App Store Screenshot Sizes & Dimensions
· By ScreenKit Team
Apple requires App Store screenshots to match the accepted pixel dimensions for each device display class. In 2026, the App Store screenshot sizes most teams should start with are the iPhone 6.9-inch display, which accepts 1320×2868, 1290×2796, and 1260×2736 in portrait, and the iPad 13-inch display if the app runs on iPad. Here are the exact App Store screenshot dimensions, fallback rules, and practical export targets for iPhone, iPad, and universal apps.
Quick answer
For current iOS App Store screenshots, export the 6.9-inch iPhone size first: 1320×2868, 1290×2796, or 1260×2736 in portrait. If your app runs on iPad, also provide iPad 13-inch screenshots at 2064×2752 or 2048×2732. Apple allows 1 to 10 screenshots in JPEG, JPG, or PNG format.

What are the dimensions for an App Store screenshot?
App Store screenshot dimensions depend on the device display class. The current 6.9" iPhone slot accepts 1320×2868, 1290×2796, or 1260×2736 in portrait. The 6.5" fallback accepts 1284×2778 or 1242×2688. iPad 13" accepts 2064×2752 or 2048×2732. Apple validates pixel dimensions before upload.
What size are iOS App Store screenshots in 2026?
For new iPhone screenshots, start with the 6.9" display slot: 1320×2868, 1290×2796, or 1260×2736 in portrait. If your app runs on iPad, also provide iPad 13" screenshots at 2064×2752 or 2048×2732.
What is the main App Store screenshot size to export first?
Export the 6.9" iPhone screenshot size first: 1320×2868, 1290×2796, or 1260×2736 in portrait. It is the lead current iPhone display class, and App Store Connect can scale it for some smaller iPhone slots when those screenshots are missing.
How many screenshots can I upload to the App Store?
You can upload 1 to 10 screenshots per device size per localization. A practical App Store screenshot set usually uses 4–6 images to show the app's core value, onboarding, and strongest features.
What format should App Store screenshots be?
Apple accepts JPEG, JPG, and PNG files. PNG is a good default for crisp text and UI elements; JPEG is fine for photo-heavy screenshots.
What happens if my App Store screenshot is the wrong size?
App Store Connect rejects the upload with a dimension mismatch error before you can submit for review. You won't lose review time — the upload simply fails until you provide the exact required pixel dimensions.
Do I need screenshots for every iPhone size?
No. App Store Connect can scale screenshots from larger accepted display classes. You should still export the most important classes separately when you want exact composition control, especially 6.9" iPhone and 13" iPad.
Are iPhone 16 Pro Max screenshots different from iPhone 15 Pro Max?
Both devices are covered by the 6.9" display class. Use 1320×2868, 1290×2796, or 1260×2736 portrait screenshots for current Pro Max / Plus listings.
Can I upload landscape screenshots to the App Store?
Yes. Apple accepts landscape screenshots by swapping the accepted dimensions, for example 2868×1320, 2796×1290, or 2736×1260 for the 6.9" iPhone slot.
Do I need to localize App Store screenshots?
Localizing screenshots is optional, but it is useful when you sell in multiple languages. Apple lets you upload a separate screenshot set per localization so the on-image text can match the store listing language.
Can I use the same screenshot for multiple device sizes?
You can reuse the same design, but each uploaded file needs to match an accepted pixel size for its target display class. With ScreenKit you can design once and export the required store sizes from the same project.
