3@trojanfoe I believe the question is about the language(s) used to write iOS/iPadOS itself, not for developing for those OSes. – rmaddy Sep 20 '19 at 06:14

iOS/ iPadOS/ Any Apple OS actually been developed based on Unix-Like/ Darwin based ecosystem. So, generally the core modules are mostly in C, C++ but apple used Objective-C as well (since it is their primary in-house language) and gradually using Swift this days I believe. – onCompletion Sep 20 '19 at 06:23

@rmaddy I believe I am still right. The core BSD/Mach O/S would have been developed in C and C++ and the frameworks in Objective-C and Swift. – trojanfoe Sep 20 '19 at 06:28

1Yes @rmaddy, you are right. The question is about the languages used to develop the Xcode, iOS SDK, etc... – Ramesh Annadurai Oct 09 '19 at 11:11

Apple usually programs its apps in Objective C. Android apps are programmed in Java.
