Well a good reason would be the time spent downloading the app, waiting 5 minutes for it to bounce, letting the updates download, getting in to the app, etc. We can spend a whole lot of time downloading a prerelease copy or we can read clear documentation that should tell us how it should go. I'd rather not waste 1/2 an hour of my employer's time if at all possible. Just my 2 cents. It's not like we're downloading another copy of TextEdit, even for those of us with fast corporate connections. > >> What I wonder is whether setting the ENABLE_BITCODE build setting to NO will >> work for applications as well as frameworks. > > I assume that bitcode is _only_ included in an app when it’s being built for > submission to the App Store.
