App Store screenshot sizes at a glance
- iPhone app: Apple names the medium Dynamic Island display as required. The portrait sizes are 1206 × 2622 and 1179 × 2556. You can supply a matching set or review how App Store Connect scales another display class when your interface is consistent.
- iPad app: Add a 2064 × 2752 set for the required 13-inch iPad display. Capture the iPad interface if it differs from your iPhone app.
- iPhone Duo: Apple lists 1398 × 2034 for the outer display and 2007 × 2853 for the inner display. These become required in April 2027 for apps using the iOS 27.1 SDK or later; Duo uploads can currently display an optimization badge. Studio now has a separate design canvas for each display. Start an outer-display design or start an inner-display design, then check the exports below.
- Each size and language: Supply one to ten PNG or JPEG screenshots without an alpha channel. Check the exact upload wells for your app in App Store Connect.
Apple’s screenshot specifications are the source for these requirements. The free screenshot upload checker maps your files to the required display wells and checks dimensions, orientation, format and common PNG alpha channels; it cannot guarantee App Review acceptance.
Choose your starting sizes
Studio now starts a new iPhone project at 1206 × 2622, an exact size for Apple’s required medium Dynamic Island display. The free plan exports this size at full resolution. You can choose the 6.9-inch canvas instead if your app needs a large-display design; Pro adds other supported sizes and languages. Review each additional render at phone size, especially caption wrapping and the device frame.
Already have screenshots? Check your files against the App Store Connect upload wells before you submit them.
Starting a new set? Open a free medium-display Starter project in Studio to replace its sample screens and captions with your app. You can export five slides at 1206 × 2622 without an account or watermark.

Prepare the required medium-display iPhone size
Apple lists 1179 × 2556 and 1206 × 2622 for iPhones with a medium Dynamic Island display, with landscape versions in the opposite orientation. Its specification names this display among the required sizes and also documents scaling from other display classes when the interface is consistent. A new free Studio project starts at 1206 × 2622; Pro also exports 1179 × 2556 from the same design. Check how App Store Connect fills the medium-display well before submitting.
Understand Apple’s requirements
Apple also marks the 6.5-inch class as required when no 6.9-inch screenshots are provided, and the 13-inch iPad class as required for iPad apps. Its specification describes how screenshots can be scaled between display classes. Apple’s asset instructions explain where to upload or review a size-specific set.
Check your exported files
Use PNG or JPEG, without transparency or an alpha channel. Provide one to ten screenshots for each size and language set. Show your app’s current interface and replace placeholder content before submission.
Use the screenshot upload checker to check a single language’s files against the required iPhone and iPad displays, optional Duo displays, dimensions and file format. It runs in your browser and flags common PNG alpha channels. It recognizes Apple-listed sizes separately from those Studio exports. A passing result does not check screenshot content or guarantee App Review approval. Apple also says that more than half of each device’s screenshots must show the app in use; review that manually for each set.
Checking screenshots in a release pipeline? The open-source App Store Screenshot Preflight GitHub Action checks nested device folders inside each language folder. Set an optional exact display size, such as 1320x2868, to catch a missing direct upload file in any language before release. It also reports unlisted modern iPhone/iPad sizes, PNG transparency and more than ten images per folder and device class. The Node.js CLI and setup guide work outside GitHub Actions. Files stay on your runner. The check reads file headers rather than decoding images or reviewing their content; use the browser validator above to inspect individual files visually. Apple may scale another supported size when the interface is consistent, so choose required direct sizes for your own App Store Connect wells.
For example, Apple lists 1206 × 2622 for the 6.3-inch iPhone and 1668 × 2420 for the 11-inch iPad. Studio exports the first size directly, but not the 11-inch iPad size. The validator identifies both accurately. Check App Store Connect for the classes and scaled previews available to your app.
Export from Studio
Free includes full-resolution export at the default size. Pro adds all supported export sizes and multiple languages, organized into folders in a ZIP file.
Open the size reference to copy dimensions, or read the export instructions.
If you still need to design the set, plan five screenshots around real app screens before exporting, or read the free tool comparison to choose an editor.
Preparing different screenshot sets for different App Store search intents? Use the custom product page planner to map approved keywords to distinct page briefs before designing each variant. Apple reviews and publishes those pages in App Store Connect; StoreStudio supplies the planning and export workflow, not direct upload.
When your screenshots are ready, use the free App Store subtitle and keyword counter to check the text that appears beside them. It also catches repeated keywords before you paste them into App Store Connect.
