When to choose Swift (iOS)?
-
Advanced iOS features
Widgets, Apple Watch, Apple Pay, health, augmented reality, Siri shortcuts.
-
A mostly iPhone audience
An experience fully integrated into the Apple ecosystem.
-
The best performance
Image, sound, video processing or heavy on-device calculations.
-
An existing iOS app
Your app is already native: we develop it further in its own technology.
When it isn't the best choice
If you need to cover iOS and Android on a limited budget, cross-platform development (Flutter or React Native) costs significantly less: one codebase instead of two.
What we build with Swift (iOS)
iPhone and iPad app
SwiftUI interface, sync, notifications.
Apple Watch extension or widgets
Extending an existing app.
Objective-C to Swift migration
Gradual modernisation of an older app.
Update for the new iOS
Compatibility, new App Store requirements, fixes.
Takeover, migration and maintenance
Many older iOS apps are written in Objective-C or use abandoned libraries, and Apple regularly tightens App Store rules. We audit the app, make it compatible with the latest iOS versions, migrate gradually to Swift and SwiftUI, and handle publishing.

Frequently asked questions: Swift (iOS)
Native to make full use of iOS or mainly target iPhone; cross-platform (Flutter, React Native) to cover iOS and Android with one budget. We advise you based on your features and audience.
To develop it, yes, and that is our job. To use and manage it, no.
No: Swift and Objective-C coexist. Migration can be done screen by screen.
We check compatibility, fix if needed and republish: it is included in maintenance.
