Apple WWDC23: Asmi Jain, a 20-year-old girl from Indore, got a video call from Apple CEO Tim Cook where he praised Jain for her exemplary work and creativity. In the WWDC23 Swift Student Challenge, Asmi Jain created the EyeTrack app, which tracks a user’s eye movements as they attempt to follow a ball travelling around the screen and subsequently helps improve their eye muscles. She was hence chosen as one of the winners of the WWDC23 Swift Student Challenge.
Talking about coding, Jain noted that “coding lets me create things that help my friends and my community” when discussing the use of coding to solve problems. She further added, “It gives me a sense of independence that is very empowering.”
“I had an amazing time meeting so many people from India’s innovative iOS developer community earlier this year, and Jain’s incredible work exemplifies the creativity and ingenuity on display all across this country,” Cook was quoted saying in a report by the Mint.
He also added that Asmi is poised to make a profound impact on the world by helping people with their health, and we’re excited to see what she does next.
Each year, as part of its Worldwide Developers Conference, Apple issues a challenge to students throughout the globe: create a unique software playground using the Swift coding language.
