Creating iOS apps begins with clarity about users, the app's purpose, and the problem to address in the initial release. A solid discovery phase defines the MVP scope, selects an appropriate architecture, and eliminates features that seem impressive on paper yet don't enhance actual use.

After the groundwork is in place, attention moves to UI behavior, speed, and reliability across different iPhone models and iOS iterations. Uniform navigation schemes, thoughtful state handling, and well-planned integrations (payments, authentication, analytics, backend APIs) simplify maintenance and scaling following the App Store debut.
