This course is not updated. While Xcode now is already version 9 in 2018, it is still using Xcode 7.While Swift is already 4 in 2018, it is still using Swift 2.It is very sad that in the course material it keeps saying "we are aware Xcode is already version 8, please stick with Xcode 7 for now. Xcode 8 will break our code".It is sadder to know the knowledge we learn in this course doesn't apply to modern technology.One more thing, the course forum is poorly maintained. Many people are asking questions while no one is really answering.

Course materials are outdated..

By Jeyanthinathan G on 28-Dec-18

Please update your modules to latest Xcode version. Also, it was a great pain to get peers for reviewing my project. Kindly check for alternatives. I would not recommend this course to any of my friends.
