I loved working in XCode at the time, it just "felt" better, it made obj-c "feel" good even though it's a very old language; the navigation, the colour scheme (I think I used the midnight theme), using gestures to do a swipe history back, the integrated tools, side-by-side views, etc, nothing like it.

I tried it again last year or so though, trying out the newer tools like SwiftUI and its live preview, and didn't enjoy it; the stability and performance was just all over the place.
