Warning in uploading build on iTunes Store

Question

Missing recommended icon file - The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPhone / iPod Touch of exactly '120x120' pixels, in .png format.

I am using xcode 4.6.3 and I am creating app for iOS 4.3 and above, till iOS 6.1, as there is no option for iOS 7 in xcode 4.6.3. But it is condition for iOS 7 to have icon of pixel '120* 120', then why it is showing warning for my app.

I do not have icon of pixel 120*120 . Is there any way to skip from this error. Please tell me the solution or Is it compulsory to add icon?

Answer 1

Try to check Xcode version you are using, In Terminal run the following command

xcode-select -print-path

then try to check is this the Xcode 4.6.3 or below version if not change the path

sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

where Xcode.app is Xcode 4.6.3 or below version Path.

after switching the xcode version try uploading, this may fix your problem

if you have beta version of XCode 5 then it gives warning

Answer 2

No, there is not way to skip this warning. If you build with the iOS 6 SDK you can still add the need icon, just add the 120x120 icon to the CFBundleIconFiles array in your info.plist.

Answer 3

If you will remove this warning that will be in your own favor because from now onwards its era of iOS7. Your app will run on all devices . It is just a HD icon which will show on itunes. So Apple is suggesting you to make it happen by making little more effort. Resize your icon for retina in 120x120 from Here and add it in project.Update info.plist and then upload.
