If you want to support more devices then previous version then you does not need to change any thing in iTunes Store other then you just have to add proper screen shots for supported devices.

But if you want to remove previously supported devices, which are installed in user's devices,then Apple does not accept your build .

"This bundle is invalid. The key UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities in the Info.plist may not contain values that would prevent this application from running on devices that were supported by previous versions."

"This bundle does not support one or more of the devices that were supported in the previous bundle for this app. Bundles must continue to support any devices previously supported."

If you still wants to remove previously supported devices, then you have to upload new build with support you want to provide for devices.

But you can not use same bundle Identifier and same name.

So, your previous user who downloads your previous app have to download this app from App Store.

Removing your app from the store, and uploading the update with a different bundle ID, will allow you to narrow the range of devices your update supports. However the update will be listed on the store as a separate app. Existing users of your app must purchase the update through the App Store, just like new customers.

Because the update will be treated as a different app, it must have a different name in iTunes Connect than the name of the app already in the store.
