Looking for experienced IOS app developer!

Hey,

First off, I'm a bit new to the forums, so, hi! Secondly, I am a bit unsure whether I am allowed to post job/position applications on the forums, so please let me know if this is illegal!

Anyways, back to my main reason for creating this post.

I have been involved with apps and developing for a while now. Although I am no good at the 'coding' side of things, I can however, create nice UI's and designs.

I have had an idea for a social networking type app for the past few months. I don't believe it has been done yet, so have kept it quiet, researching, and learning about ways I could go ahead with the construction of the app. I have been sketching possible concepts and screen designs, and replicating different styles in Photoshop, and Sketch.

I stumbled across Treehouse a few weeks ago, and have already learnt how to build my own 'self destructing message app' or the magical 'crystal ball'. These have been great learning experiences, and I now know a lot more about the 'internals' of an app, due to these projects.

I believe that my idea has potential, and would like to find someone, who believes that also. If anyone on these forums is an expert at all things, XCode, IOS, and advanced coding, then please, let me know! I will list a few main functions of the app below. These are just areas in which you should have experience in, or features of the app, that may give you an idea of, if you are able to create it or not. I will keep them short and simple, e.g. Expertise in Login/Out Systems, etc...

  • Ability to develop (and debug) fully functional IOS apps.
  • Ability to create a working, secure log in/out & register/sign up system,
  • A 'Profile' page - Where the user can, change their profile picture, display name, status, and other features.
  • Ability to follow friends, and other users - Be notified when a followed user makes a post, says your name in a post, etc..
  • Ability to write small posts, (70 chars or less) and include a geo-location, (located automatically, or by the user on a map) and an image. This post will then be posted, publicly, or privately, dependent on the users settings.

These are just brief, but are the core features of the app. I will explain more features, in-depth upon request.

Thank you for reading my post! I look forward to seeing who replies, and hope that I may be able to work with one of you one day!

Cheers, Ryan
