IOS developer: app from detailed spec and existing Swift source

Skippers Online is a UK online sailing school. Our lessons app, "Skippers Lessons", is finished and working on Android and Windows. We now need an experienced iOS developer to bring the iPhone/iPad version to the App Store. The code is already written. The Swift source for the iOS app has been written with Claude (Anthropic's AI) from a detailed technical handover, but it has not yet been compiled or run, because it was written without a Mac. Your job is to turn it into a working, published app. What the app does: - Students sign in with their Skippers Online account (or continue as a guest) - They download narrated HTML5 lessons (roughly 100-200 MB each) and play them offline - Access to each course is controlled by the server; lessons can be deleted to free space - Password reset happens inside the app What you'll receive: - The Swift source files (WKWebView, background URLSession downloads, Keychain, ZIPFoundation), iOS 17+, universal iPhone and iPad - The shared lesson-list screen (one HTML page, used unchanged by all our apps) - A 25-page handover document covering the design, the server calls and a full test checklist - The working Android app and source code for reference - The server side is complete and live: you won't need to change it Your job: - Set up the Xcode project from the supplied code and get it building - Fix whatever doesn't compile or doesn't behave correctly on a real iPhone and iPad - Test against the checklist (sign-in, guests, downloads in the background, offline playback, audio with the silent switch on, and so on) - Set up TestFlight, then take the app through App Store review to release, under our own Apple Developer account (you'll be added as a team member) Requirements: - Proven apps in the App Store; please include links - Experience with WKWebView, background downloads and App Store submission - Willing to work with existing code rather than rewrite it - UK-based or able to work UK hours is a plus How we'll maintain it: we intend to keep maintaining the app with Claude after handover, including Apple's yearly rebuild. So please keep it simple to pick up: plain Swift with as few third-party libraries as possible, clear comments, a README covering setup, build and release, and a build that runs from the command line (xcodebuild) as well as in Xcode. You're welcome to use AI tools such as Claude Code yourself. At the end we must receive the full Xcode project and source code; we own all rights to the work. In your proposal, please give: 1. A fixed price for getting the supplied code working and released, with your estimated timescale 2. A price for the yearly update Apple requires (rebuilding with the current Xcode and resubmitting), as a fallback 3. Links to two or three apps you've built Shortlisted applicants will receive the code and the full handover pack.

Create a short two-character clay-style animated explainer video

### Description **Experience Level:** Intermediate I'm looking for an animator to create a short conversational film for a new software product. The film is built around two recurring characters having a conversation. I already have the complete script and visual references for both characters. **The visual style is important.** The characters have a simple, sculpted clay appearance. They are slightly abstract human figures with a tactile, moulded quality. Think simple clay character animation or stop-motion-inspired 3D rather than conventional flat cartoon characters. They do not need to match my reference images exactly, but I do want the finished characters to feel dimensional, tactile and recognisably part of the same visual world as the references. **I am not looking for a standard 2D explainer-video style, flat vector characters, paper/cut-out animation, whiteboard animation or stock/template cartoon characters.** The animation itself can be relatively simple. Most of the film is a conversation between the same two characters, so I am looking for someone who can make that interaction feel natural and engaging through: * consistent character design throughout * posture, gesture and simple facial or body expression * good dialogue timing so it is always clear who is speaking * natural reactions between the two characters * a small amount of supporting visual movement or scene changes where useful * a clean, polished overall finish The finished film will be approximately 2-3 minutes long. I am open to different production methods, including AI-assisted workflows, 3D, 2.5D or other efficient approaches. **What matters to me is the finished visual result rather than the technology used to create it.** If you use AI, the two characters still need to remain visually consistent throughout the film. I can provide: * the complete script * visual references for both characters * product visuals * voice tracks if useful for production **Before applying, please look carefully at the character reference images.** Please send me one or two examples of work you have personally created that is genuinely relevant to this style, ideally involving dimensional or clay-like characters and character dialogue. Please do not send a general animation showreel if it is mainly flat 2D explainer animation. I would rather see one relevant example. I am working within a modest budget, so please also explain briefly how you would approach producing this efficiently. ### Deliverable Finished 1080p video suitable for use on a website and social media, including one reasonable round of revisions.

Google Ads Specialist Needed for Ongoing Management

I am looking for an experienced Google Ads specialist to help me set up and manage Google Ads campaigns for my clients, initially focusing on plumbers and heating engineers in the UK. I am building a lead-generation agency and want to work with a reliable freelancer on an ongoing basis as I bring in new clients. I intend to offer different service tiers to my clients, with different levels of Google Ads management and support. I would like to discuss these tiers with the successful freelancer and agree on what each tier should include, along with the associated costs. What I need you to do: * Set up Google Search campaigns for local plumbing and heating businesses. * Conduct keyword research and identify high-intent search terms. * Write compelling Google Ads designed to generate phone calls and enquiry forms. * Set up location targeting, budgets, bidding strategies and negative keywords. * Set up conversion tracking for phone calls and website enquiry forms. * Optimise campaigns regularly to improve performance and reduce wasted ad spend. * Provide clear monthly reports showing clicks, leads and cost per lead. * Advise on campaign improvements where necessary. Some clients will have their own websites, while others may use landing pages I create using Lovable. Experience setting up conversion tracking on landing pages is therefore important. What I am looking for: * Proven experience managing Google Ads campaigns for local service businesses. * Ideally, experience working with plumbers, heating engineers or other trades. * Good understanding of lead generation and conversion tracking. * Someone who can manage campaigns independently and communicate clearly. * A freelancer interested in a long-term working relationship as my agency grows. Please include in your proposal: 1. Your experience with Google Ads, particularly for trades or local businesses. 2. Examples of campaigns you have managed and the results achieved, if available. 3. What is included in your monthly management service. 4. Your price for setting up and managing one client’s campaign. 5. Whether you can set up call and form conversion tracking. 6. How often you optimise campaigns and provide reports. 7. Whether you would be happy to discuss different service tiers and help me decide what should be included in each. Initially, I expect to start with a small number of clients, with the potential for regular ongoing work as the agency grows. I am looking for someone dependable who can deliver quality work and build a long-term relationship with me.
