Swift app built with GitHub Copilot? Let’s review it.
Expert code review for Swift apps built with GitHub Copilot. We find GitHub Copilot-specific bugs, fix Swift security issues, and optimize performance. From $19.
GitHub Copilot issues we find in Swift projects
Problems specific to GitHub Copilot's code generation patterns when building Swift apps.
Insecure code patterns from training data
Copilot sometimes suggests patterns from its training data that are known to be insecure — like using eval(), innerHTML, or outdated crypto functions.
Hardcoded secrets in suggestions
Copilot occasionally suggests placeholder API keys or credentials that look real and get committed to version control.
Inconsistent code style across files
Different completions use different patterns — sometimes callbacks, sometimes async/await, sometimes .then(). The codebase becomes inconsistent over time.
Subtly incorrect logic
Copilot completions often look correct but contain off-by-one errors, wrong comparison operators, or missed edge cases that cause intermittent bugs.
Swift issues we check for
Common Swift problems that affect production readiness.
Force unwrapping optionals
Using ! to force-unwrap optionals instead of guard let or if let, causing runtime crashes when values are nil.
Storing secrets in UserDefaults
Saving API keys, tokens, and passwords in UserDefaults (plaintext plist) instead of Keychain, making them easily extractable from device backups.
Retain cycles from closures
Strong references to self inside closures and delegate patterns without [weak self] or [unowned self], causing memory leaks that grow over app lifetime.
Main thread blocking
Network requests, file I/O, and heavy computation performed on the main thread, freezing the UI and risking watchdog termination.
