This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using some e-supporting apps in developing digital empowerment among public education teachers in light of quality standards for the instructional design. The study employed a semi-experimental approach with one group-pre-post-test. The study sample consisted of 90 teachers in the Summer Training Program at Taibah University in the year 1438-1439. The researchers used the following tools and materials: an achievement test, an observation card, and a scale of instructional design quality. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences between the average scores of teachers in the achievement test, the observation card, and the scale of instructional design quality in the development of digital empowerment in the post-test. The most important recommendations were: That electronic support apps. should be used o develop digital empowerment to become a formula in the development of digital content and the quality of educational design; to prepare teachers to meet the needs of the society, to encourage public education teachers to design new technologies for e-support; and to employ them in the design of all courses for different disciplines in the different academic stages.
