Tim Cook: The CEO of Apple, commended a young Indian woman living in Dubai for developing the iOS mobile operating system.
Hana Muhammad Rafeeq, who is nine years old, describes herself as “the youngest Apple iOS developer.” Hana has cited online articles that seem to support her account, but Gulf News was unable to independently confirm them.
She explained her software and other successes in an email to the CEO of Apple, who personally replied with a sincere congrats.
Hana claimed to have created and released an Apple mobile application at the age of eight in an email to Cook.

“I was first exposed to coding when I was five years old, and it appears that I am the youngest person to ever accomplish this. Additionally, I nearly entirely refrained from using any pre-made third-party programmes, libraries, or classes in my app. For this programme, I manually developed almost 10,000 lines of code. Please check out a brief excerpt,” she replied, providing YouTube links to her works.
Hana said in her profile that she is an Indian girl who was born and raised in the UAE.
“The reason I’m writing this is so that my parents may tell the Apple leader how amazing I achieved something and how passionate I am about technology in general and Apple in particular. Just to let everyone know that coding isn’t really that difficult, and that it should be prioritised on par with human communication language in early childhood education.
