About this course: In the Build Your Own iOS App capstone you will expand your repertoire of additional features and more advanced functions that may be implemented within the iOS environment. You will refine your development skill set and will apply your accumulated skills over the entire specialization series in an applied application development capstone project. This particular course is project based and structured around you building a high quality app as a capstone to the specialization. Currently this course is taught using Swift 2. The team is aware of the release of Swift 3 and will be making edits to the course in time. Please be aware that at this time the instruction is entirely with Swift 2.

Very nice course. I learned alot! Thank you for your nice work!
What i would like to be changed though are the following:
Probably the course could be updated to the latest Swift language and tools and i would prefer to have more videos and guiding about the final capstone project.
