I'm working for a consultancy company as a software engineer, iOS dev, only have 5 months of experience, getting paid monthly around $1k, which is low, but high for my country

Only client work I did was selling door to door for a few weeks

iOS devs are in demand.

I'm sure you will have no problem picking up work over on Upwork if you want to try and build your freelance portfolio too.

Good luck with it :)

I've looked into it, I think I still need more experience to actually do it, and I would still be limited by hours per day

I'm thinking about trying to build an app for myself and launch it on the iStore, this plan scales with users 🤷‍♂️
