I made an app with Swift (my only iOS app). I like it. I like clean, easy-to-read languages where I can get stuff done quickly and reading code isn't a huge pain and using a new library isn't a huge pain. Swift seems to fit those preferences so far.

The debug messages were confusing. I never used Obj-C so I'm not sure if that's iOS or Swift that causes confusing error messages.

While it has gotten a little better, it is Swift.

(EDIT:) But I've been loving Swift so far! I've found that there is some consistency to the weird errors, so eventually you can start to map them to past experiences.
