I don't have much experience in writing iOs apps, but the impression I always had is that the language is not nearly as important as it seems, to that end. Regardless of the language, the important (and most difficult) part is getting used to iOS framework, the patterns and models it uses, not to mention all the UI widgets and how they interact with each other. I don't think Swift will make it easier to deal with all that, regardless of how well has been thought out.
