Now, what is the most import<strong>an</strong>t part about creating iOS<br />

apps? “Well, I would w<strong>an</strong>t <strong>to</strong> ensure that the comp<strong>an</strong>y that<br />

offers iOS application development services, follows<br />

st<strong>an</strong>dard practices for the accept<strong>an</strong>ce of my business apps on<br />

the Apple s<strong>to</strong>re.” You might say.<br />

It is not wrong <strong>to</strong> expect the success of your apps. But the<br />

question here is, do you have what it takes <strong>to</strong> recognize the<br />

potential of <strong>an</strong> <strong>iPhone</strong> developer? Are you aware of the traits<br />

that your developer should have for developing the app in<br />

question?<br />

Here are few things <strong>to</strong> know before you hire <strong>an</strong> <strong>iPhone</strong><br />

developer for cus<strong>to</strong>m <strong>iPhone</strong> App Development:<br />

1. Be Explicit with Your Requirements<br />

Primarily, you need <strong>to</strong> know whether you w<strong>an</strong>t the<br />

developer <strong>to</strong> work remotely or from within your comp<strong>an</strong>y.<br />

Once you have clarity with that, you c<strong>an</strong> focus on the<br />

qualifications you w<strong>an</strong>t the iOS developers <strong>to</strong> have. Make<br />

sure the requirement documents you create is not superficial<br />

<strong>an</strong>d mentions your needs clearly <strong>an</strong>d precisely.<br />

When you give this <strong>to</strong> the comp<strong>an</strong>y providing iOS<br />

application development services, you c<strong>an</strong> save your time<br />

<strong>an</strong>d interview only the relev<strong>an</strong>t developers.<br />

2. It is Not Just About Coding Skills<br />

Yes. Do not limit iOS App development <strong>to</strong> just the coding<br />

part. This is because, there is much more <strong>to</strong> <strong>an</strong> app th<strong>an</strong> just<br />

coding. You would w<strong>an</strong>t <strong>to</strong> have a strategized functional<br />

design <strong>an</strong>d render a good user experience. Hence, it is better<br />

not <strong>to</strong> go for a developer that is just in<strong>to</strong> coding but also<br />

underst<strong>an</strong>ds the nu<strong>an</strong>ces of design, utility <strong>an</strong>d testing aspect<br />

of the app. So, when you speak with the iOS developer,<br />

ensure that they do not just flaunt about their coding skills<br />

<strong>an</strong>d give lesser experience <strong>to</strong> the usability of the app.<br />

3. <strong>Know</strong>ledge of iOS Frameworks & Latest<br />

Technologies<br />

<strong>Before</strong> you choose a developer; it is possible that you might<br />

not have knowledge about iOS frameworks <strong>an</strong>d other<br />

technologies. During such times, you c<strong>an</strong> conduct a little<br />

research or ask a person with the technical knowhow <strong>to</strong><br />

speak with the <strong>iPhone</strong> developers you are about <strong>to</strong> hire.<br />

Try <strong>to</strong> know about their skills in Swift l<strong>an</strong>guage, networking,<br />

spatial reasoning, design guidelines, Gr<strong>an</strong>d Central Dispatch<br />

etc. PhoneGap iOS Development is also a lot in trend; so, try<br />

<strong>to</strong> know if they have <strong>an</strong>y experience with the same.<br />

4. Check the Ability <strong>to</strong> Grasp New Ideas<br />

Some <strong>iPhone</strong> application developers tend <strong>to</strong> keep confined <strong>to</strong><br />

the technologies they know <strong>an</strong>d operate upon. It is ideal not<br />

<strong>to</strong> strike a deal with a comp<strong>an</strong>y that works with such kind of<br />

developers. When you have a meeting with developers, look<br />

for passionate professionals who have the potential <strong>to</strong> grasp<br />

new technologies, ability <strong>to</strong> come up with fresh ideas <strong>an</strong>d<br />

work with <strong>an</strong> underst<strong>an</strong>ding of your comp<strong>an</strong>y objectives.<br />

Remember, creatively built apps will take your business <strong>to</strong> a<br />

whole <strong>an</strong>other level.<br />

5. <strong>Hire</strong> <strong>an</strong> Experienced Professional<br />

You might need <strong>iPhone</strong> app development services in two<br />

scenarios. One, when you w<strong>an</strong>t <strong>to</strong> develop <strong>an</strong> <strong>iPhone</strong> app<br />

from the scratch. And two, when you already have <strong>an</strong> app<br />

that needs bug fixing <strong>an</strong>d problem solving. During such<br />

times, you need <strong>to</strong> hire <strong>iPhone</strong> developer that has <strong>an</strong><br />

experience of solving these problems quickly <strong>an</strong>d easily.<br />

Also, they must be team players who work along with other<br />

developers <strong>an</strong>d are good at team m<strong>an</strong>agement.<br />

This is import<strong>an</strong>t because there is a possibility of the senior<br />

developer not being around all the time. By allocating<br />

different tasks of the development <strong>to</strong> different developers, he<br />

c<strong>an</strong> get the work done faster <strong>an</strong>d in lesser amount of time.<br />

6. Ask for Client References<br />

Last but not the least, if you are striking a deal with a<br />

comp<strong>an</strong>y providing cus<strong>to</strong>m <strong>iPhone</strong> app development, you<br />

must ask them <strong>to</strong> share references from the previous clients.<br />

You c<strong>an</strong> also go through the testimonials available on the<br />

page of their websites. By looking at the feedbacks, you c<strong>an</strong><br />

get <strong>an</strong> underst<strong>an</strong>ding about their potential <strong>to</strong> create your<br />

<strong>iPhone</strong> app <strong>an</strong>d their approach <strong>to</strong>wards problem solving.<br />

Beware of the comp<strong>an</strong>ies that display ingenuine <strong>an</strong>d fake<br />

reviews as it might put you in a fix at a later stage.<br />

Screening procedures for iOS developers are no different<br />

th<strong>an</strong> hiring Android developers or for <strong>an</strong>y other platform. All<br />

you need <strong>to</strong> do is be clear with your requirements <strong>an</strong>d follow<br />

the above given steps. Tell us about the good experiences<br />

you have had with iOS developers. Even if you have had bad<br />

experiences, feel free <strong>to</strong> share with us!<br />
