Hello,
here is my build.yml and the version are the most recent.
But the delivery process says that I aim the app target of ios 11.0 but I don’t know where to change it. Can you tell me where to change it please? (previous version tell me the same message)
Thanks.
Hey Yvan!
In your build.settings file, you need to add MinimumOSVersion = “13.0”, to the iPhone section:
Now, you will get a warning that it needs to be set to 15.0 by April 2027. If this is your first app, I would set that to 15.0
My game is 15 years old and I’m trying to keep it running on as many old customer’s devices as possible. I will update mine in April…
Hope this helps!
Joe
You will also need this block of statements or there’s a good change Apple will fail your submission:
– Solar2D’s default iOS template always emits these regardless of usage,
– so they need to be overridden in order to pass Apple’s new automated scan.
– If your app actually does use any of these, set them properly. Don’t duplicate.

the indenting didn’t come over but hopefully you get the idea.
Hope this helps!
