Test it

Using "hig-foundations". Review an iOS profile screen that uses fixed text sizes, custom gray labels, and unlabeled icon buttons.

Expected outcome:

High priority: Replace fixed text sizes with Dynamic Type styles to prevent truncation.
Use semantic label and background colors so contrast adapts across light, dark, and increased contrast modes.
Add VoiceOver labels that describe each profile action and its result.

Using "hig-foundations". Recommend when a social app should request photo-library access for profile images.

Expected outcome:

Request photo access after the user selects Add Photo, not during launch.
Explain that access lets the user choose a profile image.
Offer the system limited-library option when available.

Using "hig-foundations". Compare layout priorities for a document browser on macOS and visionOS.

Expected outcome:

Keep the content hierarchy consistent, but use platform-specific navigation and window behavior.
On macOS, support keyboard navigation and resizable windows.
On visionOS, keep primary content within a comfortable field of view and avoid head-anchored elements.

What You Can Build

Review a Mobile Product Flow

Evaluate an iOS or iPadOS flow for hierarchy, adaptive layout, dark mode, motion, and accessible interaction.

Plan Native Interface Implementation

Translate design requirements into platform-aware guidance for semantic colors, text styles, symbols, and responsive structure.

Audit an Inclusive Design System

Check shared foundations for contrast, Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, localization, right-to-left behavior, and reduced motion.

Try These Prompts

Learn the Foundations

Explain the main Apple HIG foundations for a [platform] app. Focus on color, typography, layout, motion, privacy, and accessibility.

Review a Screen

Review this [screen or flow] for [platform]. Identify HIG issues, cite relevant foundations, and prioritize practical improvements: [description].

Plan an Implementation

Create an implementation plan for this [SwiftUI/UIKit/AppKit] interface: [details]. Include semantic colors, Dynamic Type, VoiceOver behavior, Reduce Motion, and adaptive layout.

Audit a Cross-Platform Experience

Audit this cross-platform Apple experience: [details]. Compare platform differences, accessibility risks, privacy prompts, localization, dark mode, and spatial behavior. Rank findings by impact.

Best Practices

Provide target platforms, interface goals, user needs, and technical framework before requesting a review.
Share relevant screens, flows, brand constraints, and current accessibility behavior.
Validate recommendations in light, dark, increased contrast, large text, reduced motion, and right-to-left configurations.

Avoid

Requesting a generic Apple-like redesign without identifying the target platform or user workflow.
Treating system colors as fixed values or relying on color alone to communicate meaning.
Applying identical navigation, layout, and motion behavior across every Apple platform.
