Hello,
I recently saw a couple of blog posts where it was mentioned that multiple windows support would be required for iPadOS apps sometime in 2020. None of them linked to sources. I've since searched the review guidelines, developer docs, some of the WWDC videos and could not find any official information regarding this. Can anyone confirm if it really will be required?
There is a WWDC video about this.

AFAIK, it's only supporting scene magament, so that your app can be used in a multi window environment, hence working with any "screen" size (its window).

Yes that's correct.
Essentially, you have to use scene management, which is pretty easy. It complements AppDelegate and replaces some of its API. Don't forget to set the info.plist correctly (this is done automatically when you create a new project in XCode after 11.2.
See this for doc and sample code:
Thanks. Just to clarify, is it going to be required to transition to using scenes or to also support multiple windows? Because for some types of apps it seems pointless, e.g. games.
