Swift is Apple’s modern, open-source language recommended for almost all new iOS, macOS, and watchOS projects. It offers safer syntax, ongoing updates, faster development, and future-focused features. Objective-C is still supported, mainly for maintaining or migrating legacy apps. For new, secure, and feature-rich iOS apps, Swift is preferable; use Objective-C only if tied to old codebases.
