You can change to Universal, so the application will RUN in both iPhone and iPad. Nonetheless, you will have to make changes to xib depending on the behavior of your app. Usually, iPads use list and detail views if it's in landscape, for example:

or in portrait view:

both look something like:

I want to point out again, on how your app behaves. Is not mandatory to use master-detail style, only if it fits your app.

And you can upload your binary to iTunes without problems. You could have problems if your app is using Universal and changing to iPhone or iPad only. And don't touch your plist.
