What I do
Pick a format that matches your product stage
iOS app development
Full cycle from prototype and architecture to App Store release. SwiftUI or UIKit per requirement, clean architecture (MVVM / Clean), tests.
- SwiftUI and UIKit
- MVVM / Clean Architecture
- App Store release
macOS app development
Native desktop: menu-bar utilities, productivity tools, developer tooling. SwiftUI for macOS, AppKit, sandboxing, notarization.
- SwiftUI for macOS
- AppKit and sandboxing
- Notarization and Mac App Store
Swift and architecture consulting
1:1 sessions with your team: architecture reviews, SwiftUI vs UIKit, concurrency (Combine / async-await), modular breakdown.
- Architecture audits
- SwiftUI vs UIKit
- async/await and Combine
iOS code review and audit
An external fresh pair of eyes on your codebase: quality, risks, security, tech debt. Written report and a workshop with your team.
- Quality and security
- Technical debt
- Report and workshop
Performance optimization
Instruments profiling, fighting UI hitches, energy drains, binary size, cold start times — measurable improvements.
- Instruments profiling
- Startup time and FPS
- Energy consumption
App Store Optimization (ASO)
Keyword research, localized store copy, market-specific screenshots, reviews and metadata work to grow organic installs.

Frequently asked questions
If your question isn't here, reach out — I'll reply personally
What kind of projects do you take on?
iOS and macOS projects from prototype to mature products. Particularly interested in health, productivity, travel, developer tooling, and UX-driven products.How much does an iOS app cost?
It depends on scope: from 2–4 weeks for an MVP to multi-month product cycles. After a short discovery call I provide a transparent estimate and milestone breakdown.Do you work hourly or fixed price?
Both work. For exploratory and product work, T&M is usually best; for clearly scoped deliverables, fixed price with milestones is fine.Which time zones do you work in?
I'm based in UTC+3 (Moscow) and regularly work with EU and US teams. Typical overlap: 4–6 hours with EU, 3–4 hours with US East.How do you handle confidentiality?
NDA signed before work starts. Code and secrets stored in secure systems. No case studies published without explicit consent.Do you support apps after release?
Yes. Support formats: hot-fix only, monthly updates, or ongoing T&M development. I also take legacy iOS projects for audit and stabilization.What's the best way to reach you?
