I used to make mobile apps as a hobby and I still get the weekly report of my dwindling numbers.
How do you get into this? Could you DM me the info and perhaps a good starting place? I can't work right now due to an injury and I'd love to look into this
My experience is with iPhone (yeah yeah boo Apple).
Most of how I learned was just digging through Apple’s documentation, focusing on one goal at a time. How do I draw stuff to the screen? How do I handle touch inputs? How do I use the built in UI elements? How do I play sounds? How do I get GPS data? Things like that. I’d usually have an idea of a specific mini-project that would make use of a specific new tool.
Note that I already had some programming experience (although it wasn’t much) before I started teaching myself this way.
Just start by downloading XCode and playing with one of their sample projects. SpriteKit is particularly easy to get started with and there’s a sample project for it. (I’m assuming you want to make something like a game. If you want to make more of a utility app, look up SwiftUI).

If you aren’t an
iPhone user“Apple fanboy”, you can try this: https://developer.android.com/coursesAlso many game engines (e.g. Godot, Unreal,
Unity) have support for both iOS and Android.Thank you man/ma'am! Bunches!
