I wrote my latest (released) iOS app in obj-c.
While I see some of the benefits of swift, I find it unnecessarily unreadable. One might argue about this, but as a developer, I value how readable the code is (no matter the language).
Going over various projects written in swift on github, more than 50% don't even compile without serious refactoring.
OTOH, grab a project in obj-c, from 15+ years ago, compiles with minimal changes (or, most of the time, without any).
I'm a big fan of Chris Lattner and his work, but swift is not his most successful children. While I believe his intentions were good, the end result is a mess worse than brainfuck (the programming language).
YMMV
