Swift Developer
$50–$85/hr








End-to-end native iOS development in Swift 6 and SwiftUI. iPhone and iPad apps built to Apple Human Interface Guidelines — App Store approved, performance-optimized, and designed for user retention.
Augmented reality experiences on iPhone and iPad using ARKit 6, LiDAR Scanner, RealityKit, and Reality Composer Pro. Virtual try-on, spatial measurement, 3D object detection, and face tracking.
On-device machine learning using Core ML and the Vision framework — image classification, NLP, object detection, and predictive models that run offline without sending data to the cloud.
Healthcare iOS apps with HealthKit, CareKit, and ResearchKit integration. HIPAA-compliant data architecture, biometric authentication, PHI encryption, and App Store privacy label configuration.
WatchKit apps for Apple Watch — health tracking, fitness, notifications. visionOS apps for Apple Vision Pro — spatial computing experiences, immersive environments, and hand and eye tracking.
In-app purchases, subscription management, and App Store monetization using StoreKit 2 and RevenueCat. Paywall design, trial flows, cancellation reduction, and subscription analytics.
We define your iOS app scope — target devices (iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, visionOS), minimum iOS version, App Store category, monetization model (free, freemium, StoreKit 2 subscriptions), and required Apple frameworks. We identify which Apple-exclusive features (ARKit, Core ML, HealthKit) give your app a competitive advantage.
Wireframes and interactive prototypes designed to Apple's Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) — correct navigation patterns (tab bar, navigation stack), SF Symbols usage, Dynamic Type support, Dark Mode, and accessibility (VoiceOver compliance). Figma prototypes tested on real iOS devices before development starts.
Development in 2-week sprints using Swift 6 and SwiftUI (or UIKit for legacy requirements). Architecture: MVVM or TCA (The Composable Architecture). Combine or async/await for concurrency. Each sprint delivers a TestFlight build you can install and test on real devices — no waiting until the end.
Testing on physical iPhone and iPad devices across iOS 16, 17, and 18. XCTest unit tests and XCUITest UI automation. Performance profiling with Instruments for memory leaks, CPU usage, battery impact. Network condition testing (3G, airplane mode, offline). All bugs resolved per sprint — never batched before launch.
We handle the full App Store submission — screenshots (6.7", 6.5", 5.5" iPhone + iPad), app preview videos, keyword-optimized title and description (ASO), age rating, privacy nutrition labels, App Privacy report, export compliance, and reviewer notes. First-submission approval is our standard — we know exactly what triggers Apple rejections.
Apple releases a new iOS version every September — apps must be updated or risk App Store removal. We provide ongoing support: new iOS compatibility updates, Xcode version migrations, new Apple API adoption (we were early on SwiftUI, Combine, and async/await), crash monitoring via Firebase Crashlytics, and feature development post-launch.
Not every iOS project needs the same expertise. Hire a Swift generalist, an ARKit specialist, or a full-stack iOS engineer — we match you with the right profile.
