 ========
 
 The FreeRDP iOS port allows users to enjoy FreeRDP features on Apple iOS devices.
-The application was written to be compatible with devices running iOS 3.2 or higher. 
-Please note that Apple dropped armv6 support in their latest Xcode releases.
-If you want to compile for armv6 devices you will have to use an older Xcode version and build the OpenSSL libraries for armv6 as well.
-
-For building the GUI part there are two possibilities:
-* integrated build - have cmake to operate Xcode and build everything
-* manual build - build FreeRDP libraries and invoke xcodebuild or Xcode manually for the frontend
-
-Manual builds should be used for development.
+The application was written to be compatible with devices running iOS 4.3 or higher.

 - cmake version >= 2.8.9
 - latest Xcode installed (>= 4.6)

 - pre-build static OpenSSL libraries (see below)

 Building
 ========
 
-Integrated build
-----------------
-
 Run the following commands in the top level FreeRDP directory:
 
-cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=cmake/iOSToolchain.cmake
-make
+cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=cmake/iOSToolchain.cmake -GXcode
 
-After that you should have a client/iOS/bin/<Debug or Release>/iFreeRDP.app application package.
+This command will create a XCode project in the FreeRDP root folder called FreeRDP.xcodeproj.
+Open the project in XCode and modify, build or run the app. 
 
-Manual iOS builds
------------------
+Alternatively you can also build the project from the command line using xcodebuild:
 
-First run cmake to prepare the build:
-
-cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=cmake/iOSToolchain.cmake -DIOS_BUILD_OBJC=OFF
-make
-
-Now you can run your favourite xcodebuild command in client/iOS like this:
-
-cd client/iOS
-xcodebuild -project iFreeRDP.xcodeproj -configuration Debug -sdk iphoneos6.1 install
+xcodebuild -project FreeRDP.xcodeproj -configuration Debug -sdk iphoneos6.1
 
 Notes: 
      
 * XCode, by default will build the application into its derived data location (usually in ~/Library/Developer/...).
 If you want to specify an output directory add CONFIGURATION_BUILD_DIR=<output-path-here> to the end of above command line.
 
-* If using XCode choose "Open Other" from the welcome screen, browse to the client/iOS directory in your FreeRDP folder and select iFreeRDP.xcodeproj.
+* If using XCode choose "Open Other" from the welcome screen, browse to the FreeRDP root directory and select FreeRDP.xcodeproj.
