iOS Question iPhone and iPad versions mandatory on market

[igodese]

In my previous post I described an issue with the App icon and received an answer with the advice to compile for both iPhone and iPad to avoid a sure rejection of the App, due to Apple's changes in the market rules, that means the Apple Store is no more splitted in iPhone Apps and iPad Apps, but is a single place for both the devices.

Does this market's change involve also old published Apps? If I have an old App initially compiled with #Target: iPhone only and I want to update it, must I recompile it using #Target: iPhone, iPad?

Thanks in advance...

I thought you'll ask if these tags (#Target: iPhone, iPad?) were deprecated ?

I haven't seen any official statement about it. You can just try. If they reject it then add support for iPad. It is really not complicated to add support for iPad.

And in the case you're UI is supporting only large screens ?

There is no problem with supporting iPads only.
