SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Evaluating the visual quality of an iOS app requires manually screenshotting every screen on a physical device and judging each against design guidelines, which is slow and inconsistent. This Skill automates that audit by connecting to a real iPhone, capturing every screen, and scoring each design dimension. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Real-device screenshot capture: Connects to a physical iPhone via the same StateServer used by /ios-qa and screenshots every screen in the app. - Guideline-based evaluation: Assesses each screen against Apple Human Interface Guidelines, the project's DESIGN.md, and general design best practices. - Scored feedback: Rates each design dimension from 0-10 with actionable "what would make it a 10" framing, mirroring the /plan-design-review workflow for browsers. - Use Case: Before shipping an iOS release, run the audit to catch visual inconsistencies, spacing issues, and HIG violations across all screens without manually reviewing each one. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to review the iOS design of the app running on the connected iPhone and score each screen against Apple HIG.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit the visual design of an iOS app?

Invoke the skill with a request like "review the iOS design" while an iPhone is connected. It screenshots every screen via the StateServer, evaluates each against Apple HIG and DESIGN.md, and scores dimensions 0-10 with improvement suggestions.

What is the difference between ios-design-review and plan-design-review?

ios-design-review audits a live, implemented iOS app on real hardware, while plan-design-review evaluates designs at the planning stage before implementation. For live web visual audits, use design-review instead.

Does iOS design review work on the simulator or only real devices?

The skill connects to a real iPhone through the same StateServer used by /ios-qa, so it targets physical hardware rather than the simulator. A connected device is required for the screenshot capture step.

What criteria does an iOS visual design audit check?

It evaluates screens against Apple Human Interface Guidelines, the project's DESIGN.md, and general design best practices. Each dimension receives a 0-10 score along with concrete feedback on what would make it a 10.

When should I not use ios-design-review?

Do not use it for pre-implementation design decisions, where plan-design-review fits better, or for web interfaces, where design-review applies. It is specifically for auditing implemented iOS apps on connected hardware.
