App Submissions Must Be Built With Xcode 13 Starting April 25

Apple has announced that developers must use Xcode 13 to submit apps to the App Store starting April 25.

Starting April 25, 2022, iOS, iPadOS, and watchOS apps submitted to the App Store must be built with Xcode 13, which includes the SDKs for iOS 15, iPadOS 15, and watchOS 8.

Make the most of the exciting features in iOS 15, iPadOS 15, and watchOS 8 to offer even more intuitive and valuable user experiences. Improve your app’s performance by refactoring your code to take advantage of asynchronous functions in Swift. And with the latest updates to SwiftUI, you can enhance your apps with new features, such as improved list views, better search experiences, and support for control focus areas.


Apple just released Xcode 13.3 which brings SDKs for iOS 15.4, iPadOS 15.4, macOS Monterey 12.3, and more. Xcode 13 requires macOS Big Sur 11.3 or higher.
