iOS is a mobile operating system developed and updated by Apple Inc. It forms the basis for other operating systems made by Apple, such as iPadOS, watchOS, and tvOS. iOS is exclusive to the iPhone. There are nearly 2 million apps available on the app store for download, and iOS apps are proven to provide higher ROI compared to Android.
Here are some big-name companies that have an iOS app
An iOS Developer specializes in building native iOS and iPadOS applications
using Xcode, a proprietary IDE from Apple Inc., and has expertise in the official programming
languages used for development - Swift and Objective C.
Swift is the primary programming
language for developing iOS applications. Its precursor Objective-C is nearing its retirement
but is still being used by many legacy applications; hence knowledge of Objective-C is required
for iOS developers to maintain them.
iOS developers collaborate with the design team to
visualize the application's features, develop the application leveraging the power of the iOS
framework, test the app on different device types, fix any bottlenecks encountered, and submit
the application to the app store for review.
There are specific skills that you should look for in the iOS developer you hire
Swift and Objective-C are used for iOS app development. Swift is modern and easy to learn with powerful features like automatic memory management, functional programming patterns, and built-in error handling. Objective-C, derived from C, is still used in iOS APIs and applications. Developers should be proficient in both languages.
Xcode, the IDE used to develop iOS apps has all the developer tools required to design the user interface, write app code, compile code, test the code and app on various device types, and debug the app. It is absolutely necessary for the iOS developers to be proficient in Xcode to leverage the powerful set of tools it provides - Built-in Interface builder, live detection of errors, integrated build system, version editors, instruments and so on.
Frameworks and technologies empower developers to build powerful apps. Knowledge with frameworks such as Core data, Core Animations, CFNetwork, Core Location, Core Graphics Core ML, ARKit, Metal are helpful in creating cutting-edge apps and games.
Most of the mobile apps will require back and forth communication with backend servers to fetch/save user data and this requires profound knowledge of REST and SOAP API calls. Make sure to question the candidate on these web service architectures, how to choose between them, JSON and XML data formats and key aspects of communication - authentication and authorization.
It is not a luxury but a necessity these days for an iOS app to be beautiful and intuitive in addition to being usable inorder to stand out in the crowd. The iOS developer should be able to proactively collaborate with the UI/UX designer to bring out the best design output and an impressive user experience.
Yet another crucial skill to look for in any developer is deep understanding of Version Control systems like Git. He/she will be collaborating with a team of multiple iOS developers and backend developers hence working knowledge of version control systems is important to ensure code sanity.
