I would be happy to use a decent 3rd party client and let @k00b focus on bigger and better things. Although, I would like to see it on Android too :)
How about making a PWA and simply adjusting the the web app so it scales better on mobile? I think that way there's less hustle and no need to build an app for every platform :) Edit: also an issue with Swift is that it requires that the developer uses an Apple computer.

I like this idea as well. The only reason I want to build it natively in Swift is for my personal learning experience. However, there is no API as of right now so its not really feasible to build.
With that said, I am working on a personal project to build out a nice dashboard app. When/If an API becomes available, I will add it to the functionality of my app and will break it off if people want something stand alone.

I got you :) It's been like four years since I haven't touched Swift, but if you haven't already, be sure to check Alamofire for http networking :)

I agree, but I personally don't have the skill set to make that happen. Frankly, I am not sure that I have the chops to build it for iOS yet either, but want to leverage it as a learning opportunity. Learning is best done with a project you are passionate about, and this feels like a good focus.
