I tend to do relatively humble apps, most of the time (but I have been working on a pretty damn ambitious social media-style app for over a year and a half. It's still a ways from completion).
Pretty much a solo dev. I'm semi-retired (but work harder than I ever did, when earning a paycheck).
Since 2012, I've had over 20 apps on the App Store, but most have been retired. I think I'm down to three or four. I list them here[0].
I'm in the process of rewriting AmbiaMara[1] (I'll clean up the docs, as it gets closer to release). It's a ways off, but it's coming along nicely.
Sounds like a dream scenario. Pure native Apple development is without a doubt the most seamless, intuitive, and enjoyable dev environment I've ever worked with. And libraries like UIKit put anything the JS ecosystem has on offer to shame.
What type of applications do you? Are you contracted or a solo dev?
