You can't, since the info.plist is readonly on with the app bundle. You will have to do it by code.

Remove all mainwindows from the info.plist and here is an example:

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];

    UIViewController *rootViewController = nil; 
    // Override point for customization after application launch.
    if (YES) { //You check here
        rootViewController = [[SomeViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"SomeViewController" bundle:nil];
    } else {
        rootViewController = [[OtherViewContoller alloc] initWithNibName:@"OtherViewContoller" bundle:nil];
    }
    self.window.rootViewController = rootViewController;        
    [self.window makeKeyAndVisible];

    return YES;
}

The in the main.m:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

#import "AppDelegate.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    @autoreleasepool {
        return UIApplicationMain(argc, argv, nil, NSStringFromClass([AppDelegate class]));
    }
}
