Creating iOS apps begins with clarity about the audience, the app's purpose, and the scenario to address in the initial release. A solid discovery phase helps define the MVP, select suitable architecture, and skip features that seem impressive on paper but don't enhance actual usage.

After the foundation is in place, attention turns to UI behavior, performance, and reliability across iPhone models and iOS updates. Uniform navigation schemes, prudent state management, and thoughtfully planned integrations (payments, authentication, analytics, backend APIs) simplify maintenance and scalability after releasing on the App Store.
