App updates submitted from June 2015 on must offer 64-bit support, be built with the iOS 8 SDK -- AppAdvice
Wondering how the developer community around here feels about this. Will this be a challenging shift? I'm just curious what others' takes are as well as the implications for existing apps, iOS 7, ongoing development by our favorite devs, etc.

By then, iOS 9 will be mere weeks away, and 7 users could be as rare as 6ers are now(?)
It also means we may all be forced to upgrade our hardware....Apple style.....
At this point developers will be able to support both 64k and 32k code but must include 64 bit code for the February new app deadline and 64 bit code for app updates. It means there won't be any iOS 7 only updates or new apps in the future.
From a practical stand point, it can be significantly more difficult to develop and update apps for multiple versions of iOS. Nevertheless there's nothing in these App Store requirements that will preclude developers from supporting previous versions of iOS as they do now.
There are some apps on my iPad 1 that I can't find in the App Store anymore, so if there's an app you really like that's not being updated, you need to keep your own backups.
The rapid evolution of mobile devices and iOS in particular does mean there's also a more rapid decline in the supported life of apps that don't continue to be updated. At least at this point there are several developers who have established track records of putting out quality apps and supporting them. Hopefully the development of iOS will unfold in a way that allows them to continue to do so.
I think the more significant issue for iOS musicians and developers is that it's a niche market and yet at this point the pricing is still in line with other apps that have a wider market base. Look at the game app market for a contrast.
As the mobile devices develop more processing power, they'll start to merge/compete become alternatives/complements to desktop, laptop, and more traditional musical instruments. Along with this will come more diversity in the market in terms of the quality, functionality, and cost of apps versus some apps which will be as most of them are now.
Korg seems to be the first major music company to really go down this road and focus on iOS as part of their overall market and not just as an after thought.
