I used Obj-C professionally for about 2 years and Swift professionally for about 2 years. I have a slight preference for Swift. I've been doing mobile dev on iOS and Android since 2012 and there have been a lot of language changes and programming paradigm shifts. I think it's become more accessible for new devs. For me, I don't think the time and headache to learn the new ways really had a lot of benefit on the end product. Maybe in larger software shops it did.
