I'd like to see equivalents of UIKit/SwiftUI components that do most of the layout/navigation heavy lifting for you. For most apps, either the iOS 18+ UITabController or UISplitViewController comfortably covers every platform, orientation, and screen an iOS app can possibly run on with a tiny fraction as much boilerplate and manual ratcheting as is required in Compose.

There are, watch the "Strike a pose with adaptive layouts" video they posed yesterday (https://developer.apple.com/iphone-duo/). High level components like split views will adapt automatically, while things like scroll views won't, so there are new adaptive views (AdaptiveView, UIArrangementViewController) to help you move things around.
