For Apple devices, learn Swift for iOS. Previously, you would have used Objective-C but this is not used for new apps. If you're creating from scratch; Swift is the tool for you.
Good luck!
Steve.

Swift is an object oriented language like Java, C++ etc. It is designed specifically for iOS, I believe.
You'd best start with the Swift language itself: Learn Swift, Intermediate Swift. Then move into the graphical elements of iOS with Beginner iOS and Intermediate iOS.
There are Game Development courses too which might be of interest.
Steve.
