hi,

i think you need to talk with somes developpers are worked on implementation of IPFS see on that : [https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs#protocol-implementations](https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs#protocol-implementations) and create or found a implementation on cocoa or swift (maybe with swift you can use js implementation : [https://developer.apple.com/swift/](https://developer.apple.com/swift/)[https://medium.com/swift-programming/from-swift-to-javascript-and-back-fd1f6a7a9f46](https://medium.com/swift-programming/from-swift-to-javascript-and-back-fd1f6a7a9f46)).

Regards
