2026 reference guide
App Store screenshot sizes (2026)
Every dimension App Store Connect accepts in 2026 — iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac, Apple TV, and Vision Pro — plus the format rules that get screenshots rejected.
The short answer
For 2026, you only need two sizes to cover the required slots: 1320×2868 px (or 1290×2796 px) for iPhone and 2064×2752 px (or 2048×2732 px) for iPad. Apple automatically scales these down for every smaller device. Everything else is optional.
iPhone screenshot sizes
The 6.9-inch display set is the one required iPhone size. Apple uses it for all current iPhones and scales it for older models unless you upload separate legacy sets.
| Display | Portrait (px) | Landscape (px) | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6.9″ (iPhone 17 Pro Max class) | 1320 × 2868 or 1290 × 2796 | 2868 × 1320 or 2796 × 1290 | Required |
| 6.5″ (iPhone 11 Pro Max class) | 1284 × 2778 or 1242 × 2688 | 2778 × 1284 or 2688 × 1242 | Optional — scaled from 6.9″ |
| 5.5″ (iPhone 8 Plus class) | 1242 × 2208 | 2208 × 1242 | Optional legacy |
iPad screenshot sizes
If your app runs on iPad, the 13-inch set is required; smaller iPads are scaled from it.
| Display | Portrait (px) | Landscape (px) | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 13″ iPad Pro (M4) | 2064 × 2752 or 2048 × 2732 | 2752 × 2064 or 2732 × 2048 | Required for iPad apps |
| 12.9″ iPad Pro (legacy) | 2048 × 2732 | 2732 × 2048 | Optional legacy |
Apple Watch, Mac, Apple TV, and Vision Pro
| Device | Size (px) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Apple Watch Ultra | 410 × 502 | Current required Watch size |
| Apple Watch 45 mm | 396 × 484 | Accepted alternative |
| Apple Watch 44 mm | 368 × 448 | Accepted alternative |
| Apple Watch 40 mm | 312 × 390 | Accepted alternative |
| Mac | 2880 × 1800 | 16:10 — also 2560×1600, 1440×900, 1280×800 |
| Apple TV | 3840 × 2160 | Also 1920×1080 |
| Apple Vision Pro | 3840 × 2160 | Landscape only |
Apple's format rules (the rejection traps)
- Exact dimensions only. A screenshot one pixel off an accepted size is rejected at upload.
- PNG or JPEG in RGB color space — no transparency or alpha channel.
- Up to 10 screenshots per device class, per locale.
- The first 3 portrait screenshots show in App Store search results — put your strongest message there.
- Show the actual app. Apple rejects screenshots that misrepresent the product or consist only of marketing graphics.
- Localize per market. Each locale can have its own screenshot set — localized captions convert measurably better.

Common questions
What is the App Store screenshot size for iPhone in 2026?
The primary iPhone screenshot size is 1320×2868 px (6.9-inch display, portrait). App Store Connect also accepts 1290×2796 px for the same slot. Upload one of these and Apple scales it down for smaller iPhones automatically.
What is the App Store screenshot size for iPad?
The primary iPad size is 2064×2752 px (13-inch iPad Pro, portrait). 2048×2732 px is also accepted. One 13-inch set covers all smaller iPads unless you upload device-specific sets.
How many screenshots can I upload to the App Store?
Up to 10 screenshots per device class and locale. The first 3 portrait screenshots (or the first landscape screenshot) appear in App Store search results, so they matter most for conversion.
What file format do App Store screenshots need?
PNG or JPEG, RGB color space, no transparency (no alpha channel). Dimensions must match an accepted size exactly — a screenshot even one pixel off is rejected at upload.
Are Apple Watch screenshots required?
Only if your app has a watchOS component. The current size is 410×502 px (Apple Watch Ultra). Older accepted sizes include 396×484, 368×448, and 312×390 px.
What's the fastest way to create screenshots in these sizes?
An AI generator like Storescreens exports at accepted App Store sizes automatically — 1290×2796 for iPhone, 2064×2752 for iPad, 410×502 for Apple Watch — so you never resize or get rejected for dimensions.
