Pre-vetted iOS engineers working in Swift, SwiftUI and Swift Concurrency — and comfortable in the UIKit and Objective-C that most established apps still contain. We build new apps, take over inherited ones, and ship through your own App Store Connect account with your certificates. Pair an iOS developer with Android for both platforms, back them with a Laravel API, or see the full mobile app development service. International clients usually engage through the India outsourcing program — see country pages for USA and UK.
Transparent hourly rates, no hidden fees
New apps, migrations, releases and rescues — the whole iOS lifecycle.
Swift + SwiftUI apps built from scratch with MVVM architecture, offline support and a release pipeline from the first sprint.
Incremental migration through the interop layer, keeping the app shippable throughout instead of freezing features for a rewrite.
Inheriting an app from a previous team — code review, certificate and provisioning cleanup, stabilisation, then features.
Certificates, provisioning, App Store Connect, TestFlight, phased release, screenshots, privacy labels and handling review rejections.
SwiftData or Core Data with sync and conflict handling for field teams, logistics and anything used on patchy networks.
APNs push notifications, background refresh, background tasks, Live Activities and widgets where they earn their place.
StoreKit 2 in-app purchases and subscriptions, Apple Pay, Stripe, Razorpay, plus MapKit, camera, HealthKit and biometrics.
Instruments profiling, launch time, memory and scroll performance, crash triage through Xcode Organizer and Crashlytics.
Apple Watch companion apps, home screen and lock screen widgets, App Intents and Shortcuts integration.
Language, UI frameworks, architecture, testing and release — all of it.
Swift 5 and 6, Swift Concurrency (async/await, actors), Objective-C for legacy code, Swift Package Manager.
SwiftUI, UIKit, Auto Layout, Core Animation, adaptive layouts for iPhone, iPad and Split View.
Combine, SwiftData, Core Data, MapKit, AVFoundation, CoreLocation, HealthKit, ARKit, WidgetKit, App Intents.
URLSession, Alamofire, REST and GraphQL clients, WebSockets, Codable models, offline queuing.
SwiftData, Core Data, Realm, Keychain for secrets, CloudKit and Firebase for sync.
XCTest, Swift Testing, XCUITest, snapshot testing, TestFlight beta distribution.
Xcode, build configurations and schemes, Fastlane, Xcode Cloud, GitHub Actions, automated signing.
Xcode Organizer metrics, Firebase Crashlytics, MetricKit, App Store Connect analytics.
None of these are hard, but all three are cheaper to settle before a contract than after.
A $99-a-year Apple Developer Program account in your company name, with the vendor added as users. If an agency ships your app from their account you cannot release without them, and moving later is painful.
Most rejections come from privacy declarations, account deletion requirements, subscription wording or missing demo credentials for reviewers. We handle these as part of the release rather than treating them as surprises.
If your app is mostly screens over an API and you need both platforms, cross-platform costs less to build and maintain. We sell native iOS developers and we will still tell you when React Native or Flutter is the better purchase.
From your inquiry to your developer’s first commit — typically 48 hours.
Tell us what the app does, whether it exists already, your backend, and the state of your Apple account.
Within 24 hours, 2-3 pre-vetted iOS developer profiles with App Store apps you can download.
Video interview the developers. Optional paid 1-week trial on a real ticket.
Sign NDA + MSA with IP transfer. Developer starts within 48 hours. Daily stand-ups begin.
Swift vs Objective-C, SwiftUI vs UIKit, App Store accounts, whether you need a Mac, native vs cross-platform. Still have a question?
Ask on WhatsAppSwift for everything new, and SwiftUI for new screens. We read and maintain Objective-C because plenty of long-lived apps still contain it, and we migrate incrementally through the Swift and Objective-C interoperability layer rather than proposing a rewrite you do not need.
SwiftUI for new apps and new screens — it is where Apple is investing and it is far faster to build in. UIKit remains the right answer for complex custom controls, very fine-grained layout control, and apps that must support older iOS versions. Most real projects end up mixed, which is normal and fully supported in both directions.
Yes. We handle certificates, provisioning profiles, App Store Connect setup, TestFlight builds, phased releases, screenshots and the privacy nutrition labels. The Apple Developer Program account stays in your company’s name with us added as users — never the other way round. We also handle review rejections, which are usually about metadata, account deletion or privacy declarations rather than code.
Mid-level (4-6 years) is $20/hour, senior (6-10 years) $24/hour, lead $30/hour. Full-time is 160 hours a month, so roughly $3,200, $3,840 and $4,800. iOS runs slightly above Android because the supply of experienced Swift engineers is smaller. Rates include daily stand-ups and working inside your repository and sprint process.
No. Our developers work on their own Macs and devices. You only need an Apple Developer Program account in your company name, which costs $99 a year and must be yours rather than ours. For testing we distribute builds to you through TestFlight, so your team installs on their own iPhones without any setup.
Native iOS earns its cost when the app depends on platform capability — ARKit, HealthKit, complex gestures and animation, Apple Watch, widgets, deep system integration, or when iOS is your dominant platform and polish is the product. If the app is mostly screens over an API and you need both platforms, cross-platform is usually the better purchase and we will tell you so rather than selling two native teams.
Yes, and it is common work. We start with a code and architecture review, check the state of certificates and provisioning, document what we find, and agree what is worth fixing before touching features. Expect the first couple of weeks to be slower than greenfield work — that is the cost of not breaking things in month three.
MVVM as the default, with Clean Architecture layering on larger apps. Swift Concurrency (async/await, actors) and Combine for reactive flows, SwiftData or Core Data for persistence, URLSession or Alamofire for networking, Swift Package Manager for dependencies. On an existing codebase we follow your conventions rather than imposing ours.
Yes — XCTest and the newer Swift Testing for unit tests, XCUITest for UI flows, snapshot tests for views, and CI on Xcode Cloud, GitHub Actions or Bitrise so tests run on every pull request. On a legacy app with no tests we add coverage around the code we change rather than stopping feature work for a coverage project.
You do. We sign an NDA and IP assignment transferring source code, assets and build configuration. The Apple Developer account and signing certificates belong to your company. If a vendor holds your App Store account or certificates, you cannot ship without them — that is a dependency worth removing whoever you hire.
2-3 developer profiles within 24 hours, with App Store apps you can download. No upfront fees. 14-day replacement guarantee.
No long forms. Share your requirement in 30 seconds — we will WhatsApp you 2-3 pre-vetted developer profiles within India business hours.
