iOS Question Does updating metadata on AppStore really require a new app version?

[Martin Larsen]

I was about to upload a better screenshot for the iPad version of my app. But it was not possible and most of editable fields were disabled.

Can somebody confirm that I actually have to create a whole new binary just for the purpose of uploading a screenshot???

That's correct. Your app will need to be reviewed again.

Thanks. I talked to another developer yesterday who also confirmed it. Even correcting a spelling mistake in the description requires a new app!
