Apple on Monday infomed developers that as of July, all app updates submitted to the iOS App Store must be built with the iOS 11 SDK and must support the Super Retina display on the iPhone X, if not, they will be rejected!

iOS 11 delivers innovative features and the redesigned App Store to hundreds of millions of customers around the world. Your apps can deliver more intelligent, unified and immersive experiences with Core ML, ARKit, new camera APIs, new SiriKit domains, Apple Music integration, drag and drop for iPad and more.

Starting July 2018, all iOS app updates submitted to App Store must be built with the iOS 11 SDK and must support the Super Retina display of iPhone X.

Ironically, Apple itself hasn't updated its own apps like iTunes Connect, iTunes Remote, Beats Pill+, etc, so it's expected that they will update these apps rather sooner than later. Many apps that have not been updated will be continued to have ugly black bars when used on the iPhone X and later devices.

The new guidelines clearly tell us that Super Retina support is likely to become more and more important, as rumors suggested there are two iPhone that will be equipped with OLED screen, which includes the second-generation of iPhone X and 6.5-inch iPhone X Plus.
