You can use a universal storyboard on iOS 7, but you won't have access to size classes and trait collections

Wether this is documented anywhere? – Anil Varghese Oct 28 '14 at 07:03
All of the supporting classes, such as UITraitCollection, are ios8 only – Paulw11 Oct 28 '14 at 07:09

What if i'am not using any supporting classes, doing all the things in storyboard?. Not for arguing. just for the information. Have tried like this? – Anil Varghese Oct 28 '14 at 07:14

You need to check once by running your app on iOS 7. There are some feature which works on iOS 8 and we need to handle for iOS 7 differently.

For eg

I created gradient colour on x-code 6, it worked on iOS 8 but not on iOS 7. so need to handle that too.
