Hire iOS developers for native iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch apps

Cross-platform tools are a good choice when you need iOS and Android quickly with one codebase. Native iOS is better when the app relies on Apple features such as HealthKit, widgets, Live Activities, Apple Watch or advanced camera and Bluetooth work, or when you want the smoothest possible feel. New Apple features also arrive in Swift first. We build both ways, so we will recommend the option that fits your product, not the one we prefer.

Cost depends on the scope and the number of screens, which Apple features you need, backend and integration work, whether you also want iPad or Apple Watch support, your timeline and the size of the team. A focused MVP costs much less than a full app with subscriptions, health data and a watch app. After a short call we give you a free, fixed quote, so you know the full cost before any work starts.

A focused MVP usually takes 8 to 14 weeks from kickoff to the App Store. You see the first TestFlight build in 1 to 2 weeks and a new one every sprint after that. Larger apps with subscriptions, offline sync or an Apple Watch app take longer. App Store review itself usually takes one to three days, and we plan a buffer for any reviewer questions before your launch date.

We cannot control Apple's decisions, but we greatly reduce the risk. We check the design against the App Store Review Guidelines during discovery, follow the in-app purchase and privacy rules, add in-app account deletion where needed and give the reviewer a working demo account. If a reviewer does reject a build, we read the guideline they cite, fix the issue or reply in App Store Connect, and resubmit quickly.

Yes. Many successful apps still have large UIKit or Objective-C codebases, and rewriting them all at once is rarely wise. We fix bugs and add features in the existing code, then move screens to SwiftUI gradually where it makes sense. SwiftUI and UIKit can live in the same app, so you keep shipping updates while the codebase gets more modern behind the scenes.

Yes. We add watchOS apps, complications, home screen and lock screen widgets, Live Activities and App Intents to existing iPhone apps. These share code and data with your main app through app groups and shared Swift packages. They are a good way to keep users engaged without opening the app, for example showing a delivery status on the lock screen or logging a workout from the wrist.

We use StoreKit 2 for products, subscriptions, free trials and offer codes, and we test every flow in the StoreKit testing environment and the sandbox before release. Your backend receives App Store Server Notifications, so access updates when users renew, cancel or get a refund. We also add restore purchases and follow Apple's rules on paywall wording, because unclear subscription terms are a frequent cause of rejection.

We support VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, Voice Control, Reduce Motion and high contrast on every screen. SwiftUI gives a good base, but custom controls, images and charts still need clear labels and a sensible focus order. We test by hand with VoiceOver on a real iPhone and with Xcode's Accessibility Inspector. Accessible apps also tend to be easier to automate in UI tests, which helps quality overall.

You do. We publish the app under your own Apple Developer Program account, either as an individual or an organization, and add our developers as team members with only the roles they need. The code lives in your repository from the first commit. You own all code and IP, and we sign an NDA on request before you share any details.

Yes. We offer post-launch support that covers crash monitoring, bug fixes, App Store review replies and small features. Each summer we test your app on the new iOS betas, so it works on the September release day. We also keep the project up to date with Apple's minimum Xcode and SDK requirements, which change yearly and block new uploads if you fall behind.
