xcelMeGary Bennett Let's talk
Mobile app development

Apple apps that work in the real world.

iPhone, iPad, Mac and Vision Pro apps in Swift, from first sketch to App Store review. Much of my recent work connects phones to physical things: buildings, badges, access points and cameras.

What you get

Where I can help

Location-aware apps

Geofences, polygon detection for buildings that share an address, and background location that holds up through a full workday.

Bluetooth and hardware

CoreBluetooth control of wearables and badges, and Bluetooth setup flows for Wi-Fi access points and ESP32 devices.

On-device AI

Vision OCR, Apple MLX and Apple Foundation Models, so smart features keep working offline and keep data on the phone.

Shipping and releases

TestFlight groups, App Store Connect automation, white-label builds for partner brands, and release notes.

App rescue

Taking over an app from another team: stabilizing it, fixing what field reports show, and getting releases moving again.

Vision Pro and Mac

SwiftUI apps that run across iPhone, Mac and visionOS from one codebase.
