why did you choose 13 as a minimum and not 12?

leetal commented 10 months ago

Good question! The answer is the simple fact that the only devices capable of running max iOS 12 is the iPhone 5s and iPhone 6. On the iPad side the mini 2/3 and 1st gen air. All of these devices accumulate a very small percentage (<1%, statscounter + the apple provided "6% other devices") of the total device usage worldwide. All devices capable of 13 could run up to at least iOS 15 which is much more recent. So the decision was solely based on worldwide usage :)

Xcode 15's min deployment target is 12, so I'd use that :)
