Is there a way that I can determine if an app has been update to 64 bit prior to purchase? Example: Rogue Knight: Infested Lands. I'd like to get it, but only if it is already updated to 64bit. How can I determine this?
As far as I know games that were released after february 2015 or received a patch after june 2015 are all 64-bit.
I posted a similar question several months back. Sadly I haven't found a satisfactory answer beyond anything that's been updated in the last several years should be ok. Apple is really dropping the ball here in my opinion. Which is a shame because I support the idea of moving to native 64-bit support.
Rogue Knight's last update was last week, so it is without a doubt 64-bit compatible. Other than checking dates against when it was mandatory to include 64-bit or asking someone who already owns it, I don't think there's any easy way to tell. Apple being Apple as usual I guess.
As far as I know, the only way to know for sure is to *cough* *cough* have the iOS 11 beta installed. The app store gives a warning from what I have seen. Not very useful as this info should be visible on all OSes. Asking around appears to be the best solution right now. It's not a very satisfactory way to go about.
Muddying the water even more are developers putting outdated apps on sale (*cough* Square Enix *cough*). Really crappy behavior. It makes it hard for the mobile environment to be taken seriously.
