I mean, the example with the Saudi app is “just different”. It is you who are assigning a certain connotation to it. For example, Saudi culture may value keeping women safe and maintaining social cohesion, and this is a great example of fusing technology to fit a culture. Additionally, Saudi has a lot of cultural diversity that is easy to miss if you only look at the advertisements or news. Many of those in Saudi may not even find the use of such an app to fit their culture, and agree with you.
Anyways, be careful of using an example as a cultural judgement of society. It’s important to practice cultural humility. judgements may reveal more about the one doing the judging than the one being judged.
