I am trying out an application on pitch detection based on Demetri Miller Tutorial. But i am having issues when i try it with iPad. Is it because the microphone settings of iPhone and iPad are different.
The app works for iPhone and in simulator,but when it comes to ipad not always working.I have tested with 2-3 iPads and all are having this problem. So confirmed not problem with mic of iPad.Is there a way i can increase the microphone performance of iPad. Since the way mic is behaving in case of iPhone and iPad is different.
Is there any specific setting changes on ipad that needs to be done?

I'm working on an hibrid iOS app , and the xcode simulator doesn't have audio or video ( webcam ) so the only way to test it will be having a real device , I'm trying to figure out if and IPad Mini 4 could be enough and not different in the API calls ( webrtc) to enable the camera to stream , or should better buy an iPhone for testing , thinking on an ipad because I can use it for other things too
Also how you do if you want to test iOS 10 and iOS 11 in the same device a downgrade could be possible , or also the only way is having another device just testing a lower version of iOS
Thank you!
iPAD Mini 4 should enough for your need, and most of the API will capability all current iOS devices (64bit)
However, if you want future proof, kindly thing about the device that have ARKit (iPAD Pro)as the trend of the development.
It better with two separated device for iOS10 / iOS11 as Testing for Commerce software, as iOS device don't allow downgrade.

I uploaded my binary to the app store and in the project portion of the Xcode project it is set to "Devices iPhone". However in the app store it says:
Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
Why is my app available on iPad? I haven't designed this app for iPad and I don't want it to be available on iPad. What is the deal? How do I fix this?
It is not possible to tell Apple that an app is only for iPhone. All iPhone apps work on iPads.
What's more, if you make your app support iPad and iPhone specifically by changing the assets used based on the device, you can't tell which device it is being bought on.
For that information, you would have to make a seperate iPad-only app. But even then, people can buy the iPhone version for their iPad if they want.
Apps listed as only for iPhone run in a window which has the aspect ratio of an iPhone. The user can choose to run them at 2x magnification if they want it to take up more of the screen.
iPad runs nearly all applications, or apps, designed for iPhone and iPod touch available in the App Store. The App Store also features many applications designed specifically for iPad.
Here are some things to remember when using apps designed for iPhone and iPod touch on your iPad:
Apps may only work in portrait or landscape orientation. These apps will change orientation even with screen rotation lock on.
Apps can run in their original size or expand to fill the screen. Tap the 1x or 2x icon in the bottom right of the screen to switch between sizes.
Text and graphics may not appear as sharp when using 2x mode. If you prefer sharper text and graphics, use 1x instead.
Some features may not be available on iPad (for example, apps that let you make phone calls or use the iPhone camera to take pictures).

If I select normal iPhone simulator in Xcode 5 or Xcode 5.1.1, I am able view simulator same as an iPhone.
But, if I try the same thing with a 4-inch iPhone simulator, retina or non retina, (iOS 6.0, 7.0, 7.1), I'm not able to view simulator like iPhone. It's just showing only the screen, but not the skin or body?
I have tried to select iPhone 4-inch simulator and window scale 100% but it is just showing very big simulator.
If I do same thing for the normal iPhone simulator, it works fine and simulator shows like iPhone, but not for 4-inch simulator. How to get that?
I guess it would depend on your screen size, because I have the same "problem". However, it shouldn't be an issue.
If you need the home button functionality, you can just press Shift-Command-H
If you need to lock, it's just Command-L
That should be all you need in terms of what the skin can do...otherwise I don't really see the point in needing the skin.
The skin makes sense to have for making app preview videos. Now that we can add preview videos to the app store, we can't use the simulator to make a real looking phone simulation
While the iOS Simulator doesn't let you display the device skin/chrome, there are third-party tools that can. For example, I use an app called Reflector that basically makes your Mac look like an Apple TV on the network. You AirPlay the app as it runs on your device (not the simulator) to the Reflector app on your Mac. It, in turn, displays the screen and the skin/chrome around it.
(Looking for the URL, I just noticed that it now lets you display on Windows and allows you to "cast" Android apps as well.)
I don't want my iOS app to run on iPhone with 3.5 screens, is it possible to restrict my app only to 4 inch displays or larger?
Also, is it possible not allow the app to run on a certain device? I do not want my app to run on iPhone 4 and 4S.
Rather than selecting for a specific device you should focus on what capabilities you need.
For example Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy communications supported only in iPhone 4S+ devices . You can add the bluetooth-le key to your UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities to prevent installation on every device but the iPhone 4S+ devices.
I don't think this is a good idea. Apple wants you to develop for as many devices as possible, and if you decide not to support a certain device for no reason (e.g. "no M7 coprocessor" for all devices except the 5S), Apple will reject your app.
You cannot choose an app to only be released for 4" devices, and you have no influence on what display the iPad simulates when it runs an iPhone only app. What you want is simply impossible. This answer was found here: Limit app to running only on 4 inch devices IOS and answer credit goes to #Scott Berrevoets
NO.
You can't make an iPhone app restricted to a certain screen size. Not only is it not technically possible, it's against Apple's App Store Review Guidelines, in ways.
2.10: iPhone apps must run on iPad without modification, at iPhone resolution, and at 2X iPhone 3GS resolution
Although it's an old guideline mentioning the iPhone 3GS, the gist is the same even now: the app MUST be able to run on any screen size. There are even resizable iPhone and iPad Simulators within Xcode that you may use to take guesses on the next iPhone's screen size.
If they made guidelines so that apps can be used on the iPhone 3GS and the 4 and the 4s, said apps should also be able to run on newer phones and whatever's currently supported with the OS.
You said you noticed performance issues on older devices in a comment. This is where you need to work. How would you go about fixing said performance issues on older devices? Do what Apple did with iOS 7's release:
Reduce graphical effects and unnessicary processor-heavy effects on older devices.
If you look between devices, iPhone 4 has none of the translucency and background blurring that was advertised with iOS 7, namely with Control Center, Notification Center, Alerts, Keyboards, and Navigation Bars. This is how Apple tried to compensate with the lag of the iPhone 4 trying to run iOS 7. Same goes with the iPad 2. The iPod touch 4th generation didn't have enough RAM to run iOS 7, so it's stuck on iOS 6.1.5.
You need to do some work here too. If you have unnessicary graphical and processor-intense effects in your app that causes lag and performance issues, disable them on devices that can't run them at a smooth frame rate.
My game was rejected, because it crashes in iPad, but I don't want the game to support iPad. I did not even upload any screen-shoot to iTunes Connect. How can I do this?
You can't. All apps will be able to run on iPads, even those set to iPhone-only. They just won't use the full screen size / pixel density.
iPhone-only apps run in the 1x/2x compatibility modes on iPad where content is optionally scaled up.
You should try to confirm the crash on iPad simulator or (better) an actual iPad device.
