iOS Developer Needed to Finalize & Submit SwiftUI Whiskey App to App Store (300–400 Fixed)

Job Description

I have a fully built iOS app (Whiskey Library) that needs final polishing and App Store submission.

The app was built with Claude Code + Cursor in SwiftUI, and I'm looking for someone who also uses AI dev tools to finish the job efficiently.

The app is 90%+ complete: 169 Swift files, 203 passing tests, 0 build errors, 39 bugs already found and fixed.

What remains is mostly operational work, not deep engineering.

What's Already Done

Full-featured app: discovery feed, barcode/label scanner, collection management, tasting journal, social feed, Shopify shop, profile/gamification, Firebase auth

203 automated tests (160 unit + 43 UI), all passing

Clean build with 0 errors/warnings

1,600+ bottle catalog with Supabase-hosted images

Detailed QA reports, production readiness docs, and for AI onboarding

What You'll Do

Secure hardcoded API keys (Shopify admin token, Gemini key) — move to xcconfig or server proxy

Hide or remove 8 "coming soon" placeholder features before review

Real device testing (especially barcode scanner/camera)

Fix any device-specific bugs found

Create App Store screenshots and metadata

Submit to App Store and handle any review feedback

Tech Stack

Swift 6.0 / SwiftUI / iOS 17+

MVVM with @Observable (not ObservableObject)

SwiftData for local storage

Firebase Auth, Supabase (image hosting), Shopify Storefront API, Google Gemini API

Requirements

Must have shipped at least one app to the App Store (share a link in your proposal)

Proficient with SwiftUI and modern Swift (not just UIKit)

Experience with Claude Code, Cursor, or similar AI dev tools (the project was built with them and has a onboarding file)

Access to a physical iPhone for device testing

Understands App Store Review Guidelines and common rejection reasons

Nice-to-Haves

Firebase Auth and Supabase experience

StoreKit 2 knowledge (for future subscription work)

ASO experience (App Store Optimization)

Budget & Timeline

Fixed price:

$300–$400. This is realistic because the heavy development is done — what remains is security hardening, device testing, and submission mechanics. With AI tooling, an experienced developer should be able to complete this in 6–10 hours.

Timeline: 1–2 weeks. Not urgent, but would like to launch soon.

To Apply

Please include in your proposal:

A link to an app you've shipped to the App Store

Which AI dev tools you use (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.)

A brief note on how you'd approach the API key security fix

I'll share a detailed handoff document and full codebase access with the selected developer. The project is well-documented with QA reports, test results, and an AI-ready conventions file.

Contract duration of 1 to 3 months.

Mandatory skills:

Swift, iOS, Smartphone, Mobile App Development, iOS Development, claude code, SQLite, Mobile App Bug Fix
