Crafting iOS apps begins with a clear picture of the audience, the app's purpose, and the main problem to address in the initial release. A rigorous discovery phase helps outline the MVP, select an appropriate architecture, and steer away from features that seem impressive on paper but don’t enhance actual usage.

After the base is established, attention moves to UI behavior, performance, and reliability across iPhone generations and iOS releases. Uniform navigation, thoughtful state handling, and planned integrations (payments, authentication, analytics, backend services) simplify maintenance and future scaling after release.
