Restricting to iOS devices with A8… | Apple Developer Forums

I need to restrict my app to only support devices with A8 or newer GPUs.

In my

info.plist

I have the key

UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities

set to

opengles-3.

But this means that it supports A7 GPUs or newer. I have looked at all the keys and I don't see anyway to restrict A7 devices, but it seems like there most be a way since A8 GPUs are considerably more capable than the A7s. The require

metal

key supports the same devices that are OpenGL ES 3 capable. Requiring

arm64

will not work either since the iPhone 5s has an A7 GPU.

I find it hard to beleive that I am forced to support A7 GPUs when the A10 is over 400% more capable. I just can't provide a consistent user experience and results on the A7, and I don't want to have customers disappointed on older devices.

Can anyone recommend a way to support only A8 or better?
