SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Reviewing an iOS app's visual design on a real device is slow and subjective. This Skill connects to a physical iPhone, screenshots every screen, and scores each design dimension 0-10 against Apple HIG, your DESIGN.md, and design best practices, turning vague feedback into structured, actionable findings. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Real-device screenshot capture: Connects to a physical iPhone via the same StateServer used by /ios-qa and captures every screen automatically. - Scored design audit: Evaluates each screen against Apple Human Interface Guidelines, DESIGN.md, and design best practices, scoring dimensions 0-10 with "what would make it a 10" framing. - Workflow integration: Complements /plan-design-review for pre-implementation plan-stage review and /design-review for live web visual audits. - Use Case: After shipping a new onboarding flow, run the audit to get per-screen scores on typography, spacing, and HIG compliance, then hand the findings to your implementation agent for fixes. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to review the iOS design of the app running on your connected iPhone.

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

Invoke the skill with a phrase like "review the iOS design" while your iPhone is connected. It screenshots every screen via the StateServer and scores each design dimension 0-10 against Apple HIG and your DESIGN.md.

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

ios-design-review audits a live app running on a real iPhone after implementation. plan-design-review evaluates designs at the plan stage before implementation, and design-review covers live web visual audits in the browser.

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

The skill is built around connecting to a real iPhone through the same StateServer used by /ios-qa. It captures screenshots from the physical device rather than relying on simulator rendering.

What criteria does an iOS design audit evaluate?

Each screen is evaluated against Apple Human Interface Guidelines, the project's DESIGN.md, and general design best practices. Every dimension receives a 0-10 score plus a "what would make it a 10" improvement note.

Why does the iOS design review fail to capture screens?

Capture fails when no iPhone is connected or the StateServer session used by /ios-qa is not running. Verify the device connection and StateServer availability before invoking the audit.
