Xcode 9.1 support

[panagiotis merakos]

Hi Ralph,

>>>>Will iPhone X users be able to see and install current LC apps from the
iStore?
Yes, I don't see a reason why not to.

>>>>If so what icon/screenshots will they see?
You mean in the AppStore? I guess the screenshots you would have submitted.

>>>>>Also when installed what icons/splash screen will the iPhone X use?
If you don't provide a splash screen for a newer screen size (in your LC
app), then the OS presumes that your app hasn't been updated to support
that screen resolution
and so runs it in a compatibility mode at the largest size you do have a
splash screen for. You can try it on the iPhone X simulator to see how your
app will look like.

Hope this helps,
Panos
