IOS UIImage of launch image for current device

Question

is there way to get launch image as UIImage for current device? or UIImageView with an image

Answer 1

You just need to get Default.png which will have any @2x applied as necessary.

- (UIImage *)splashImage {
    return [UIImage imageNamed:@"Default.png"];
}

If you care about getting the iPhone 5 specific one you need to do a height check:

- (UIImage *)splashImage {
    if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.height == 568.0){
        return [UIImage imageNamed:@"Default-568h.png"];
    } else {
        return [UIImage imageNamed:name];
    }
}
