Is it possible to change the universal app to iphone only once it is uploaded to app store?

Question

I am trying to upload new version of my app which is only compatible for iphone. Earlier it was uploaded as universal app. Is it Possible to disable the IPAD compatibility during the next upload to the App store?

Anyone have idea about this ?

Answer 1

Hopefully this will help.

iOS App change universal to iPhone only

Developers who wish to issue updates, but remove device support, have three choices:

Fix their app so that it can work on the devices they originally set out to support. Target a newer version of iOS that requires a newer device. Remove their app from the store, and upload the new app with a different bundle ID.

Switch universal app to iPhone only app

1. Remove this App from app store
2. Create new bundle & use it to your new app version
3. Deploy App to the store

Answer 2

UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities would help you.

Put telephony value like this in info.plist (IPhone specific...)

Of course you need submit your app again.

UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities

UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities

UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities (Array or Dictionary - iOS) lets iTunes and the App Store know which device-related features an app requires in order to run. iTunes and the mobile App Store use this list to prevent customers from installing apps on a device that does not support the listed capabilities.
