App Store Connect minimum SDK requirements update
Key Points
- Xcode 26 required for App Store Connect uploads starting April 28, 2026
- Expo SDK 54+ already compliant with default EAS Build configuration
- Upgrade to SDK 54 recommended for full compatibility
Summary
Starting April 28, 2026, all apps uploaded to App Store Connect must be built with Xcode 26 or later using SDKs for iOS 26, iPadOS 26, tvOS 26, visionOS 26, or watchOS 26.
Key Points
- Expo SDK 54 & 55: Already compliant—default EAS Build image uses Xcode 26, no action required
- Expo SDK 53 or lower: Opt-in to Xcode 26 by setting
"image": "latest"or"image": "macos-sequoia-15.6-xcode-26.2"in eas.json - Compatibility: Not all SDK versions are compatible with Xcode 26; compatibility depends on your app's dependencies
- Recommendation: Upgrade to at least SDK 54 to ensure compatibility
