(05) FAQ

Questions, answered.

Do you build in Swift or Objective-C?

Swift for new work. Our engineers can also read and extend Objective-C code in older apps.

Can you handle App Store submission?

Yes. We prepare builds, metadata and review responses, working through your Apple developer account.

Do you also build Android?

Our Android and cross-platform engineers are listed on the mobile development page. Ask for both on the brief if you need them.

Can I interview the iOS specialist before I commit?

Yes. You review profiles, speak to the engineers and choose who joins. Nothing is charged until you confirm.

What if the person is not the right fit?

You can cancel a monthly engagement on two weeks notice.

Who owns the work?

You do. All code, designs and IP belong to you from day one, and work happens in your repositories and tools.

Do they use SwiftUI or UIKit?

Both. New screens usually use SwiftUI, while existing apps may rely on UIKit. They follow what your project uses and move gradually.

Can they handle App Store submissions?

Yes. They prepare builds, manage signing and respond to review feedback. Review times are set by Apple, so we plan allowances.

Can they maintain an older Objective-C app?

Yes. They can fix and extend it, and introduce Swift in new files so the app moves forward without a rewrite.

Do they write tests for iOS apps?

Yes. Unit tests for logic and UI tests for key flows run in your pipeline, so releases are safer.

What is an offshore iOS developer?

An iOS engineer based outside your country who works your agreed overlap hours, in your repositories and tools. You get senior iOS skills, often at a lower cost than hiring locally, with the same code ownership and review.

Can I hire a remote Xcode or XCTest developer?

Yes. Our iOS engineers work in Xcode every day and write unit and UI tests with XCTest, running them in your pipeline so releases stay safe.

How quickly can an offshore iOS developer start?

Typically within 5 working days of you confirming a profile.
