Custom Swift development services

You’ve probably used products built by our Swift developers.

Our senior engineers have delivered Swift applications for leading global brands. These projects consistently involve complex backend integrations, demanding security audits, and aggressive release calendars.

  • Enterprise iOS Applications

    We provide enterprise-grade iOS app development services, delivering products that demand strict uptime, predictable performance, and guarded data flows. Our app developers coordinate with backend, security, and design teams to align APIs, auth, and accessibility from the first sprint. We set latency budgets, instrument with MetricKit, and define release windows tied to business events. You get a resilient app that fits your architecture and deploys safely at any hour.

  • SwiftUI and UIKit Modernization

    Large iOS apps often accumulate layout debt, accessibility drift, and UI churn from years of incremental changes. We modernize codebases by introducing SwiftUI where it adds velocity while maintaining critical UIKit surfaces.  Our iOS developers view hierarchies, isolate risky patterns, and stage adoption behind feature flags. The result is a cleaner UI layer that moves faster without disrupting production.

  • Objective-C to Swift Migration

    Mixed-language codebases create maintenance overhead, security gaps, and delivery friction. We modernize them by migrating legacy Objective-C modules to Swift with measurable risk controls. Our process inventories APIs, sets version windows, and dual-runs parity tests during phased cutovers. You gain a future-ready codebase that can run on all Apple devices without interrupting ongoing development.

  • Mobile Architecture and Modularization

    Monolithic Swift apps slow teams, increase build times, and create brittle dependencies. We solve this by structuring large codebases with clear module boundaries and stable interfaces. Our engineers define domains, extract XCFrameworks, standardize dependency management with SPM, and document contracts in CI. So your teams can ship independently while keeping runtime behavior predictable.

  • Mobile DevOps

    Enterprise distribution requires staged rollouts, signing discipline, and reliable telemetry. We create and operate reproducible build and release pipelines for iOS development. Our teams codify build steps, automate test runs, and manage TestFlight cohorts with rollback playbooks. Your releases become routine, while we handle the heavy lifting.

  • Compliance-Ready Mobile Platforms

    Regulated industries demand audit trails, data minimization, and controlled access at every layer. We design Swift apps that meet HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR expectations. We apply least privilege, secure storage, and SSO with OAuth or OpenID Connect while capturing evidence throughout the lifecycle. Your products will pass audits without last-minute scrambles.

  • Performance Optimization

    Slow launches, janky scrolling, and memory spikes erode user trust in data-heavy apps. We tune Swift codepaths for startup speed, memory efficiency, and frame stability, profiling with Instruments to optimize concurrency and validate gains under load. You see faster launches, smoother interactions, and fewer production incidents.

  • Offline Sync and Data Persistence

    Field teams often work in environments where network connectivity is unreliable or nonexistent. We build robust offline experiences with conflict-aware sync, defining persistence models, batch writes, and retry policies, then verify integrity with chaos tests. So users can keep working without losing progress or data.

Their engineers perform at very high standards. We've had a strong relationship for almost 7 years."

The best partnerships are the ones you don't have to worry about. We deliver the kind of technical execution and reliability that builds long-term trust. It's why clients consistently praise our work quality and performance.

Tools for Swift development

The ecosystem we use for Swift projects:

Our toolchain is built on a simple philosophy: we choose mature, widely supported tools that enable teams to ship reliably at scale. The stack prioritizes long-term maintainability, security, and developer productivity, avoiding niche technologies that introduce risk.

  • Core Language and UI Frameworks

    Our approach starts with a stable foundation. We build on Swift’s core language features and favor Apple’s first-party UI frameworks, as they offer the strongest guarantees for long-term support, performance, and tooling integration.

    • Swift

Swift FAQ

What tech leaders ask about Swift before pulling us in:

  • How senior are your Swift developers, and will we work directly with them?

    You work directly with our senior, full-time engineers. Each has an average of 10+ years of experience on Apple platforms and has passed a rigorous vetting process focused on modern Swift development.

  • How do you vet Swift engineers for complex enterprise apps?

    Every Swift developer goes through a multi-month vetting process that includes hands-on technical tests and interviews specific to Swift development. We hire less than 1% of applicants. We evaluate architecture decisions, concurrency patterns, performance profiling, and secure data handling. We specifically look for engineers with proven experience applying these practices at scale, so you get senior talent that ramps up fast.

  • Do you offer individual developers or full dedicated teams?

    Both. We can provide individual senior Swift specialists to augment your team, or a complete, self-managed pod with a tech lead. In both scenarios, we adapt to your team's structure and workflow.

  • How quickly do your engineers start contributing?

    Our engineers typically onboard within 2 to 4 weeks, and start contributing code fast. Because our developers are senior engineers who've worked on projects similar to yours, they ramp up quickly and make meaningful contributions from the start.

  • How stable are your teams over time?

    Continuity matters, especially in long-term projects. We maintain high tenure across our engineering teams, giving you a stable foundation for delivery. And because we have more than 4,000 full-time engineers and thousands more coming in our hiring pipeline daily, we can quickly fill roles or rebalance teams whenever needed. When changes do happen, our onboarding and documentation processes keep knowledge intact. So delivery stays on track. 

  • Do we own the code you write for us?

    Yes, absolutely. All code, documentation, and related work product created for your project are the exclusive intellectual property of your company. Our Master Service Agreement (MSA) contains a clear IP assignment clause, ensuring you have full ownership and control over your codebase

  • Do you handle contracts and billing in the US?

    Yes. We are a US-headquartered company, so all contracts, payments, and legal agreements are handled domestically. This simplifies the procurement process for your finance and legal teams, as you're working with a US entity under US law, with no international payment complexities.

  • Can you work under our security and audit requirements?

    Yes, we’ve successfully delivered projects across regulated industries. Our development process is built to support strict compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA, and ISO 27001. Our CI/CD pipelines automatically generate audit trails that link every code change to pull request reviews, test results, and security scans. This creates a complete, traceable record for auditors without adding manual overhead for your team.

  • Can you migrate Objective-C to Swift without disrupting production?

    Yes. Our engineers specialize in modernizing large Objective-C systems without disrupting production. We use a proven migration framework (combining feature-flag rollouts, dual-run parity tests, and bridging headers) to keep both languages stable during transition. Each cutover follows documented runbooks with rollback points, guided by teams experienced in hybrid Swift/Objective-C architectures at enterprise scale.

  • Can we hire you just to fix performance issues in our existing application?

    Yes, we offer a dedicated performance optimization service. Our process begins with a deep performance audit using advanced profiling tools to pinpoint the root of the problem, whether it’s a CPU bottleneck, a memory leak, or an inefficient database query. We then refactor the critical code paths, resulting in a faster, more stable application and a measurably better user experience.
