What is the minimum deployment target for using UISplitViewController on iPhone?

When the iPhone 6+ came out UISplitViewController was still restricted to iPad devices, so I rolled my own simplified split view controller for use in iPhone 6+. Consulting the current documentation it seems that the restriction has gone and that UISplitViewController is now available on iPhone, so naturally I am considering to switch to UISplitViewController.

I haven't actively tracked the history of UISplitViewController, though, and I haven't been able to find out with a few internet searches in which iOS version the restriction went away. This information is important to me because my app should still support devices with older iOS versions installed. Currently the app's deployment target is set to iOS 9.

So what is the minimum deployment target I have to set in my app if I want to use UISplitViewController on iPhone? Is iOS 9 sufficient?

The UISplitViewController is available on iPhone since iOS8, so iOS9 is sufficient.
