Hi How to

Does 6.6.5 provide support for all the new IOS 8 features, and also does
auto sizing for different screens? Shortly Apple will require 64 bit for
new app submissions. What is the status of this requirement for Feb 2015?
If it is not available, you will not be able to submit your app to Apple.
By the way I had to stop using 6.7 due to bugs that are not yet fixed.

Thank you

Vaughn Clement
