About six months. I managed to actually get a new feature into that hot mess while fixing bugs that would take days to weeks to track and handling compatibility with a new iOS major version, but then I got an offer to work in the space industry and quickly left.

A while later I heard they threw everything away and started an in-house rewrite in Swift. Some people do seem to learn from their mistakes.

EDIT: clarification on the opening statement.
