How to configure iOS app to work on specific devices?

I am developing iOS app with ZBar SDK for QR-codes scan. Here ZBar SDK creators tell us that

Only the iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 are supported, as they have a camera with auto-focus. The ZBar library does not support the iPhone 3G and is unlikely to ever support it.

So I have added auto-focus-camera key to the Required Device Capabilities section of my plist. All is great, except one thing - iPad 2 & iPod Touch 4th Gen doesn't have auto focus camera, but still are able to use my ZBar SDK code to scan QR-codes. But my auto-focus-camera key doen't allow users with iPad 2 and iPod Touch 4th Gen to download my app from App Store.

In other words I need to find a way to make my app installable via App Store on these devices:

  1. iPhone 3GS.
  2. iPhone 4.
  3. iPhone 4S.
  4. iPad 2.
  5. The New iPad.
  6. iPod Touch 4th Gen.

And on these devices my app should not be available:

  1. iPhone 2G.
  2. iPhone 3G.
  3. iPad.
  4. iPod Touch 3d Gen and

My question is: how to make my app available in App Store for first list devices' user and not available for second list devices' users?

Any help will be appreciated!

PS: I have seen this question on SO, but it doesn't help me much.

PS2: This app has the desired set of available devices.

Requirements: Compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod touch (4th generation), iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G, iPad (3rd generation) and iPad Wi-Fi + 4G.

Does anyone know, how they did it?

PS3: At the same time adding both still-camera and auto-focus-camera gives us this:

Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch (4th generation), iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G, iPad (3rd generation) and iPad Wi-Fi + 4G.

And that is not a great way as long as we have all iPhones as suitable for our app, instead of 3GS, 4 and 4S.

PS4: My app is here and it has such requirements:

Requirements: Compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, and iPhone 4S.

How do I turn off app sharing between Apple devices?

Go to Settings > [your name] > Family Sharing. Tap Purchase Sharing, then turn off Share Purchases with Family. If the organizer wants to turn off purchase sharing entirely, they can tap Stop Purchase Sharing.
