The two iPad sizes, and which one you need
Apple asks for iPad screenshots at one of two display sizes. 13-inch is 2064 × 2752, matching the iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) and the newer large iPads. 12.9-inch is 2048 × 2732, covering the iPad Pro 12.9-inch from its 2nd through 6th generations. If you only provide one, make it the 13-inch set: Apple scales it to the smaller iPad display sizes in the listing the same way it does for iPhone.
The part that catches developers out is that this is not optional. If your app’s target includes iPad, App Store Connect blocks submission until an iPad set exists, and it will not fall back to your iPhone images however good they are. Many first submissions are rejected for exactly this and nothing else.
Both sizes are part of the Pro plan here, because a tablet export is noticeably heavier to render than a phone one. The free plan covers the required iPhone size so you can see the result before deciding.
Both iPad sizes are already ticked — they are part of the Pro plan.
Build my setDesigning for a landscape-ish canvas
An iPad screenshot is a very different shape from a phone one — closer to 3:4 than 9:19.5 — and a layout that works on iPhone often looks sparse when stretched into it. Two things help. First, give the headline fewer words: there is more width, so a four-word caption sits on one line and reads as a statement rather than a paragraph. Second, pick a template with some structure to fill the extra space — Stage (preselected here) puts the iPad on a lit floor, and Split and Spotlight both give the background something to do rather than leaving a flat field around the device.
The iPad frame itself is drawn with a thin, even bezel and no notch, which is what current iPads look like, plus a small front camera at the top edge. It is a vector drawing, so it is just as sharp at 2752 pixels tall as the phone frames are at 2796.
Exporting an iPad and iPhone set together
Most apps need both, and there is no reason to build them twice. Upload your iPad screens, tick the iPad sizes together with the iPhone ones, and a single export gives you every folder — App Store/iPad 13-inch/, App Store/iPad 12.9-inch/, App Store/iPhone 6.9-inch/ — all at their exact pixel sizes with the same template, colours and captions.
One practical note: use screens actually captured on an iPad for the iPad folders. An iPhone screenshot scaled into an iPad frame is visibly wrong, and reviewers do notice. If you need the iPhone-first version of this page, the App Store screenshot generator opens with the phone sizes selected instead.
