Description

When publishing to Apple, I encountered a number of problems that were not described in the official defold documentation. (https://defold.com/manuals/ios/)
I use:
Defold - 1.6.2
Xcode - 15
MacOS - Catalina.
According to the instructions on the official page, to create icons there is a checkbox for IPhone + iPad, and in the new version of XCode there is an option for iOS only without separation.
In the Xcode project, an IPhone has been added to Supported Destinations, and during assembly, if you assemble it in Single Size mode, Apple will generate errors even at the stage of sending the application via Transporter about missing images (120px and 152px), but if you fill in everything in All Sizes mode, it will be sent successfully, but at the stage of sending for moderation it will report an error of missing 1024px icon.
After analysis, the decision turned out that in Assets.car, in the correct case, there should be 2 icons of 1024px size (for iPhone and iPad)
And therefore, you need to add IPhone + IPad to Supported Destinations (even if the application is not intended for it), then the problem is solved.
