Native iOS App Development with Swift & SwiftUI
Native iOS apps with Swift & SwiftUI. 96% first-time App Store approval. Launch in 8-12 weeks. From $25K.
What You Get
We Get Your App Through App Store Review (First Try)
App Store rejection is the silent killer of iOS projects. 40% of first submissions get rejected. We've submitted 50+ apps with a 96% first-time approval rate because we know Apple's guidelines inside out. Privacy policies? Check. Age ratings? Correct. Metadata? Perfect. We handle everything so you don't waste 2 weeks in review limbo.
Built With Swift & SwiftUI (Not Cross-Platform)
Cross-platform frameworks promise "write once, run everywhere." Reality: you get an app that feels wrong on both platforms. We build native iOS apps with Swift and SwiftUI. Smooth 120fps animations. Instant touch response. Proper iOS gestures. Your users won't know it's custom-built—they'll just know it feels right.
Designed for Real Humans (Not Just Developers)
A fitness app we built tested at 85% task completion rate with zero training. How? We watched real users struggle with competitor apps, fixed those issues, then tested with 20 people before writing a line of code. Good UX isn't about making it look pretty—it's about making it work instantly.
Ships in 8-12 Weeks (Not 6+ Months)
Most agencies quote 6-9 months for an MVP. We ship production apps in 8-12 weeks by focusing ruthlessly on features that matter. Week 4: You see a working prototype. Week 8: Beta testers are using it. Week 12: It's live on the App Store. No scope creep. No endless revision cycles.
How It Works
Discovery: What Are We Actually Building?
Week 1: 2-hour workshop where we map out your must-have features versus nice-to-haves. We create wireframes for every screen, define the user flow, and get written approval before writing code. No surprises. No "I thought you meant..." conversations six weeks in.
Design: Make It Look & Feel Like iOS
Week 2-3: We design the UI following Apple's Human Interface Guidelines (because App Store reviewers actually check this). You review mockups in Figma. We iterate until you're happy. Then we lock the design—changing it mid-development adds 2-4 weeks to timeline.
Development: Build, Test, Demo Weekly
Week 4-10: We build your app in 2-week sprints. Every Friday you get a TestFlight build to test on your iPhone. See real progress weekly, not vague status updates. We build core features first (login, main screens, data sync), then add polish (animations, edge cases, loading states).
Launch: Get It on the App Store
Week 11-12: We prep App Store screenshots, write description copy, submit for review, and handle any Apple feedback. Average approval time: 24-48 hours. Then you're live. We monitor crash reports for 90 days and fix any critical bugs within 48 hours.
Key Features
Native Swift & SwiftUI Development
Built with Swift and SwiftUI for buttery 120fps scrolling and instant tap responses. React Native feels sluggish by comparison. Your users will notice the difference.
User Authentication (Email, Phone, Apple Sign-In)
Full auth system with email/password, phone verification, and Apple Sign-In (required by Apple if you offer social logins). Includes Face ID/Touch ID unlock and secure session handling.
Push Notifications That Actually Work
Rich notifications with images and actions. Deep linking to specific screens. User segmentation for targeted messages. We set up APNs correctly so notifications deliver reliably—not the broken implementations that spam users.
In-App Purchases & Subscriptions
Complete StoreKit 2 integration: App Store Connect setup, purchase processing, receipt validation, and subscription renewals. One client processes $40K/month through their iOS app subscriptions.
Works Offline (Syncs When Connected)
App functions in airplane mode. We use Core Data or Realm for local storage, queue actions offline, and sync when connected. Users browse, edit, interact—data saves automatically when service returns.
Real-Time Features (Chat, Live Updates)
WebSockets or Firebase for instant bidirectional communication. Perfect for chat, live location tracking, or real-time data updates. One logistics app updates driver locations every 3 seconds.
Camera & Photo Library Integration
Profile photos, document scanning, receipt capture. We handle permissions correctly, compress images before upload, and use Vision framework for text recognition or ML features.
Analytics Dashboard (Know What Users Actually Do)
Mixpanel, Amplitude, or custom analytics tracking every screen view, tap, and conversion. See exactly where users drop off. One client discovered 60% abandoned at payment—we fixed it, conversions doubled.
Crash Reporting & Error Tracking
Sentry or Firebase Crashlytics integration with full stack traces, device info, and user context. Average fix time: 24 hours for critical crashes, 3-5 days for edge cases.

Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We've got answers. If you don't see your question here, feel free to contact us.
Honest answer: it depends on features. A simple 5-screen app with login and basic CRUD operations: $25K-35K. Mid-complexity with real-time features, payments, and notifications: $50K-80K. Complex apps with custom backend, multiple integrations, and advanced features: $100K-200K+. Our $25K MVP package gets you a production app in the App Store—not a prototype. Most clients start here, launch, then add features based on what users actually want (instead of guessing).
We build both. Your iOS app needs a backend API to store user data, handle authentication, and sync information. We typically build this with Node.js/Express or Python/Django, host it on AWS or Digital Ocean, and set up a PostgreSQL or MongoDB database. All included in our packages. If you already have a backend, we can integrate with your existing API instead.
We've submitted 50+ apps with a 96% first-time approval rate. How? We follow Apple's guidelines obsessively: proper privacy policy linked in-app, correct age ratings, no hidden features, compliant subscription flows, and "Sign in with Apple" if you offer other social logins. We also test on real devices (not just simulator) because Apple reviewers actually install your app and click through it. Most rejections happen because developers skip these details.
We include 90 days of post-launch support in every project. That covers critical bug fixes (resolved within 48 hours), crash monitoring, and minor updates. After 90 days, most clients either: (1) hire us for ongoing development at $10K-15K/month to add features, or (2) move to a maintenance retainer at $2K-3K/month for bug fixes and iOS version updates. Some hand off the code and manage it internally—we provide full documentation and transition support.
We specialize exclusively in iOS because building great native apps requires deep platform expertise. Android and iOS have completely different design patterns, development tools, and user expectations. Agencies that do "both" usually compromise on quality. If you need Android, we recommend our trusted partners who focus solely on Android development. Better to get two excellent native apps than one mediocre cross-platform app.
Our standard timeline is 8-12 weeks from kickoff to App Store launch. Week 1: Discovery and wireframes. Weeks 2-3: UI design in Figma. Weeks 4-10: Development with weekly TestFlight builds. Weeks 11-12: App Store submission and launch. Some agencies quote 6+ months—they're usually building unnecessary features or have inefficient processes. We focus ruthlessly on shipping an MVP fast, then iterating based on real user feedback.
Most clients do. The smart approach: launch with core features, see what users actually use, then build what they ask for. We offer ongoing development packages starting at $10K/month (roughly 40 hours of development time). Common post-launch additions: new features users request, analytics improvements, performance optimization, and integration with new third-party services. Average client works with us for 6-12 months post-launch.
We build for iOS 15+ which covers iPhones from 2017 onwards (iPhone 8 and newer). That's 95% of active iOS users. Supporting older versions is technically possible but adds development time and testing complexity. We test on multiple device sizes: iPhone SE (smallest screen), iPhone 14/15 (standard), and iPhone 14/15 Pro Max (largest). Your app will look great on all of them.
