and low-bandwidth conditions.
React Native and Flutter when one codebase should serve both stores, cutting build and maintenance cost roughly in half.
The part users never see: auth, push, payments, sync and the admin console your operations team lives in.
Most failed app projects die between design and submission. The process below exists to make that stretch predictable.
User goals, competitor teardown and a feature list split into launch and later, so version one ships.
Clickable prototype tested with real users before a line of production code is written.
Full screen design in both languages, with an RTL layout treated as a first-class case rather than a mirror.
Two-week sprints with a testable build at the end of each, on real devices rather than emulators alone.
Developer accounts, privacy declarations, screenshots and review responses, handled by us end to end.
Crash monitoring, analytics review and a release cadence that keeps the app compatible with each OS update.
An app nobody discovers is a very expensive brochure. Store optimisation is part of the build, not an afterthought.
Apple and Google developer accounts, signing, privacy nutrition labels and review responses handled for you.
Title, subtitle and keyword field researched in English and Arabic for how people search in this region.
Store creative designed to sell the app in three swipes, produced in-house with our design team.
In-app prompts timed to moments of success, so reviews come from satisfied users rather than frustrated ones.
Icon and screenshot variants tested through Play Console experiments to lift install conversion.
Attribution set up before launch, so you know which channel is producing installs that actually retain.
The first release tells you what you got wrong. Budget for three months of iteration before you judge the product.
Every iOS and Android release deprecates something. We keep the app compatible so it never falls out of the store.
Install counts flatter. We instrument day-1, day-7 and day-30 retention and work on the drop-off that matters.
Crash reporting from day one, with a target of 99.5% crash-free sessions and a fix window measured in days.
Segmented, event-triggered notifications, because the fastest route to an uninstall is a badly timed broadcast.
Developer accounts, certificates and source code stay in your name. We are the maintainer, not the landlord.
Grafdom did an amazing job covering the INTERSEC Exhibition! They handled both photography and videography, and honestly, the results were fantastic. The team was professional, easy to work with, and really paid attention to the little details. They captured all the key moments perfectly, and the final photos and videos looked even better than we imagined. Definitely recommend them if you want someone who knows their craft and makes the whole process stress-free.

View review on Google MapsGrafdom handled our website design professionally from day one. They understood our requirements quickly and suggested improvements we hadn’t considered. The website now looks modern, loads well, and works perfectly on mobile. Communication was clear and revisions were done without delays.
