App Store Screenshot Sizes for iOS 2026 — The Complete Guide
Every required and recommended App Store screenshot size for iPhone and iPad in 2026, updated for iPhone 16 Pro Max and iPad Pro M4.
App Store Connect is fussy. Screenshots that don’t match the spec get rejected, and ones that do match but use the wrong canonical size produce blurry presentations across older devices. This guide covers every iPhone and iPad screenshot size you need to know in 2026, what changed for iPhone 16 Pro Max and iPad Pro M4, and the production-ready settings to use.
Required iPhone screenshot sizes (2026)
Apple requires at least one screenshot set per app. The canonical size for 2026 is the 6.9″ iPhone 16 Pro Max at 1320 × 2868 portrait. If you don’t ship that, App Store Connect falls back to the 6.7″ iPhone 15 / 16 Plus set at 1290 × 2796.
- 6.9″ iPhone 16 Pro Max: 1320 × 2868 (portrait)
- 6.7″ iPhone 15 Pro Max / 16 Plus: 1290 × 2796
- 6.5″ iPhone 11 Pro Max / XS Max: 1284 × 2778 or 1242 × 2688
- 5.5″ iPhone 8 Plus: 1242 × 2208 (legacy listings)
iPad screenshot sizes
If your app supports iPad, App Store Connect requires at least one iPad screenshot set. The canonical 2026 size is the 13″ iPad Pro M4.
- 13″ iPad Pro M4: 2064 × 2752
- 12.9″ iPad Pro: 2048 × 2732
- 11″ iPad Pro / iPad Air: 1668 × 2388 or 1640 × 2360
Format and color profile
App Store Connect accepts PNG-24 or JPEG, sRGB, no transparency. PNG with alpha is silently flattened by App Store Connect, which produces ugly artifacts in your gallery. AppScreenStudio defaults to PNG-24 sRGB.
Common rejection reasons
- Status bar showing real carrier or low battery (Apple wants a clean status bar).
- PNG with transparency (App Store Connect strips alpha and produces visible halos).
- Screenshots that don’t match the listing’s language localization.
- Screenshots that include hardware UI from a competitor’s product mockup.
