Scope before code
A short discovery pass that turns your idea into a screen flow, a feature list and a fixed quote — so you know what you're paying for before a line is written.
Service — Mobile App DevelopmentCairo, Egypt — open to remote
Need someone to build a mobile app?
Then you're in the right place. I'm Abdalla Tawfik, a mobile application developer in Cairo. I take apps from a one-line idea to production on both app stores — the kind people rely on daily: card payments that clear, screens that don't freeze, updates that reach every user.
No agency layers, no junior hand-offs. You talk to the person writing the code, you get a clear scope and a fixed quote before anything starts, and you get installable builds from the first weeks — not screenshots.

Every engagement is a real product, not a demo. Depending on what your idea needs:
One codebase, both platforms
Flutter for iPhone and Android from a single codebase — native look, native speed, half the build and maintenance cost of two separate apps.
The hard parts included
Payment gateways, logins and roles, push notifications, Arabic/English with proper RTL, and integrations with whatever backend or hardware you already run.
Store release, handled
Signing, listings, screenshots, review guidelines, TestFlight and Play Console tracks — your app gets onto both stores without you touching either console.
Life after launch
Crash monitoring, updates and small iterations after release. An app is not a one-time delivery; I stay reachable after the store approves it.
- Founders with a first app
You have the idea and the customers; you need a technical partner who turns it into a product without a rewrite every three months.
- Businesses going mobile
You already run on spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups or a website, and you're ready for a real app your customers or staff open every day.
- Teams needing extra hands
You have a product and a roadmap but need a senior Flutter/native developer who can own a module or the whole app inside your process.
The same path every production app of mine has taken:
01Scope
We talk once or twice, I write down what we're building and what we're not, and you get a fixed quote and a timeline.
02Design
Screens designed for your idea specifically — no templates. You approve the flow before build-out starts.
03Build
Weekly installable builds on your own phone. You see progress in your hands, not in slide decks.
04Launch + support
Store submission, release, monitoring and the first round of real-user fixes. Then optional monthly care.
- Flutter, first
Three years in production — apps for Unilever field teams, Abu Dhabi government, clubs and banks run on it. Both platforms, one codebase.
- Native when it pays
Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Swift and Objective-C through platform channels when a feature genuinely needs the raw platform — RFID readers, Wallet passes, background services.
- A backend that doesn't balloon
Firebase suite (Auth, Firestore, FCM, Crashlytics) sized to what you actually need — the running-cost line stays honest.
- Tested and observable
Unit, widget and integration tests wired into CI, crash reporting and release health from day one — so "it works" is a measurement, not a hope.
Apps I've built or shipped updates for run in government, retail and banking — from Unilever's field-sales suite to the Department of Culture and Tourism — Abu Dhabi.

One sentence is enough to start — you'll get a straight answer on feasibility, cost and timeline, usually the same day.
