30+ iOS apps live on the App Store. 10+ years of dedicated Apple development. 100% Job Success Score.
I am not a generalist who "also does mobile." This is all I do.
Most developers spread themselves thin across React Native, Flutter, Android, and whatever else is trending. I made a different choice: go all-in on Apple and become genuinely world-class at it. Every project I ship runs on pure Swift and SwiftUI โ no cross-platform shortcuts, no compromises on performance, and zero sacrifices on native feel.
What my Apple-exclusive focus means for your budget & timeline:
โก No learning curve: I know Xcode, App Store Connect, and TestFlight cold โ you don't pay for my research.
โก Scalable architecture: Solid foundations from day one mean no expensive rewrites 6 months down the road.
โก Zero surprise rejections: I know the App Store Review Guidelines inside out.
โก Advanced Apple features done right: Smooth implementation of WidgetKit, Live Activities, iCloud sync, StoreKit 2, and Sign in with Apple.
๐ Tech Stack I Use Every Day:
Swift โข SwiftUI โข UIKit โข CoreData โข CloudKit โข WidgetKit โข StoreKit 2 โข HealthKit โข WatchKit โข XCTest โข Fastlane โข TestFlight
๐ My Track Record on Upwork & Beyond:
Top Rated badge with a 100% Job Success Score
10+ years of iOS experience (5+ years delivering top-tier projects on Upwork)
30+ shipped apps with 4.5โ + average ratings
10,000+ combined app downloads
๐ค I work best with:
Founders and product teams who want a developer who cares about the product's success, not just closing Jira tickets. If native feel, flawless App Store performance, and clean Swift code matter to you โ weโll be a perfect fit.
Letโs talk:
Drop me a message with a brief overview of what you're building. I respond within a few hours and am happy to jump on a quick discovery call to see how I can help bring your app to life.
