So the new required screenshot sizes when submitting to iTunes (per their new Simplified Screenshot Submission Process) appear to be 1242x2208 (iphone) and 2048x2732 (ipad).

But I cannot find a simulator in my Xcode that creates these sizes. I have to use iPad Air and iPhone 6 Plus to take screenshots, then open them in photoshop and resize them, but the resized versions are 1 pixel off the required sizes so then I have to modify them slightly.

Thanks Apple, for adding another 3 steps to an already ridiculously long submission process (compared to Android, that is).

Am I just missing the correct simulators? What simulators will create these screen shots so that I dont have to go thru this lengthy process each time? I have over 100 apps on the app store so adding 3 more steps makes a HUGE difference when we release new code. 😟

Debug -> uncheck "optimize rendering for window scale"

Even this doesn't work for me. The screenshot is still small

Make sure the zoom level for the simulator window is set to 100%, even if part of it goes off the screen.

Between me and you I think this is a more straightforward process than a google play submission.

FYI this is still an issue - on 5.5" size I created an iPhone 8+ simulator to capture screen shots. However, the captured images are 1125 × 2436
