Overall Satisfaction with Xcode

We develop a native iOS app and using Xcode is the only way that we are able to deploy to our devices for testing and then to the App Store for distribution.
  • Debugging
  • Profiling
  • Great IDE
  • Sometimes it can be really slow
  • There are a lot of features we don't use
  • I use the interface builder tools were better at visualizing what the UI will look like
  • App Store distribution
  • Unit Tests
  • Crash Reporting
  • It's helped us gain worldwide distribution of our native iOS app
  • It's allowed us to build a high performance experience
  • It has allowed us to build stable software by helping us write unit tests
Xcode is a much easier to use and full featured IDE than many of the competitors. It also is a way better experience to use. Much better looking in general.

We are huge advocates of native iOS development and there is just real alternative when it comes to developing in Swift or Objective-C for the iPhone and iPad.
