I set the deployment target to iOS8 and App store says "Compatibility: Requires iOS 7.0 or later". Can I force app to install only in iOS8 only?

I released an iOS 8 version of my app today and wanted to limit it only to users running iOS 8 (because it uses some new Core Motion APIs that only work with iOS 8). It seems like iOS7 users are still able to download my app, even though the deployment target is iOS8 and the App Store says "Compatibility: Requires iOS 7.0 or later". Can I force app to run in iOS8 only? Does the Deployment Target option in Xcode still control which version of the OS is required on the App Store?

Deployment target on all your TARGETS is the correct option. It's important to understand the different between "Deployment target" and "Base SDK". Both regard a iOS SDK version, but they have different meanings. To learn what read here.

The answer is, you have to set the Deployment Target in three different places, in the project, in the app target, and (in my case) in the extension. If you don't set it in all three locations the app won't show as iOS 8 only.
