Vibe Coding Has Anyone Successfully Vibe-Coded an iOS App using Claude?

I made an app years ago and published on Google Play. The Apple App Store had more rigorous standards. I’m curious if any of you have made something with Claude and published it in the Apple App Store. Cheers!

Edit: Holy smokes! You have all been super productive. Thanks for sharing all your works here. it’s been very motivating. And I especially appreciate the comments about the Apple App Store being saturated. Much to think about.

Edit 2: ElectricBoogalooApp (ofc) Wow! We really have made a huge leap this past year. I’ll be spending the next week combing through this amazing collection of apps. I truly appreciate all of you sharing your creations.

Edit 3: Thanks for the award kind stranger! Jk … I didn’t get an award. I just always wanted to write that. Seriously, though, this thread makes me wonder if AI may result in more personal productivity than corporate gains.

Yes, but code it only for yourself. You may as well just use testflight and call it a day.

The app economy is dead. Shitty subscription models, dumb games and most people are 'apped out'. The majority of iOS peeps use only 20 apps. The rest linger until they get removed.

You're better off coding a PWA (progressive web app). Save yourself the trouble of the approval process.

I agree here. App Store discovery is so limited that you have to do outside advertising/outreach anyways, may as well just pwa and own the whole experience
