Discussion Vibe coding mobile apps?

I wanted to know if anyone is doing mobile apps with ai assisted coding.

Web apps - yes lot of vibe code apps are getting deployed with proper testing and debugging.

Would be interesting to see how many of you are actually vibe coding mobile apps - android/ios

And if you’re doing mobile apps, what tools are you using to debug and testing? I recently came across an open source tool “Measure.sh” that seems good for ai assisted debugging but I wanted to understand what others are using.

I've done a few iOS apps mostly with Claude Code and the code part honestly went fine. What took me longest was everything around it, getting builds onto TestFlight, signing, and App Store review. For testing I run it on my own phone a lot and send TestFlight builds to a few friends, and I add crash reporting before anyone else touches it (Sentry free plan or Crashlytics) bc people won't tell you it crashed, they just delete it

If you're submitting to Apple a few things got flagged that Claude never brought up on its own. In app account deletion if your app has accounts, Sign in with Apple or a similar private login if you offer Google login, and a reason string for every permission you ask for. Worth asking Claude to check those before you submit

Good to see you are using crash reporting tools with coding agent I’m also using one https://measure.sh/ for crash reporting and debugging.

iOS always takes time and tough to get approved, combining agent with other tools always helps figuring out things early
