If you want to utilize the complete screen space, you can add `Default-568h@2x.png` and rebuild the app and release it.

2) Do i have to make changes only in UI ?

You can utilize the complete screen space for iphone 5. You can code for screen modifications in case of other iPhones.

3) Will the iPhone 5 will its make it compatible?

Yes. It will make it automatically compatible. It will add a black strip on top and bottom to compensate for the extra space in the screen unless you add `Default-568h@2x.png`.
