iOS App store New Requirements (by 06/20)

Questions & Answers
1

So I got an email detailing various new requirements (by 06/20) for all submissions to the Apple App store. The only one that I believe may need action on my part is :-

Apps for iPhone or iPad must be built with the iOS 13 SDK or later and use an Xcode storyboard to provide the app’s launch screen.

So my questions are as follows :

  • Are Apple going to remove apps that are not compliant after June? (found mixed info. about this)
  • Is there any general guidance for Unity developers regarding the new requirements?
  • How can I find which iOS SDK my current/previous iOS apps use?
  • Is Unity automatically compliant with the Xcode storyboard?

Thanks.

The option to use the native storyboard launch screen is already built in and is explained here:

No, your existing apps remain in the store. You must meet the requirements when you add a new app or update an existing one.
