Case Studies

Learn from Real Implementations

Each app is unique — and so is the best strategy.

The following case studies show how I’ve helped developers design, implement, and iterate on high-quality App Intents, Shortcuts, and Apple Intelligence experiences.

With these, you can see what it looks like when you fulfill the potential of what Apple offers.

What You'll See

  • The challenges facing each team
  • How we approached their App Intents design
  • Examples of intents, entities, App Shortcuts, and Custom Shortcuts
  • The results: feature adoption, faster development, happier users

Why It Matters

Apple’s frameworks are powerful but easy to get wrong – there are so many opportunities, but no clarity on what you specifically should do.

These stories show what’s possible when you have a clear strategy — and what happens when you bring in an expert who’s been working with this technology since the beginning.
