Can I update my iphone application for iOS7 only?

Question

I have developed application for iphone4/5 with iOS 7 support. Recently I found issue in that and wanted to update application only for iOS7.

Does Apple allow me to update application for iOS 7 only? Do i have to give support for iOS 8 right now?

Answer 1

If you submit with Xcode 5.1.1, you'll compile with iOS 7's SDK (and your app will behave as it behaves currently).

If you submit with Xcode 6.0, you'll compile with iOS 8's SDK (and you'll have to update your app due to new API and possible bugs).

Answer 2

使用Xcode 5.1.1如果你想在一段时间内只为iOS7修复问题并提交应用程序..但如果用户在他们的设备上使用iOS8，则可能会遇到问题。

Answer 3

if I understood you correctly, I believe you should check in code for the user's iOS version and then update based on that. See How to check iOS version? how to do that.
