iOS, Android and web
One product on every screen your users have, not three separate builds.
From a rough idea to an app people can download.
BaioByte builds mobile and web apps for founders and teams in Egypt: iOS, Android and web, from design to store submission. A focused first version takes about nine weeks, on a scope and price fixed before development starts.
A first version that does one thing properly.
The fastest way to a good app is a small first version in real hands. We cut the idea down to what must exist on day one, then build that well.
Design through launch
Flows, screens, build, testing and release are one project with one team.
Store submission
We prepare the listings and submit to the App Store and Google Play.
Arabic first when it should be
Arabic is written as Arabic, not translated in at the end, and the layout follows the language.
Accounts, payments and data done carefully
Sign-in, payments and private data are designed in the blueprint, not patched in later.
You own it
The code, the documentation and a walkthrough are handed over at launch.
What nine weeks from idea to launch looks like.
This is the shape of a focused first version, not a quote. A bigger scope takes longer, and the blueprint says how long before you commit.
Store review times are set by Apple and Google, not by us.

- Weeks 3 to 6Core build, in milestones you can test
- Weeks 7 to 8Test, refine and prepare the store listing
- Week 9Launch and handover
Wadini: an Arabic-first app, built end to end.
Wadini is our own entertainment guide for Egypt's North Coast and Alexandria. It is built and in pre-launch, coming soon to the App Store and Google Play. Its listings are sample data until launch.
- One codebase for iOS, Android and web
- Arabic as the source language
- A group discount priced on the server
- Group chats and a day planner
When to build an app, and when to wait.
Build now when
- You can say who it is for and the one thing it does
- You would rather learn from real users than from a longer plan
- You need phones, not just a website
- You want a fixed price before you commit
Wait when
- A simple website would answer the same need
- The idea changes every week
- The first version has to do everything
- You have not spoken to one likely user yet
The same five stages, every time.
Discover, draft, build, test, launch. The scope and price are fixed at stage two, before any code is written.
- 01
Discover
We map how your business actually runs: who does what, in which tool, and where it breaks. The result is a short list of what the system must do, not a generic feature list.
You get: a problem map you agree with
- 02
Draft the blueprint
Every screen, every record and every connection is drawn before a line of code. Scope, order of work and price are written down, and you approve them.
You get: a blueprint with a fixed scope and price
- 03
Build
Development runs in milestones you can open and test as we go, not a long silence followed by a big reveal.
You get: a working milestone at every stage
- 04
Test and refine
Real people use it on real devices, in Arabic and in English. What feels wrong is fixed before launch, while it is still cheap to change.
You get: a tested release, ready to go live
- 05
Launch and support
We go live, hand over the code and the documentation, and stay on to maintain what we built.
You get: a live system, the code, and support
Do you build iOS and Android apps?
Yes. We design, build and launch apps for iOS, Android and the web, and we handle App Store and Google Play submission.
How long does it take to build an app or a system?
A focused first version of an app typically takes about 9 weeks from discovery to launch: weeks 1 to 2 for discovery and the blueprint, weeks 3 to 6 for the core build, weeks 7 to 8 for testing, and week 9 for launch. Larger systems scale from there with scope.
How much does custom software cost in Egypt?
It depends on what is being built, so we do not publish a single price. Every BaioByte project is fixed scope and milestone-based, not hourly: the price is written into a blueprint and agreed before development starts, so it does not grow as hours add up.
What if we need to change something during the build?
Changes happen. When one does, we talk it through and revise the blueprint, so its effect on scope, time and price is clear before anyone builds it.
What technologies do you use?
It depends on the job. Recent builds have used Next.js and NestJS with PostgreSQL, Electron for an offline desktop app, React Native with Expo and Supabase for mobile, and static sites on Cloudflare Pages.
Do we get the source code and documentation?
Yes. You get the code, the documentation and a walkthrough of how it works. We do not hand over a system that only we can maintain.
