Every subscriber gets immediate access to the full range amazing tutorials written for Hacking with Swift+ subscribers, plus the ad-free browsing experience, downloadable projects, monthly live streams, private forum access, and more.

But above and beyond all that you'll also receive exclusive subscriber-only thank you gifts every year – it's the least I can do to show how grateful I am that you're supporting my work.

This has some important terms and conditions, so please read the following carefully!

• Hacking with Swift+ subscriber gifts are available for everyone; we'll cover the postage worldwide.
• The gifts are free bonuses; you don't need to pay anything extra to receive them.
• There are multiple gifts based on how many years you have subscribed. After your first year you'll receive a "One Year" metal pin badge, a sticker, a fridge magnet, and a coaster. Second and subsequent years will contain different gifts.
• If you subscribe yearly, you'll be sent your gifts immediately.
• If you subscribe monthly, you'll be sent your gifts after you have been a subscriber for 12 months. These months do not need to be contiguous – you could subscribe for six months, take a six month break, then subscribe for another six months.
• To claim your free gifts, edit your Hacking with Swift account to include your mailing address.
• If you don't want to share your address with me, or if you'd rather avoid the environmental impact of sending packages around the world, you can opt out of receiving gifts.
• If your country levies import duty or other taxes on gifts you will be liable to pay them directly to your government.

Does this subscription give me all your books?

The articles produced for Hacking with Swift+ are all new and exclusive to subscribers, but after subscribing for 18 months you'll also gain free online access to over a dozen of my books. This means your subscription grows as you do, making Hacking with Swift+ the largest and most comprehensive subscription around.

What are the free gifts?

Each year of your subscription we'll mail out free gifts, as a thank you for supporting the site. These include pin metal badges, magnets, stickers, coasters, and more – we think you'll love them! If you take out an annual subscription, we send out your first year's gifts immediately.

What happens in the monthly live streams?

Every Hacking with Swift+ subscriber is invited to join my private monthly live streams on YouTube, where I build a complete app from scratch while answering questions along the way. This is your chance to get involved and explore projects being written live, and these streams are always hugely popular.

What happens if I miss a live stream?

All live streams are recorded, and posted onto the main Hacking with Swift+ site afterwards. Even better, they include a full transcript alongside, so if you prefer text tutorials to video tutorials you have that option.

How do I remove adverts from the site?

Every subscriber can enjoy an ad-free experience on Hacking with Swift – all you need to do is log in, and the site will automatically remove the adverts. To give you the fastest reading experience, we also remove the gray bar under the menu, plus the right-hand bar that sits next to every article.

Is Hacking with Swift+ suitable for absolute beginners?

If you're an absolute beginner you should start with my free 100 Days of SwiftUI course, which teaches you the fundamentals of Swift and SwiftUI. However, Hacking with Swift+ includes complete solutions to all the checkpoints and milestones in the 100 Days of SwiftUI series, making it the perfect companion as you're learning.

What's more, Hacking with Swift+ will grow with you once you've finished learning – it has a wide range of intermediate to advanced Swift techniques and tutorials that will keep pushing your skills further, no matter what your goal.

Some sites claim to have thousands of videos – why is HWS+ better?

Hacking with Swift+ focuses firmly on two things:

1. Giving you the depth you need to get a strong grasp of each topic. Where other sites make hundreds of three or four minute videos that touch lightly on each subject, we prefer to go into much more detail – 20 or 30 minutes, and often longer – so you get to understand why things work as well as how.
2. We teach Swift, Swift, and more Swift. We don't do Kotlin, we aren't interested in Dart, we won't try to squeeze in Flutter, and you won't find any React Native. That's not to say those other technologies aren't interesting, only that you're here to take your Swift skills further and that's exactly what we care about most.

How much does it cost?

Hacking with Swift+ costs $20 a month or $200 a year. Your membership includes all subscriber-only videos and articles available now and published in the future, for as long as your membership remains active. You can cancel your membership at any time, and your access will continue until your term ends.

What's the difference between Monthly and Yearly subscriptions?

Hacking with Swift+ is $20 per month, and you can cancel whenever you want. If you intend to work through many articles and really push your learning forward, you should consider the yearly subscription option, which is $200 for 12 months – a saving of $40.

Both tiers get access to exactly the same high-quality videos, articles, and source code. The only difference is that with the Yearly tier you save $40 every year, making it better value for money.

Are there exercises?

Yes! Many Hacking with Swift+ articles end with challenges to help you take your learning further – code to try, problems to solve, questions to consider, and more.

Why do I need a Hacking with Swift account?

Your Hacking with Swift account links your Gumroad purchase to this site, so we can unlock your subscription. This account also allows you to post to the forums if you want to.

Can I switch from a Monthly to Yearly subscription?

Yes, you can upgrade at any time, and we'll discount the annual subscription based on how much of your monthly subscription remains.

How can I cancel my subscription?

If at any point you want to cancel your Hacking with Swift+ subscription, you can do so directly through your Gumroad account. Your access to the subscriber-only content will remain active until your subscription term ends, at which point it will cease.

Will there be sales tax or VAT added to the price?

If you live in a country or state where tax is applied to digital purchases, that will be added to your subscription price. As you might imagine there isn't a lot I can do about that.

Will you still make free tutorials?

Yes, absolutely! I believe it's important to help everyone learn, so I will still be publishing as many free tutorials as I can. This won't be affected by Hacking with Swift+.
