Hello Flic iOS-Team,

i added Flic support (API 1.1.11) to my iOS app "Chillout Control". I released a new version a few days ago with compatibility starting at iOS 5.1.1 until iOS 10.2. Now your framework requires a minimum of iOS 8.0

Is it possible to include/link your framework (also with 5.1.1) and just invoke/use it on iOS >= 8.0?

Linker command failed: embedded dylibs/frameworks are only supported on iOS 8.0 and later (@rpath/fliclib.framework/fliclib) for architecture arm64

I hope it does not look the same with the Android Library

Regards, Thomas Kirschner

The Android library has a minimum SDK version of 19, as it requires the Flic Android app to be installed, which has the minimum SDK version 19.

The Flic iOS app also required iOS 8.1, so I think that will cause the main problem. You could change the framework to not embed the lib and instead link it manually, but you rather want to bump your minimum supported version. According to the AppStore statistics, 94 % of the devices nowadays running iOS 9 or later.

Thank you for the answer @hansemann 😉 Manual linking of the flic framework doesn't work. This causes the problem described in this issue. I think it would work linking a static library (compiled framework). But i will upgrade the project to iOS 8 (and my iPad1 will keep stuck in the old app version).
