Info.plist settings for iPad app only

Question

I want to send iPad only through iTunes. I have already made the following configuration changes.

• In the Summary section, I installed Active Target Device : iPad
• In the "Build Settings" section for "Virtual architectures" set to armv7

Although this ensures that the build will not work on devices other than the iPad, I also want to make sure that users do not see this application in the list of iPhone applications in the App Store results.

When reading the documentation for the iOS developer portal, Apple mentions that you must specify the UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key to indicate which devices are allowed to run this application.

• Is UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities the right approach to make sure my app only appears in iPad results?
• Why do I need to set a value? ARMv7?

Answer 1

If you found that the user Active Target Device : iPad iPhone does not see the application in the App Store on the device.

Since the iPhone / iPod Touch cannot launch the iPad application, where the iPad can run iPhone applications, your application will not be displayed in the App Store on the device.
