What are your favorite well-made iOS apps?

Question

I've used a few apps recently that really stood out as being designed and built with passion and attention to detail, and for me have set the bar for apps in their category.I'd love to hear from others if you have any examples of this, because with a good app it's just satisfying to use.The most recent thread I could find on this for reference (2016): Ask HN: What are the most well-made iOS apps? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12688975

I'll start with two recent standouts:Flighty: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/flighty-live-flight-tracker/id...As someone who travels every couple of months for work, this app has quickly jumped to the top of my list when I'm thinking of apps that solve a problem without compromise. Great UX, timely and truly helpful notification content, and a satisfying design that takes advantage of all the cool features iOS has to offer.Artifact: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/artifact-intelligent-news/id15...Google News has a good recommendation algorithm, but an uninspired design and very limited feature set. Apple News has a great design, but finding interesting content is a challenge even after months of trying to actively curate its algorithm. Artifact doesn't have the best recommendation engine, but it's pretty good and much more transparent/configurable than its competition, and its clever usage of GPT to dynamically combat clickbait headlines and summarize articles works surprisingly well.
