Design Tips for App Store Screenshots

TipWhy
Design for the largest required size firstIt is easier to scale down than up without losing quality
Use device frames sparinglyApp Store already shows context - frames take up space and shrink your content
Put the most important information in the first screenshotUsers often decide within the first 1-2 screenshots
Keep text large and minimalScreenshots are viewed on small screens - small text is unreadable
Show real app content, not just featuresUsers want to see what the app actually looks like in use

If you need to resize images to exact pixel dimensions, the image resizer can help. For comparing how different resolutions stack up visually, the resolution comparison tool shows side-by-side comparisons. All data runs in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size screenshots does the App Store require?

Apple requires screenshots for specific device classes. The main required sizes are 6.9" iPhone (1320 x 2868), 6.7" iPhone (1290 x 2796), 6.5" iPhone (1284 x 2778), 5.5" iPhone (1242 x 2208), 13" iPad Pro (2064 x 2752), and 12.9" iPad Pro (2048 x 2732). All are expected in portrait orientation by default.

Why do iPhones have 3x scale and iPads 2x?

iPhones use a 3x Retina display scale factor, meaning each point on screen is rendered as 3x3 physical pixels. iPads use 2x because their larger screens already provide enough pixel density at that multiplier. The screenshot captures every physical pixel.

How do I take a screenshot on a Mac?

Press Command + Shift + 3 to capture the full screen, or Command + Shift + 4 to select an area. The resulting screenshot uses the native display resolution, so a 14-inch MacBook Pro produces 3024 x 1964 images.

Can I use landscape screenshots for the App Store?

Yes. For landscape screenshots, swap the width and height values. A 6.7-inch iPhone landscape screenshot would be 2796 x 1290. The App Store accepts both orientations for each device class.

Do I need to submit screenshots for every device?

Not for every individual device, but you need at least one set for each required display size class. Apple uses the closest size match for devices you do not provide specific screenshots for.
