Itunes Connect requires screenshots from Iphone 6/6+

I get two error messages that I didn’t get using the same Corona version on Tuesday for uploading to App Store.

“You must provide a screenshot for 4.7-inch Retina display, because your app binary supports 4.7-inch Retina displays.”

Plus same message for 5.5-inch.

Did not provide any launch images for Iphone 6/6+.

I will fake the screenshots to get the app up, but is this fixed in the newest Corona release? I’m on the next newest and call me paranoid, but I won’t update the second before uploading the app. Things get deprecated and this project is done. :slight_smile:

Is this a corona issue or an Apple Appstore requirement?

If you’re using 2511, it is iOS 8 based so Apple probably figures out that you need to support the bigger devices.   2511 should let you access the Xcode iOS simulator and you should be able to get screen shots.  Most people however build their own images to the specifications and have the screen shot included as part of the image you actually upload to iTunes Connect.

No need to fake them if you don’t have a device. In fact I never use a device to make my screenshots anymore.

I always use the Xcode Simulator and just press Command-S to take one. Just start your app with the device you want. It’s much faster than fiddling around with an actual device, and all your screenshots get saved to the desktop making it easy to group them by device for upload.

doubleslashdesign: Apple changed upload validation and thinks something’s missing from the upload, and Corona must follow suit. (As with the info-plist entries previously.) The app wasn’t created with the latest Corona, though.

The app is uploaded, but I guess I could test it by creating a new version on Itunes Connect, upload it, see if it passes, and reject the binary.   

Rob: I’m on 2393a. IOS8 may support the new devices, but the binary generated seems to make App Store require screenshots for them. It was just a tentative question - I will update Corona and test this on my first opportunity, if someone else doesn’t beat me to it :slight_smile:
