Apple Human Interface Guidelines Skill

Design exceptional experiences for Apple platforms following official Apple HIG principles, patterns, and best practices.

Core Design Principles

Clarity

• Text must be legible at every size
• Icons should be precise and lucid
• Adornments are subtle and appropriate
• Functionality is obvious through focus on content

Deference

• Content fills the entire screen while UI stays out of the way
• Translucency and blurring hint at more content
• Minimal use of bezels, gradients, and shadows keeps interface light and airy
