Job Description:
We need an experienced iOS developer with access to an older Mac (macOS 13 or earlier) or an older iPhone that can run Xcode 14 to compile and release an existing app.
Our current developer's Mac and iPhone are too new to support Xcode 14, and we need to build and push an iOS 14-compatible version before upgrading to a newer Xcode.
Tasks:
1. Pull code from a private Git repository (we will provide access).
2. Run an automated setup script to install all required dependencies and configurations.
3. Compile and push the app to TestFlight for internal testing.
4. Once testing is approved, compile and push the final version to the App Store.
5. Upgrade the project to Xcode 15 (or possibly Xcode 16, depending on compatibility).
Requirements:
- Must have a Mac running macOS 13 or earlier (capable of running Xcode 14).
- Alternatively, must have an iPhone running iOS 14 (that has NOT been updated to iOS 17).
- Experience with iOS app compilation, TestFlight, and App Store releases.
- Ability to troubleshoot and resolve any compatibility issues.
Questions for Applicants:
1. Do you have a Mac that can run Xcode 14, or an iPhone with iOS 14?
2. Have you compiled and released apps via TestFlight and the App Store before?
3. Are you comfortable handling Git repositories and automated setup scripts?
4. How quickly can you complete this task?
Xcode 15 vs. Xcode 16 Upgrade Concern:
- Xcode 15 can support older iPhones, including iPhone X and iPhone 10 (running iOS 14 or newer).
- Xcode 16 drops support for older devices (iPhone 10 and some iPhone X models may no longer work). |
