App Store Connect Screenshot Requirements for All Devices

Apple organizes screenshot requirements by device display size, and each size accepts specific pixel dimensions. The key tiers for iPhone are:

• 6.9-inch (iPhone Air and Pro Max and Plus models since iPhone 14 Pro Max) — 1320 × 2868, 1290 × 2796 or 1260 × 2736 px
• 6.5-inch (iPhone 14 Plus, 13 Pro Max, 11) — 1284 × 2778 or 1242 × 2688 px
• 6.3-inch (iPhone 17, 16 Pro, 15 Pro) — 1206 × 2622 or 1179 × 2556 px
• 5.5-inch (legacy, iPhone 8 Plus) — 1242 × 2208 px

An iPhone app needs 6.9-inch screenshots, or 6.5-inch ones if 6.9-inch aren't provided. App Store Connect scales them for the smaller iPhone sizes, so the other tiers are optional.

If your app runs on iPad, Apple requires screenshots for at least one iPad size. The primary requirement is iPad Pro 13-inch at 2064 × 2752 pixels (portrait) or 2752 × 2064 (landscape). As with iPhone, providing the largest size covers smaller iPads through cascading.

Screenshots must be in PNG or JPEG format, and Apple's specification states that images can't include alpha channels or transparencies. A PNG exported from a design tool often carries an alpha channel even when every pixel is opaque. The free screenshot resizer checks for it, and for the exact dimensions, and converts files in your browser.

Apple requires a minimum of 1 screenshot and allows a maximum of 10 per device size, per localization. Best practice is to use 6–8 screenshots to tell a compelling visual story. The first 3 screenshots appear in search results, so lead with your strongest visuals.

Each localization (language + region) in App Store Connect can have its own screenshot set. Localizing the caption text is usually the most useful place to start, because captions are the part of a screenshot people read. AppDrift's screenshot generator supports batch export for all device sizes and text replacement for multiple languages, making localized screenshot management practical at scale.

You can upload screenshots through the App Store Connect web interface under your app's App Store tab, or programmatically via the App Store Connect API. Tools like AppDrift's store publishing automate screenshot uploads alongside metadata, so everything stays in sync.
