6.5 inch (iPhone XS Max, iPhone XR) screenshot is required

For earlier versions of my app, I was able to submit an app with just a single device screenshot that was on 5.5 inch (iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 8 Plus).

But, while uploading an update to the app now, got to know that 6.5 inch (iPhone XS Max, iPhone XR) screenshot is also required in addition to the existing 5.5-inch display screenshot.

I just want to know is this a recent change in the requirement by Apple or am I missing on something?

Moreover, is there any workaround or alternate available if I don't have iPhone XR or XS Max?

Solution

  • This question seems especially aged to answer now as No good answer is here. I think this will be useful to new Apple developers or flutter developers. Many need to accomplish this issue as they may not have a mac book or many apple resources.

    We have two options. The first one is to use a different simulator on Xcode & MacBook or Resize screenshots images. One can use img2go.com to do this.

    For the first choice, suggested simulator use

    1. Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max for 6.5
    2. Apple iPhone 8 Plus for 5.5

    For the second option, Take screenshots on any iPhone and resize them as

    1. iPhone 6.5" Display (414 x 896 px)
    2. iPhone 5.5" Display (414 x 736 px)

    Please keep in mind that applications' resized screenshots work only if the app is a 100% responsive application.
