There were iPhones with Japan-specific hardware for transit cards in the past but as of a couple years ago, all iPhones have been compatible.

Seems like there’s a high probability the author just drives everywhere at home.

Some parts of countries have different travel restrictions than others, for example, Greenland is not part of Schengen.

I'm writing a component library[1] on top of SwiftUI and while there are ton of unsolved problems in SwiftUI, the separation of concern allows for much more productive workflows than were ever commonplace in UIKit.
We're dropping into UIKit land quite frequently but for the user of the API, that remains implementation detail and while likely change as SwiftUI advances.
Ironically, a "Stock iOS" style app like Mail or Contacts is much harder to pull off with SwiftUI than an app like AirBnB that brings has its own design aesthetic and establishes its own conventions – cooperating closely with your designers and keeping them aware of what's easy/hard is a much better use of your time than trying to rewrite a pixel perfect `UISearchController` clone.
That said, navigation remains a complete mess and I hope that's a top priority for iOS 16.

Without Taylor Swift (or any other big name major label artist), Spotify might not be a viable business though.
Taylor Swift may argue that she's entitled to a better deal since she drives traffic, similar to how Apple Stores can negotiate better rents in shopping malls.
