Depending on the complexity of the application and amount of core services utilized, converting an existing manual retain/release project to ARC can instigate a battle you may not want to fight. When I attempted that with my medium complexity application, I quickly realized it was a mistake, held up the white flag, and retreated. But understand, my application is mature so there was (and is) no pressing need to convert to ARC. In any case, I wouldn't recommend converting an existing application to ARC solely for the sake of doing so; there should be a compelling reason. That's one man's humble opinion.

It’s best to use ARC uniformly in a project and not mix with non-ARC modules. 
Xcode has a tool to upgrade projects to ARC. I have used it a number of times, 
and it seems to do a very good job.
