Looking for a developer who can build a premium iOS app and get it shipped within about 2 weeks. I have basically all the details mapped out and can give you everything you need to build it. I’m looking for someone who has experience building really polished apps with premium UI/UX, good animations, onboarding, privacy policies, data policies, etc. This is going to be a paid app, so I want it to actually feel premium and not like some basic template app. I’m willing to pay well for someone who can move quickly and actually execute.
The app is a gambling tracking app, but it’s not a casino or betting app. It’s designed to help gamblers track their gambling and make better decisions around it, with a lot of different features built into the app. For the design, I want the onboarding and overall experience to feel premium like Future Self, Cal AI, Quitter, etc. Good animations, clean UI, really polished UX. I can help a lot with the design and provide all the details/assets you need. Honestly, with ChatGPT image creation making it so easy to create high quality visuals now, I don’t think the design side should be insanely difficult. If you’re a legit iOS developer who can move fast and has built premium apps before, DM me with examples of your work and your rate.

Today the requirements to add/change screenshots have changed. No notice, no guidance!

On the main distribution page, your old images and preview vids are all locked! You have to go the See All page to make mods.

It’s a privacy-focused vault app that uses a custom gesture-based unlock, and we’re really excited to finally get it into people’s hands.
Since we just launched, we’re looking for some early users who are willing to actually try it out and tell us what they think — what you like, what feels confusing, what you’d change, features you’d want, bugs you find, anything.
We’re giving out 10 promo codes to people in this thread who want to test it.
No requirement to leave an App Store review or anything like that — we genuinely want feedback here so we can make the app better.
If you’re interested, comment below and I’ll send you a code. 🔐

Hi everyone,

I’m currently preparing an iOS app and I’m hesitating about doing a full localization for the Chinese market, since it represents a significant amount of work. Before committing, I’d love to hear about your real-world experience.

In particular:

Simplified vs Traditional:

If you localized for Chinese, did you go with Simplified (`zh-Hans` / `zh-CN`), Traditional Taiwan (`zh-Hant` / `zh-TW`), or both? How did you decide based on your target users?

Conventions & expectations:

What are the main conventions you had to adapt to (UI text length, date formats, form fields, payment flows, etc.)? Any specific expectations from Chinese users that surprised you?

Common mistakes:

What are the classic errors you’ve seen or made yourself (machine translation, mixing scripts, hard-coded strings, ignoring regional variants, etc.)?

ROI / was it worth it?

For those who did it: did the Chinese localization materially affect downloads, retention, or revenue? Was the effort justified?

If you have examples, tips, or “I wish I’d known that earlier” insights, I’m all ears.

Thanks in advance!

Quick questions for those who might have done it (or tried and failed): I developed and published a game in 2009, fully Objective-C then. It was quite successful and fun to play, but I had to pull it from the AppStore a few years ago when I hadn’t had the time to do a migration to Swift, followed by a lot of deprecations when Apple basically abandoned the Gamecenter that I never could really clean up. The whole app still shows up in my dev. account.
I am now thinking of recreating that idea, more modern of course. I was wondering whether I could simply replace the app, just even keeping the Icon (which I think is still great as it is) and revive that exact pulled app that way with a renovated version?

How long does it take on average for an app to be published in app store?

Per WWDC in June, Apple has finally launched new creative assets on the App Store.

They even flagged Custom Product Pages and Product Page Optimization allowing you to A/B test + customise different pages for specific campaigns as new.
