Description

You asked me on https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium_mobile/commit/61fbf1550144115ed21cdaf69c37d24d85d1afbb#comments"> https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium_mobile/commit/61fbf1550144... to make a bug report about this.

Apologies if I'm misunderstanding something. Using the current build hack, I am able to distribute one app that works on all devices, including iPads and older devices that can't upgrade past 3.1.x. I have quite a few users who are still on 3.1.x, as my app targets the education sector and there are quite a few students using it who've picked up devices second hand, or can't afford to upgrade. The change above looks like it would be cutting off support for 3.1.x users. Is there a reason for this? My app runs fine at the moment, and multiple updates have been accepted by Apple already.

It is actually possible to target 3.1.x with universal apps, but there need to be changes made in order to do so. This feature will hopefully be included in the 1.6.0 rollout but will have to be discussed internally first.

Steps to take:

   1. Open Titanium Developer V. 1.3 (still in beta as of 01/26/2010)
   2. Create new project and select "Universal iOS"
   3. On "Test and Package" select iPhone and click "Launch"
   4. App launches in iPhone Simulator as an iPhone app.
   5. Click Stop
   6. Select iPad and click Launch
   7. App launches as in iPad Simulator as an iPad app.

Working as expected.
