I have released a German app for iPhone (swift 2 ios 9). Now I would like to add the English language. The problem is, that my app icon will not be understood in countries with English language. It should still be the same app, but use another icon for the app in English speaking countries.
Is this possible to set 2 different app icons für different localizations?

I have a game made in sprite kit, xcode 5 flappy bird type game. But it is only for iphone. I want to make it for iPad to but dont know how to I made images for all Ipads and iphone and now I need to make separate app for iPad. Can I create new app with the same name but make it for iPad only and distribute it to App Store? Please help!
Yes you can. Go into your project, in the menu up top select file/new target to make an iPad app in the same project and easily include many / most of the same classes. You can have the same display name (but different bundle ID) but most developers would probably append the name with ~pro or ~HD or something like that in order that differentiate the two products. They would probably also shift the colour scheme on the icon a little. Remember its possible that iPad users may have your original iPhone app on their iPad despite thats its an iPhone app, so they might end up with the same icon and bundle display name twice on their iPad springboard, which Im sure you'll agree would be undesirable.
You can also make your existing app into a 'universal' app with an update, so it runs natively on iPad rather than scaling up, this is what I would probably do but each to their own, there are many business models. I personally think with all different sized phone models we have to support these days ( 4! ) adding the iPad (which despite different form factors is still only one real 'size' ) is pretty trivial.
I am developing an iOS app in iOS 7 that requires me to display a particular time.
Though this is not a programming question exactly, can anyone suggest me the component that allows me to display the time in a nice analog clock?
Did you search Cocoa Controls for example? This is the pleace where you can find lots of cocoa visual components like clocks.
I'm a little bit confused about the App Icon for the App Store which is supposed to be required (link).
What is the naming convention for the new App Icon for the App Store? I can't find any information about that.
Before iOS7 there was an non-required image with the same size with the naming convention iTunesArtwork#2x. Is it the same?
We can place iOS specific app icon and launch image in Asset Catalog. Can we place other images used for buttons, bars or other UI elements in the Asset Catalog to be used with specific iOS versions? Or there is only way to do these programmatically?
I have the same problem. It would have been really nice, if Apple had developed a more flexible asset management, like Android (for example) has since many years...
Regarding your question: According to the official documentation, there is no such way (at least I could not read anything about it) at the moment (iOS 7).
I've finished up my first iOS 5 app (and only third iOS app overall) and I'm wondering if anyone out there has any recommendations for adding that touch of class, polish, professionalism, etc. to a plain-vanilla iOS app. I've taken a look at an iOS 5 appearance tutorial but I don't find it extremely helpful. What do you do to add polish to your UI? For example, do you add a logo view in your UINavigationBar? Do you create custom UIKit control backgrounds/images? Do you remove rounded edges from controls? I would especially appreciate any input related to how you use the new Appearance options in iOS 5 to accomplish your UIX goals.
For inspiration, look at the apps featured by Apple in the App store. Maybe hire an artist or designer familiar with iOS devices and their users (if you are not one yourself). There seem to be lots of creative ways to potentially "delight" the user, customize things for your specific app's purpose or customer base, but still stay within the spirit of the HIG.
