Why iOS-specific
Apple rejects transparency and needs exact sizes (specs). This preset handles both.
Tips
Real UI only (2.3); first two screenshots matter most.
Other tools
General generator · size checker.

How to make iOS screenshots with the generator
Follow these steps in order. Each one is something we do on client work.
- Choose iPhone 6.9-inch. Exports at an accepted size.
- Upload a real capture. From the current build.
- Write the caption. Short and benefit-led.
- Add iPad if needed. 13-inch set.
- Export and check. Pixel size.
- Upload in order. First three matter most.
Worked example (hypothetical)
This example is illustrative. The app is made up, and so are any numbers in it.
Say Lumi Notes exports three iPhone screenshots and forgets iPad. Because the app runs on iPad, App Store Connect asks for iPad screenshots too. We'd make a 13-inch set before submitting.
Screenshot specs we design to
Both stores publish exact requirements. These are the ones that matter most for a phone-first app.
| Store / device | Size or rule | Count |
|---|---|---|
| App Store, iPhone 6.9-inch | 1320 × 2868, 1290 × 2796 or 1260 × 2736 px (portrait) | 1–10 per device size |
| App Store, iPad 13-inch | 2064 × 2752 or 2048 × 2732 px (portrait) | 1–10 per device size |
| App Store, format | .jpeg,.jpg or.png | — |
| Google Play, phone | JPEG or 24-bit PNG, 320–3,840 px, long side no more than 2× the short side | Minimum 2 to publish, up to 8 per device type |
| Google Play, Chromebook / tablet | 1,080–7,680 px, 16:9 or 9:16 | Minimum 4 recommended |
When to use the generator vs a designer
| Need | Generator | Designer |
|---|---|---|
| Quick launch set | Yes | Optional |
| Brand system | Limited | Yes |
| Localized sets | Manual | Templated |
How we measure the result
A tool gets you a correct file or a quick check; it doesn't tell you whether the result converts. After you upload, watch conversion in App Analytics or Play Console, and use product page optimization or store listing experiments to compare versions. Re-run the tool whenever Apple or Google updates their specs, which they do when new devices ship. We re-check the official spec pages each time we update these tools.
Common mistakes
- Missing iPad set. Submission blocked.
- Fake screens. 2.3.3.
- Long captions. Unreadable.
- Wrong order. Weak first impression.
