🚨 iOS Developers — Important App Store Changes (April 2026)

Apple has rolled out a few important updates that could impact your upcoming releases:

🔹 New Minimum SDK Requirement
From April 28, 2026, all app submissions (including updates) must be built using iOS 26 / iPadOS 26 SDK or newer. Apps built on older SDKs won’t pass review.

🔹 What This Means for You
• Applies to both new apps and updates
• Existing apps already on the App Store will continue to work
• But any future update must comply with the new SDK requirement

🔹 Updated Age Rating Process
Make sure to complete the revised age rating questionnaire in App Store Connect. Skipping this step could delay your app approval.

💡 Takeaway:
If you’re planning a release or update soon, it’s time to upgrade your Xcode and SDK setup to stay compliant.
