I ship apps,
then write down how — before I forget.
I’m Craig Grummitt, a freelance iOS and mobile developer. I build utilities, games, and writing tools people actually use — and keep a public notebook of the Swift, Flutter, and platform oddities I bump into along the way.
A few things I’ve shipped
Subtitles Viewer
Real-time subtitles for cinema, TV, and streaming. Objective-C → Swift, plus Android in Java.

SwiftUI · 2026–
Music Vibes

Book and course
iOS Development with Swift
A Manning book for experienced developers getting their head around iOS — Swift, adaptive layout, data, networking, and shipping to the App Store. Prefer watching? There’s a companion video course too.
