Mac Catalyst resolution

I'm porting an iOS game to Mac Catalyst. When launched the game starts in a small window and seems to ignore the provided dimensions from code. Is there are a way to controll the window resolution or even better make it run in fullscreen?


The following post https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58526250/is-it-possible-to-use-full-screen-in-mac-catalyst suggests making additional mac bundle, but it looks a bit hacky and wondering if it might cause App store submission failure. Is there any official documentation or guidance on the matter ?

I'd listen to that SO thread, keeping in mind that some feel hacky and Catalyst are synonymous 😉


Otherwise, if this is something you'd like to see added to Catalyst, feel free to file an enhancement request via the bug reporter link below, being sure to add your report# to your thread for ref., thanks and good luck.

You can constrain the size of your window in two ways:

  • setting .canResizeToFitContent on your UIWindow to true, and adding size constraints to it, or

  • setting the properties of the .sizeRestrictions property of UIWindowScene to assign a min and max size.
