It's not long now until IOS10 is released. Those developing with React-native will want to know if it's compatible or not! I'm wanting to upgrade my iPhone, but I'm worried if I do, I won't be able to test my React-native apps on it.
Will there be compatibility issues? Will the RN community try compensate for older IOS versions as well as IOS 10? Any information would be helpful!!
According to this ticket, iOS 10 support will be provided with RN 0.29
The commit purported to provide iOS 10 support is slated to be
released with version 0.29:

I'm trying to initiate the testflight for my iOS application, suddenly I'm started getting the below error
"SDK Version Issue. This app was built with the iOS 13.2 SDK. All iOS apps submitted to the App Store must be built with the iOS 14 SDK or later, included in Xcode 12 or later."
After googling a bit, I found that few people are facing the same and like other developers, I don't want to upgrade the xcode as many other applications are dependent on it and I am using xcode 11.0.1 and to upgrade the xcode to higher version, I need to upgrade my macOS as well, I am using mojave and I have to upgrade it to Bigsur.
As I'm a cross-platform developer, I have very little idea about these processes, so please help with a proper solution
The upgrade is compulsary and I have to go with it
basic question regarding xcode 4.2 and iOS SDK5
I have an older MAC and really can't use anything higher- if I made an app for this target, will it be rejected?
Does the newer SDK 7.0 have to be the target? will the app run on newer versions (like it would in Android)
I looked around but seem to find mixed answers- just seeing what my options are.
You have to use at least Xcode 5 to be able to distribute your apps to the App Store. In a few months, the minimum requirement will likely become Xcode 6.
Ill start developing for IOS but the hardware I got only suport up to 10.6.4
I know that Xcode 4.2 seems to work on Snowleopard...
but the last version requires 10.7.4, in there anyway to make the last version work on the 10.6? If not, if I just use the 4.2, can I still develop with no problems? what Im going to be missing out?
Thanks
Edit: Thanks guys, Ill be building myself a hackintosh...
Older versions of Xcode are still available:
If you can't install the latest version of Xcode on your MAC, you can get older versions at connect.apple.com.
Notes:
However, they won't come with the latest SDKs.
And you can't develop for the latest iOS devices with an old version
of Xcode.
In short, you will probably need to upgrade your hardware in order to develop using the laters version of Xcode.
Apple are very sneaky - they want to sell hardware - so by dropping support for various OS versions in Xcode and not supporting older hardware with newer OSes they are effectively forcing developers to buy the latest hardware to keep up to date with software development.
You can still develop older iOS apps (i.e. using older SDKs and targeting older iOS versions) using an older version of Xcode (Apple do at least make the older versions of Xcode available through the developer portal). However, you'll need to carefully figure out what iOS versions you can target because Apple are also increasing the minimum app specifications in order to submit new apps and updates to the App-Store. So soon enough it won't be possible to submit apps developed using Xcode 4.2 to the store and you will need to update the Apple hardware you develop on if you want to make apps that will be submitted to the store.
The most annoying thing about this is that you can't even use an older Apple computer as a build server. I have a Mac mini which is less than 5 years old and I can't use it for development any more - it would be perfect as a build server!
I've recently updated xCode to the newest version. (which includes iOS SDK 6.1) The problem is, that i want to make my apps available for all iOS versions, starting at version 5.0. Is this even possible?
Best regards
Go to Xcode->Preferences->Downloads->install Simulators to test all iOS versions.
For setting your application minimum iOS version, goto Targets->Summary->Deployment Target->Set to 5.0
Hope this helps you..
I've been waiting with installing the iOS 5.0 SDK, because I worry I might not be able to switch to the 4.3 SDK again. Can anyone tell me if it's possible / safe to upgrade to the 5.0 SDK beta and still be able to use the 4.3 SDK for development?
You can install 2 or more xcode versions on the same machine. I would suggest doing this so that you can still submit from a non-beta version to the app store if required.
I've done it lots of times without any problems.
