How much does mobile app development cost in Qatar in 2026?

+

Mobile app development costs in Qatar vary based on complexity. Simple apps (5-10 screens, single platform) cost QAR 55,000-110,000 ($15,000-$30,000). Medium complexity apps with both iOS and Android, payment integration, and admin dashboard cost QAR 110,000-255,000 ($30,000-$70,000).

Which is the best mobile application development company in Qatar?

+

When choosing a mobile app development company in Qatar, look for: 1) A proven portfolio of apps available on App Store/Play Store, 2) Expertise in both iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin), 3) Cross-platform skills (React Native, Flutter), 4) Local presence in Doha for face-to-face meetings, 5) Understanding of Qatar market and Arabic RTL support, 6) Strong reviews on Google and Clutch. SoftZena has delivered 50+ apps for Qatar businesses including fitness chains, delivery services, and healthcare providers. Our team is based in Almirqab Mall, Doha.

Should I build a native or cross-platform mobile app in Qatar?

+

Native apps (Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android) offer the best performance and full access to device features - ideal for gaming, AR apps, or apps requiring intensive graphics. Cross-platform frameworks (React Native, Flutter) let you build one codebase for both platforms, saving 30-40% on development costs. For most Qatar businesses - e-commerce, booking apps, delivery services - cross-platform is the smart choice. We've built successful React Native apps for Qatar's retail and hospitality sectors. Our <Link href="/services/software-development-services-in-qatar" className="text-primary hover:underline">software development team</Link> can advise on the best approach for your specific needs.

How long does it take to develop a mobile app in Qatar?

+

Development timelines depend on app complexity. Simple MVPs: 2-3 months (8-12 weeks). Medium complexity apps with payment integration and both platforms: 4-6 months. Enterprise apps with ERP integration, complex security, and multiple user roles: 6-12 months. We follow Agile methodology with 2-week sprints, so you see progress every 2 weeks. Our Doha team is available during Qatar business hours for daily standups and quick iterations.

Do you support Arabic language and RTL in mobile apps?

+

Yes! All our Qatar apps include full Arabic RTL (right-to-left) support. We design bilingual interfaces that switch seamlessly between Arabic and English based on user preference or device settings. Our designers understand Arabic typography and create culturally appropriate UI for Qatar users. We've built Arabic apps for Qatar government contractors, healthcare providers, and retail businesses.

Can you integrate Qatar payment systems like QPay?

+

Absolutely. We integrate all major payment systems used in Qatar: QPay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and credit card processing via local payment gateways. We've built e-commerce apps with secure checkout flows that comply with Qatar Central Bank regulations. Our apps also integrate with Qatar banks' APIs where required for fintech solutions.

Do you provide mobile app maintenance after launch in Qatar?

+

Yes! We offer comprehensive post-launch support: bug fixes, iOS/Android OS updates, new feature development, performance optimization, security patches, and 24/7 monitoring. Our maintenance packages start at QAR 5,500/month ($1,500/month) and include guaranteed response times. We also provide <Link href="/services/it-support-and-maintenance-services-in-qatar" className="text-primary hover:underline">IT support services</Link> for businesses that need ongoing technical assistance.

Can you integrate mobile apps with existing business software?

+

Yes, we specialize in integrating mobile apps with existing systems. We connect apps with ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics), CRM platforms (Salesforce, HubSpot), accounting software, inventory management, and custom databases. Our <Link href="/services/software-development-services-in-qatar" className="text-primary hover:underline">software development services</Link> ensure seamless data flow between your app and back-office systems.

Do you help with App Store and Play Store submission?

+

We handle the entire app store submission process. This includes: preparing screenshots and app descriptions (Arabic and English), setting up developer accounts, submitting apps for review, responding to Apple/Google feedback, and optimizing listings for App Store Optimization (ASO). We ensure your app meets all App Store and Play Store guidelines to avoid rejection delays.

What industries do you build mobile apps for in Qatar?

+

We've built apps across Qatar's key industries: Oil & Gas (field service apps, safety compliance), Healthcare (patient apps, telemedicine), Real Estate (property listings, virtual tours), Retail & E-commerce (shopping apps, loyalty programs), Sports & Events (ticketing, fan engagement), Education (e-learning, school portals), Hospitality (hotel booking, restaurant ordering), Finance (banking features, investment tracking), and Logistics (delivery tracking, fleet management). Our experience with Qatar's regulatory environment and business culture ensures apps that work for local users.

Why Qatar Businesses Choose SoftZena for Mobile App Development

Qatar's digital transformation is accelerating. With 99% smartphone penetration and growing demand for mobile-first services, businesses that don't have a mobile presence are losing customers to competitors who do. Whether you're a Doha-based startup looking to launch your first MVP or an enterprise needing a complex internal app, choosing the right mobile app development company in Qatar is critical to your success.

Our Approach to Mobile App Development in Qatar

At SoftZena, we don't just build apps - we build apps that generate real business results for Qatar companies. Our approach combines international development standards with deep understanding of the local market. We know that Qatar users expect apps to work perfectly in both Arabic and English. We understand that payment integration needs to include QPay and local banking options. We recognize that apps must perform well on both Ooredoo and Vodafone networks, even in areas with spotty coverage.

Our Doha-based team has delivered mobile apps for Qatar's fitness industry, healthcare providers, real estate companies, delivery services, and enterprise clients. Each project taught us something new about what works in this market. That experience translates into faster development, fewer costly mistakes, and apps that Qatar users actually want to use.

Mobile App Development Technologies We Use

We stay current with the latest mobile development technologies while focusing on proven, battle-tested frameworks. For cross-platform development, we primarily use React Native and Flutter - both allow us to build high-quality apps for iOS and Android from a single codebase, reducing your costs by 30-40% compared to building two separate native apps.

For projects requiring maximum performance - gaming apps, AR/VR applications, or apps with intensive graphics - we build native using Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android. Our backend developers use Node.js, Python, and cloud services (AWS Middle East region in Bahrain for low latency to Qatar users) to build scalable, secure server infrastructure.
