How to Generate a 6.9-inch Screenshot Set from a 6.5-inch Project
AppShots can generate a 6.9" iPhone screenshot set from a 6.5" project automatically — and the other way around — so you satisfy both required sizes without designing the whole set twice.
Steps
- Build your screenshot set in AppShots at one size — say 6.5”.
- Use generate to produce the 6.9” set automatically (or 6.5” from a 6.9” project).
- Review the reflowed layout at the new dimensions.
- Adjust anything that needs it.
- Export both sets — each validated to its exact size.
Why it works this way
The App Store asks for more than one iPhone screenshot size, and hand-building each is duplicated effort that drifts out of sync. AppShots treats one size as the source and generates the other from it, so your design decisions are made once and both required sets stay consistent and correctly dimensioned.
Tips & edge cases
- Design at one size, generate the rest — keep a single source of truth.
- Check text and framing after conversion; different aspect ratios can shift spacing.
- Both directions work — 6.5”→6.9” or 6.9”→6.5”.
FAQ
Do I have to design both iPhone sizes separately? No. Design one, then generate the other size automatically — 6.9” from 6.5” or the reverse.
Does the conversion keep my layout? Yes. It reflows your existing project to the new dimensions rather than starting over.
Are both exports App Store-valid? Yes. Each is validated against its exact target dimensions on export.
