I dowloaded Xcode 7 and I'm wondering if we can submit iOS 8 apps built with Xcode 7 to the App Store ? Or must we use Xcode 6 ?
Thank you.
Can you submit to the App Store an app built with Xcode 7 as long as you are not targeting iOS 9?
App needs to be compiled with release version of Xcode.
I was already using Xcode 6.4 Beta, and it doesn't let me submit to the Appstore.
I would not recommend using the beta version of Xcode if you plan to release your app soon.
It has NEVER been possible to submit apps to the store with pre release/beta tools.
While I have the same take on this as the other two posters Apple explicitly statet the fact in the past.
This time - if you look into the XCode 7 release notes - there's this section:
Submitting an archive built with BITCODE_ENABLED=NO will fail during upload. (21247555)
Workaround: Build the archive with BITCODE_ENABLED=YES and then uncheck the “Include bitcode”
option when distributing the archive (functionally equivalent).
Not sure about the reasoning behind that, but why mention that you have to take
certain extra steps when submitting with the beta if it is - as always in the past - not allowed?
That documentation will apply once Xcode 7 has been publicly released. It's not implying that you can release with the beta.
