Do we need to re-publish existing BT apps for IOS 9?

Hi guys Like a lot of you, I have a couple of apps in the app store. I have not upgraded my iPhone to IOS 9, nor have I moved to xcode 7 and I am self-hosted. I thought I was happy, but I am reading a few IOS 9 related issues in the forums that are making me think. Can anyone give guidance on who needs to re-release their apps for IOS 9 and under what circumstances please? Thanks, Alan

not needed, just some new things if you upload a new app now.

While I agree with Leon, there are a few apps I need to update as well... That said, my phone has iOS9 on it, and so far (fingers crossed) so good with my existing apps. Cheers! -- Smug

Thanks guys. And btw @LeonG, you are entitled to your opinion, but don't be too quick to judge. I'd like to think my customers do get a good service. I lied about being happy. My mac refuses to upgrade xcode for reasons unknown and the iPhone 5 is out of memory and stuck on ios 8 until I delete 3 GB of unspecified space in use, so I am a bit stuck for the time being. Hey ho, it probably needs a complete overhaul. Rest assured, I will eventually move with the times. Thanks for confirming I'm OK for a little longer though. Cheers, Alan

So, if I understand correctly, I will hit this problem when I move to xcode 7 (fixable with plist mods), but I'm OK if I release an app using my current xcode 6.x setup.

I had a problem also with xcode7 installing, downloaded and just said waiting on the install, had to google it to get it working. Not sure if your having the same problem or not but seems lots are having install problems.

Did you upgrade to Yosemite 10.10.5? I first upgraded to that, and then installed the Xcode 7.0.1; everything has been working without any problems ever since.
