iPhone vs iPad: Does having multiple builds make sense/possible?

Hi all,

I am about to release a first game but am running across issues in the same build making everything look good on an iPhone and an iPad. Initially I wanted this to be an iPhone only game, and I will probably release it for iPhone only first while I figure out the iPad stuff but wanted your all opinion on a few things:

  1. Does it make sense to have a build for iPad and a separate build for iPhone?

  2. I know choosing one or the other in build settings or xcode will prevent the device I dont want access to it from finding it in the app store, but does Apple allow you to have 2 builds uploaded for each type of device?

  3. I’m sure one would have to be build x.1 and another x.2 or something like that?

  1. IMO, not really. As a user I don’t like that; I prefer to have universal apps, and the trend seems to be away from separate apps.
  2. Yes.
  3. No.

Fair enough. I spent almost the whole day today tweaking, and I got it looking great on 4:3 and 16:9. :slight_smile:
