Is armv7 an absolute requirement for submission to the app store currently?
The application is being built against the latest xcode, against the latest sdk (5.1) but with the minimum iOS version being 4.2. If we remove armv7 (due to a third party library, please dont ask) can we still submit to the app store with armv6 only?
Thanks
Short answer: Yes
I assume that if you are targeting iOS 4.2+ it includes 2nd gen devices (my iPod touch has 4.2.1 ) …and those only work with armv6.
In any case…apps that work on armv6 work on armv7.
Now…if you haven’t tested your app on 2nd gen device I suggest that you make minimum iOS required to be 4.3 (as in 3rd gen+)
