## What it is
A collection of sample iOS applications demonstrating how to use the AWS SDK for iOS with services like S3, IoT, Lex, and Polly. Each sample is provided in Swift and/or Objective-C and includes setup instructions.

## Use cases
- learn how to upload and download files to S3 from an iOS app
- example of pub/sub messaging with AWS IoT on iOS
- build a chatbot with Amazon Lex in a mobile app
- text-to-speech with Amazon Polly on iOS
- getting started with AWS SDK for iOS
- sample code for Cognito identity in Swift

## When to choose
- you are building an iOS app that integrates with AWS services and want working reference code
- you want to learn the AWS SDK for iOS through runnable examples

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready library rather than demo code
- you target Android or non-Apple platforms
- you use Amplify libraries rather than the raw AWS SDK for iOS
