Creating iOS apps begins with a clear understanding of the target users, the core task the app must perform, and the problem to tackle in the initial release. A solid discovery phase helps outline the MVP, select suitable architecture, and skip features that seem appealing in theory but don't enhance actual usage.

With the groundwork in place, attention turns to UI behavior, speed, and reliability across various iPhone models and iOS updates. Uniform navigation flows, thoughtful state handling, and thoughtfully planned integrations (payments, authentication, analytics, backend APIs) help keep the product maintainable and scalable after release to the App Store.
