>The mobile app wasn't complex (literally only does the things outlined above) and I've done enough mobile development and graphics/computer vision development before that the stack and concepts involved weren't completely unknown, just the specifics of the various iOS APIs and how to string them together - hence why I initially thought it would be a good use case for AI.

Ok. I have done similar, too. For example, when starting a new Django project, I will rather copy an old project as basis than create a new from scratch with LLM.
If there already exists full documentation or repo of exactly what you are trying to do and/or it is something you have already done many times, then LLM might not add too much value, and may even be a hindrance.
