Question

New apple rules concerning Screenresolution and UDID

1

This morning ! read an article that as of today apple changed it's policies voor putting apps in the apple appstore. This concerns: - mandatory support for Iphone 5 display (retina resolution) - use of UDID for user identification is no longer permitted Does the above have any consequences for Iphone mobile apps developed with Mendix?

We do not use the UDID in Mendix applications. If your app uses the UDID through the PhoneGap API you will have to update your app use alternatives.

The size of iPhone 5 screen is no problem for Mendix applications either because web applications scale nicely.

The images you use in your app might not be 'retina' but I do not think their policy requires you to have double resolution images everywhere. Text automatically gets rendered sharply.
