Questions about this service
Clear answers about app design and development with MetaGate
How much does app design cost?
App design and development at MetaGate starts from AED 5,000 for e-commerce store apps, AED 25,000 for service apps, AED 30,000 for brokerage (marketplace) apps and AED 40,000 for AI apps. These are approximate starting prices in the UAE. The final price depends on whether you choose a ready-made app customized for your project or a custom app built from scratch; the number and complexity of features such as payments, bookings, order tracking and notifications; an admin panel and separate customer and provider apps; integrations with payment gateways, maps or delivery companies; and the platforms you need (iPhone, Android and web). The exact price is set after a free consultation and written into the contract before work starts.
Do you design e-commerce stores and websites?
Yes. Mobile app design and development is MetaGate's first specialty, followed by e-commerce stores, and the company also designs and develops websites. MetaGate has launched more than 100 e-commerce stores and more than 250 websites. E-commerce store apps, which combine an online store with a mobile app, payments, order management and a control panel, start from AED 5,000. MetaGate also offers app and store management after launch.
How long does it take to build an app?
Building an app at MetaGate takes between one and four months at most, depending on the size of the app and its features. Ready-made apps with a defined feature set are usually at the one-month end, while custom apps with many features or complex integrations take longer. The timeline covers the project study, UI/UX design, development, testing and publishing on the App Store and Google Play. You can shorten it by defining your core features before starting, leaving extras for a later release and preparing content and images early; changing features during development or delayed decisions extend it.
Do I get full ownership of the code after the project is finished?
Yes, absolutely! At MetaGate, the client receives full intellectual property ownership of the app's source code as soon as the project is delivered and its terms are completed. This applies both to ready-made apps customized for your project and to custom apps built from scratch. Owning the source code means you are never locked in: you can host, modify and extend the app with any team you choose in the future.
How long is the technical support and maintenance warranty after the app launches?
MetaGate gives every client a free 6-month warranty after the app launches. During those six months the team provides technical support and ongoing follow-up and makes sure the app runs efficiently and reliably on iPhone and Android. After the warranty, maintenance, updates and follow-up continue as the final stage of MetaGate's process, and clients who want continuous care can use MetaGate's app and store management service.
