talgacapri iOS HIG Design
Use this skill for iOS app and iPhone interface work.
What this skill does
This skill ensures designs and specs align with iOS standards:
- Safe areas and layout behavior
- Navigation and information hierarchy
- Dynamic Type and readable typography
- Light and dark mode behavior
- Native controls and interaction patterns
- Accessibility including VoiceOver support
Best triggers
Activate for requests like:
- "iOS app"
- "iPhone interface"
- "SwiftUI design"
- "HIG compliance"
Review workflow
- Confirm iOS context (screen type, OS assumptions, device class).
- Check layout fundamentals:
- Respect safe areas, notches, and home indicator spacing.
- Ensure responsive behavior across iPhone sizes.
- Check navigation model:
- Use native patterns (tab bars, navigation stacks, modals).
- Keep back behavior and gestures predictable.
- Check readability:
- Support Dynamic Type and content scaling.
- Maintain touch target size and spacing.
- Check visual system:
- Verify semantic color usage for light and dark mode.
- Avoid platform-inconsistent controls and styling.
- Check accessibility:
- VoiceOver labels and logical reading order
- Contrast and state communication beyond color
- Return compliance gaps and exact fixes.
Output format
Return:
- HIG compliance summary
- Violations grouped by severity
- Fix recommendations with iOS-native alternatives
- Optional SwiftUI implementation notes if requested
Guardrails
- Prefer native iOS behavior over custom patterns.
- Do not trade accessibility for visual style.
- Keep interactions familiar to iOS users first.
