After ios12 release, Will appstore stop accepting applications with 32bit architectures? just like they did for simulator architectures in ios11 release time.

We have received the below mail from apple.

Apple became the first company to integrate a 64-bit processor into a smartphone when it released the iPhone 5s in 2013, and it has been using them ever since. But over three years on, some iOS apps are yet to be updated.

As of February 2015, Apple required all developers to support 64-bit chips when submitting new iOS apps — and that policy was extended to cover updates to existing apps in June of the same year. But not every title in the App Store has been updated since then.

When the transition to 64-bit is complete, older iOS devices — including the iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, and the fourth-generation iPad — will no longer get app updates, and won’t be compatible with the newest iOS releases after June 2018.


Is that last means "After Junt2018, appstore will stop accepting applications with 32bit architectures? just like they did for simulator architectures in ios11 release time."
