Hello,
I built and submitted an update to my iPad-only app with official Xcode 14 (14A309) and got rejected as in the message below.
I don't mention anywhere in my app information about iPadOS 16. Does this mean to provide an app update for ipad now i must use Xcode 13?
Thanks, Nam

Program License Agreement 2.3 - Confidential Nature of Pre-Release Apple Software and Services
Your app or its metadata still contains references to a pre-release version of Apple software, products, or hardware. Apps with compatibility references to a pre-release candidate version of an Apple operating system or pre-released Apple products or hardware are not in compliance with the Apple Developer Program License Agreement.
Next Steps
Please remove all references to pre-release versions of Apple software, products, and hardware from your app and its metadata.
Apps built for iPadOS 16 only will be eligible to be submitted to the App Store as Release Candidates at a later date. These apps can continue to be tested with TestFlight using Xcode 14 beta 6. See the announcement on Apple Developer for more information.
