1242 × 2208 px, as the App Store states it on August 29, 2026.

What this size is for

The odd one in the table: an iPhone 8 Plus panel is 1920 × 1080, but iOS renders the interface at 2208 × 1242 and downsamples it to the display. Apple’s screenshot specification follows the render size, not the panel.

That is why a capture taken on the device is 1242 × 2208 and why the App Store expects that number here.

It is also the last 16:9 iPhone class, so a layout built for notch-era phones has to be reflowed rather than rescaled to fit it.

The mistake to avoid: Exporting 1080 × 1920 for this class because that is what the panel says. App Store Connect wants 1242 × 2208 and rejects the mismatch.

Devices in the 5.5-inch display slot

The App Store files these devices under the same slot, so one set covers all of them:

Will this file work on Google Play?

At 1 : 1.78 this canvas is inside Google Play's hard rule that no side may be more than twice the other, and inside its 320–3840 px bounds — so it uploads. Play still names 1080 × 1920 as the portrait size that makes a listing eligible for the placements where it recommends apps using screenshots, so treat this as a fallback rather than a plan.

Design at 1242 × 2208 without doing the maths

Open the editor with the canvas already set to 1242 × 2208, drop your app screens into a device frame, and export the whole set — watermark-free on the free plan.
