I have an existing iPhone app and an iPad app, now I have created a Universal app, and I want to know if there is any way to kind of "merge" the existing app Ids, so I can upload my new app as an update for the previous ones.

Thanks!

  • I'm not sure bundling app ID's will do what you want. Check out this thread re: bundle id's instead - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2575552/can-i-change-the-bundle-identifier-in-my-app-after-its-been-approved. – Perception Jun 24 '11 at 16:20
  • I'm fairly certain that you cannot merge the apps. You can upload the universal version as the new version for the iphone as well as for the ipad, but then you'll need to manage them both separately which is a pain. – PengOne Jun 24 '11 at 16:21

No. I asked this question while at WWDC, of several Apple employees in the developer support group, and the answer is "not at this time, please file a bug report if this is a feature you'd like to see".

  • Thanks, I thought that would be the case, just wanted to see if anyone knew otherwise. I think I'll file that bug report =) – Eduardo Urias Jun 24 '11 at 20:02
  • I confirmed with several Apple engineers that bug reports, _especially duplicates_ help drive features and engineering effort. – RyanR Jun 24 '11 at 20:14
