Crafting iOS apps begins with clarity about users, the problem the app solves, and the scenario to address in the initial release. A thorough discovery phase helps define MVP boundaries, select suitable architecture, and sidestep features that seem impressive on paper but don't enhance actual usage.

After the base is in place, attention moves to UI behavior, performance, and reliability across various iPhone models and iOS releases. Uniform navigation, robust state management, and thoughtfully planned integrations (payments, authentication, analytics, backend APIs) improve maintainability and scalability after launch.
