iOS Developer | SwiftUI, RevenueCat, Firebase & Real-Time Apps

Most developers build you an app. I build you a product. There's a difference. An app is code that works. A product is something users keep using, and pay for. I know the difference because I've shipped both sides. I built core modules for Traderverse, a social trading platform that scaled to 28,000 users with real-time feeds, live portfolio tracking and Swift Charts. I've also published four of my own apps on the App Store, funded with my own money: Balancio, Just Invoice, Scan IT, and Nur. When you self-publish, you learn fast which decisions actually matter: paywall placement, subscription flows, onboarding, App Store review. For a client, I built most of Timey, a shareable alarm app on AlarmKit, now live. What I build: * Native iOS in Swift and SwiftUI (MVVM, SwiftData, Combine, AlarmKit, VisionKit) * Subscriptions and monetization with RevenueCat, StoreKit 2, paywalls, entitlements * Backend and auth using Firebase, Supabase, social sign-in, cross-device sync * Real-time data via WebSockets, live feeds, Swift Charts for financial and analytics UIs * Localization into 5+ languages including Arabic RTL with full UI mirroring * Shipping through Xcode Cloud, TestFlight, App Store Connect, ASO What you can expect: * Conservative estimates. I'd rather quote four weeks and deliver in three * Early warnings when something is at risk, not surprises at handoff * Honest scoping. If a request is outside my strength, I'll say so upfront * Products shipped end to end, from concept through App Store review and ASO I also work in React Native and Flutter for cross-platform projects, and build web SPAs in Vue and React, including Trader Analytics, a live equities dashboard with 80+ KPIs and subscription tiers. Both my Upwork contracts closed at 5.0 with 100% Job Success. Available for a call to talk through what you're building.
