Answer 1

Easy way to do it:

1) Left-click project icon (blue icon, under "Run" button).

2) Next to the project icon (to the right of it), left-click on project name under "PROJECT" (White background).

3) Select tab "Build Settings" and look for submenu "Architectures" (First one). Left-click on "Standard (armv7) $(ARCH_STANDARD_32_BIT)" and select "Other..."

4) Click on the "-" icon to remove original value ("$(ARCH_STANDARD_32_BIT)"). Click the "+" icon and write "armv6" (without double-quotes). Click the "+" icon again and add "armv7" (also without double-quotes). Click "Done".

5) Make sure that "Build Active Architecture Only" is set to "No" (it should be)

6) Next to the project icon (to the right of it), left-click on project name under "TARGETS" and repeat steps 3, 4 and 5.

7) Press cmd + I on your keyboard (or Product -> Profile on Xcode menu) and check to see if everything is ok.
