Impact on IFS Customers
Apple have enforced a policy that all applications must be built using the iOS 13 SDK (Xcode11) by the 30th June 2020.
From this date, new submissions of new or existing apps that are not built on this version will not be accepted into the store. FSM 5.7 Update 10 and FSM 6 Update 5 both comply with this requirement.
Previous versions of FSM do not comply with this requirement.
Another part of our application is affected by these changes from Apple. Our photo redlining/editing tool is no longer supported and has been removed from FSM 5.7 Update 10 and FSM 6 Update 5. It is our intention to reintroduce this capability by embedding a different 3rd party controller in a future update of FSM 6 once an appropriate tool is selected.
Why does this matter?
If you have modified the FSM mobile application on iOS and have not had your app accepted by this date, any new submissions of that app will be refused. This change does not affect existing apps that are already submitted to and accepted in the store.
What do you need to do?
All customers must uplift to FSM 5.7 update 10 or FSM 6 update 5 as soon as possible to avoid this issue.
