Its my understanding that the free version can only build for Windows and Android.

I have not found it written aynwhere so would just like confirmation.

I am asking as I wanted to develop for an old ipad (IOS 5.1.1) and worked my way through the tutorials and then checked the file build and found only Windows and Android.

I am a retired software developer with over 40 years experience and just keeping my hands in.

Hi @major.thorburn,

The free version of Corona (Corona SDK) lets you build cross-platform, but it depends on which OS you’re using. Development for iOS requires macOS by Apple’s system/rules, so if you’re using Corona on Windows, you’ll only be able to build Android or Windows desktop apps.

This page should clarify things for you:
