Universal app with Apple Watch.

Does anyone know if an ios extension requires the containing app to be set for a deployment of ios 8 or higher only, or can the containing app be set for a deployment of ios 6 while the extension and watch app be set for ios 8. i have a universal app that runs under ios 6 I want it to also contain my watch app but still run on ipads and iphones with ios less than ios 8.

You can add a WatchKit app to your existing app and continue to target iOS 6 and iPad.

I've done exactly that (except using iOS 7 rather than 6).

Same here, my WatchKit enabled app supports all the way back to 4.3. Of course there

is no Swift in the app nor the extension.
