Workshop: Foundation Models
Senior iOS Developer, United Airlines
Vince loves all things SwiftUI. At iOS Conf SG 2025 he showed how App Intents and Live Activities change the way people use an app, and he’s back for 2027.

Software Engineer, Photoroom
Vincent has been building iOS apps since 2011. On his YouTube channel, he’s shared nearly 400 videos with practical tips to help developers sharpen their iOS and Swift skills.

Indie Developer
Adam creates apps for fun and profit. With 50+ apps on the App Store, he’s building a million-dollar app portfolio in public.

iOS Developer, onmyway133
Khoa is behind some of the most-starred iOS projects on GitHub, like awesome-ios-architecture, awesome-ios-animation, DeepDiff and the PushNotifications app. Lately he’s been building MCP servers in Swift, so AI assistants can work with your tools.

Creator of Deck-Man
Vidit has been making apps for Apple platforms for more than 15 years, from the award-winning LookUp: English Dictionary to, most recently, Deck-Man. His work explores creative uses of emerging technology.

iOS Engineer, Luma AI
Aryaman builds tools that make developers’ lives easier, like Universal Link Validator and Indie Watch, and writes about iOS, Swift and Xcode at Digital Bunker.

AI Engineer, Apple Developer Institute for AIML
Amelia turns everyday problems into practical apps, like Tensie, a published iOS app that uses on-device AI to read blood pressure monitors.
Don’t wait for the full lineup. Tickets are only S$60 and seats are limited.
AI can write the code. It can’t sit next to you, look at your app and tell you what it really thinks. These are the parts of iOS Conf SG you only get by being in the room.
All conference
Try the best new apps on iPhone Duo, bring your own, and ask the developers who’ve already shipped how they handled the bigger screen.
Thu 21 – Fri 22 Jan
Start something on Thursday, finish it by Friday afternoon and show it on stage. Indie developers who’ve shipped plenty of apps will be around to help when you get stuck.
Wednesday is our hands-on day, before the talks begin: real code, on your own Mac, with trainers who know these frameworks inside out. The workshop day is included in every pass with “Workshop” in its name, and in the Individual Sponsor Pass.
Half-day workshop
Bring Apple Intelligence into your own apps
Every team is being asked where AI fits in their app. The Foundation Models framework gives you direct access to the on-device model behind Apple Intelligence, straight from Swift. It runs on the device, so your users’ data stays private, it works offline, and there’s no server to run or per-request bill to pay. That makes features like summaries, smart suggestions, tagging and natural-language search practical to build into the apps you already ship.
A Mac with the latest macOS and Xcode, an iPhone on the latest iOS if you’d like to test on device, and an idea or two you want to try.
Daniel will confirm the final outline closer to the day.

Your trainer

We’ve been going to a lot of community meetups and conferences in our neighbouring countries. Almost everywhere we went, someone would come up to us and say they’d love to come to iOS Conf SG, but they couldn’t justify the ticket on top of travelling to Singapore.
We’ve been running this community since 2011, starting with the iOS Dev Scout meetups, and it has always been about bringing people together. Pricing people out never sat right with us.
So for 2027 we’ve brought the ticket down to S$60. Our sponsors and donors pay for the event, and your S$60 covers your food. For our previous 11 editions, tickets were S$200–300.
If cost is what kept you away before, this is us saying please come. We’d really love to meet you in Singapore.
We’ve already cut the price right down, so there are no early-bird or group discounts this year.
If the people you want to reach are iOS developers in Southeast Asia, iOS Conf SG is where you’ll find them.
Every year, hundreds of iOS and Swift developers join us in Singapore, from across the region and more than 30 countries. As a sponsor, you can:
