FAQs
Common questions from United Arab Emirates clients
Can you build a bilingual Arabic/English app for the UAE market?
Yes. We implement full RTL/LTR switching, Arabic App Store metadata (name, description, keywords), Arabic push notification content, and Arabic-language onboarding flows. We test with UAE-based users on both iOS and Android.
What's the App Store submission process for a UAE app?
We handle Arabic and English metadata, UAE App Store territory settings, age ratings appropriate for UAE content rules, and any required UAE government registration (TDRA) for certain app categories. We've submitted apps to the UAE App Store specifically.
How do you ensure UAE PDPL compliance for mobile data collection?
We implement a consent management SDK, collect only the data fields UAE PDPL permits for each purpose, store personal data in UAE-approved cloud regions (AWS Bahrain / Azure UAE North), and implement right-of-access and deletion flows.
