Quarantine Tutors iOS App

I was tasked to make an app to facilitate student-tutor communications. This was a challenging app to make, as I didn't have much experience with backend. I decided to use Firebase for a login/backend/database, and while it was initially very hard to set up, it worked well! The most challenging aspect was integrating it with SwiftUI, as at the time Firebase's docs were exclusive to UIKit.

The hardest part was actually releasing the app to the App Store. It was rejected for containing the word "Quarantine," which apparently was not allowed to be used in an app during the pandemic. So, I had to remove all traces of the word and call it "QTutors."

My girlfriend at the time and I had a lot of fun adding tutor data into the app and testing it with each other. We also hid a small Easter Egg in the app. If you can find it, send me an email!

Overall, it was a successful app. While it didn't receive as much traffic as I would have liked, it was a great learning experience for me, and is still an app I revisit on my home screen time to time!
