iOS App Development in Poland
Several companies in Poland were early pioneerss of mobile development. iOS developers form a large percentage of mobile development specialists. For a who’s who of the most important players in mobile development in Poland, one can find out more from the Mobile Trends Awards Gala. The event has taken place annually since 2011 with companies presented awards for different categories. Startups, travel, services, commerce, fintech, gaming, and other categories are available for companies to be rewarded for.
Going through the list of companies who have won awards at the Mobile Trends Awards Gala gives a good idea as to where the most talented iOS developer teams work in Poland today. InPost, mBank, Orlen, PKO PB, ING Bank, BNP Paribas, Alior Bank, Zabka, and 4F are just some of the companies whose projects are represented at the Gala.
One company which has been a stalwart of the mobile development industry is Future Mind, now part of Solita. Led by the charismatic Tomasz Wozniak, the company has delivered over 300 projects in over 15 years on the market. Many of them worthy of recognition.
According to Future Mind’s 2025 predictions, the company believes that there are three trends to note:
- AI will become an integral part of mobile apps in the form of agents and chatbots

- Voice interfaces will also gain popularity, since the maturity of the generative tools allow for smoother conversations.
iOS Developer Events in Poland
The Mobile Trends Awards Gala takes place in Krakow next week. Beyond this event, there are several others worth keeping on your radar.
FlutterCracow is an event that is available on Meetup. It has over 750 members and events take place regularly. Events are for mobile tech enthusiasts and the next one is in May. Rafal Plonka and Paul Kastel are the gentlemen behind the initiative which also involves companies like EPAM from the Krakow ecosystem.
In Warsaw the Mobile Warsaw community is very active on Meetup, the membership of the group is currently over 2,500.
Outside of Warsaw and Krakow there are less opportunities we could identify where iOS developers meet. It’s understandable that Warsaw, with companies like Future Mind, has a large community. However, the strength of the community in Krakow has other origins.
In Krakow, the growth of ITMAGINATION, now part of Virtusa, has also made an impact on the market. Not to mention companies like InPost or Synerise that have also brought more mobile developer capabilities to Poland’s second city, either by hiring them directly, or through their ecosystems.
The Future for iOS Developers in Poland
The amount of engagement from businesses supporting the growing mobile developer ecosystem shouldn’t go unnoticed. Companies like leading Fintech, Backbase, and others are becoming more visible. Not only that, but they are addressing far deeper subjects than just basic mobile development trends. SwiftUI is one of these technologies. SwiftUI helps you build great-looking apps across all Apple platforms with the power of Swift.
Swift is a general-purpose, functional, imperative, and block-structured language for iOS Development. It is not a competitor to Objective-C and is not expected to replace it. The two languages have different capabilities. Swift is used by LinkedIn, WhatsApp and others. It is growing in popularity. It’s a major topic in the mobile development community. Hence why we wanted to draw attention to how the team at Backbase in Krakow are helping the market by providing discussions on this language.
If you want to know more about being an iOS Developer, Krzysztof Zablocki has a following of 4,700 on GitHub where he shares much of his work. Krzysztof is a passionate and experienced Principal Swift Engineer who started his career in Poland and has since moved to the U.S. There are many others like Krzysztof who are available to follow on GitHub.
