Thanks for the questions.

> Does the phone get hot at all?

It's pretty reasonable and similar to the heat you'll get when playing an intensive game. If you're sensible it's pretty usable.

> how long did it take you to build this

I first started in 2023 and managed to get an MVP out the same year. That was pretty basic and a lot of work has been done since. I don't have an accurate measure of how much time has been spent, but it's had a lot of my attention since I released the first MVP.

> how easy is it to test this in Xcode?

This is pretty nice actually. It runs absolutely fine in the simulator, which is where I do most of my testing. The only time I have to move to a physical device is for performance testing, which isn't a huge drain on productivity.
