To design iOS interfaces that comply with Apple's Human Interface Guidelines, apply platform-native patterns for layout, navigation, typography, and color. Ensure your SwiftUI and UIKit implementations meet specific requirements like minimum hit targets, safe areas, and contrast ratios.

Yes, this Skill supports both SwiftUI and UIKit projects for HIG compliance. It provides guidance across layout, navigation, typography, color, and motion, ensuring consistent and native-feeling interfaces regardless of the chosen iOS development framework.

The best way to implement Dynamic Type and Dark Mode is to follow platform-native patterns that enforce dynamic type scaling and adapt to dark mode scenarios. This Skill guides you through verifying contrast ratios and adjusting components to meet accessibility requirements.

To verify minimum hit targets and safe areas in your iOS UI, open your screen and check it against practical HIG principles. This Skill helps you enforce minimum interactive sizes and respect safe areas for thumb-friendly primary actions on iPhone screens.

You need to check your iOS app for HIG accessibility requirements when reviewing UI implementations and accelerating frontend work. Use this Skill to validate that layouts meet contrast ratios, support Dynamic Type scaling, and maintain consistent platform-native patterns.

When applying HIG principles to existing iOS layouts, limitations may arise from non-native components failing to scale properly with Dynamic Type or Dark Mode. This Skill focuses on enforcing practical requirements but requires adjusting existing UI elements to meet layout and accessibility standards.
