Thanks for the tag @Jeremie Gluckman.

I have very limited experience with mobile SDKs in general, so won’t be able to help much on this topic.

Hi ! 

Unfortunately, I don’t have an experience with mobile SDKs yet and won’t be able to help. ☹️

Best of luck !

Afraid not @Jeremie Gluckman , it’s the Flutter SDK for us!

Hi there!

The new Analytics SDK for iOS is written in Swift and has cleaner API interfaces than the legacy one. It also has advanced features that are aligned with our other next-generation SDKs such as custom plugin support. Lastly, the new one uses file store instead of sqlite for storing unsent events underneath.

Please note that currently the new iOS SDK doesn’t support the Ampli wrapper and integration with the Amplitude Experiment SDK but our team is working on adding these in the future. Also it doesn’t currently support Objective-C (will be in the future) but if you’re using Swift, it’s not an issue.

Hope this helps!

@alex.ho 
Is there any expected timeline when the iOS Swift SDK (beta) is going to support the wrapper?
Thanks!
