Create iPad Screenshots for the App Store

Turn real iPadOS app screens into polished App Store product-page graphics with 13-inch iPad layouts, portrait or landscape presentation, split-view and multi-panel UI, localization support and high-quality export. Show what the app gains on a larger Apple display instead of enlarging an iPhone screenshot.

iPad Screenshot Toolkit

Design around iPadOS, Not an Enlarged iPhone Screen

iPad screenshots should communicate the real large-screen product experience. Use the extra space to show navigation, split views, sidebars, creative workspaces, dashboards or content layouts that are difficult to demonstrate on iPhone.

13-Inch iPad Layouts

Create App Store assets around Apple’s current required 13-inch iPad screenshot group.

Portrait iPad Screenshots

Use vertical layouts for reading, productivity, note-taking and other iPad workflows that naturally work in portrait.

Landscape iPad Screenshots

Use horizontal layouts for creative tools, dashboards, media, games and apps that benefit from wide iPadOS workspaces.

Split-View & Multi-Panel UI

Show sidebars, split panes, inspector panels and wider information structures that make the iPad version genuinely different.

Concise Feature Captions

Add short supporting copy while leaving the iPad interface large enough to understand and inspect.

Localized iPad Sets

Adapt copy and app screens for each target language while preserving the large-screen design system.

iPad Screenshot Workflow

Create an iPad Screenshot Set in Four Steps

Begin with genuine iPadOS captures, then build the store graphics around what the larger screen allows the product to do.

1

Select the real iPad screens

Use current iPadOS UI that shows large-screen navigation, wider workflows or other meaningful tablet behavior.

2

Choose portrait or landscape

Match the screenshot orientation to how the app is actually used on iPad rather than copying the iPhone listing orientation.

3

Add supporting brand structure

Use concise feature copy, clean backgrounds and consistent spacing while keeping the iPad UI dominant.

4

Export the required 13-inch assets

Use an accepted App Store Connect resolution, localize where needed and let Apple scale down for smaller iPad groups when the UI is unchanged.

iPad Listing Checklist

  • Use real iPadOS UI
  • Create the required 13-inch group

Current Apple iPad Screenshot Guidance

Use the Current 13-Inch iPad Requirements

Apple currently treats the 13-inch iPad group as the required large-screen screenshot set when an app runs on iPad, with smaller iPad groups able to use scaled assets when the interface remains the same.

13-Inch iPad Group

Current accepted screenshot examples include:

  • 2064 × 2752 px portrait.
  • 2752 × 2064 px landscape.
  • 2048 × 2732 px portrait.
  • 2732 × 2048 px landscape.
  • Required if the app runs on iPad.

Smaller iPad Groups & Scaling

Apple’s current reference also includes 12.9-inch, 11-inch, 10.5-inch and 9.7-inch groups.

  • 11-inch examples include 1488 × 2266, 1668 × 2420, 1668 × 2388 and 1640 × 2360 in portrait.
  • Apple can use scaled 13-inch screenshots for supported smaller iPad groups when accepted-size assets are not separately provided.
  • If the UI is the same across device sizes, highest-resolution screenshots can scale down automatically.

Upload & Localization

Current App Store Connect guidance states:

  • Upload from 1 to 10 screenshots.
  • Supported formats are JPEG, JPG and PNG.
  • Images cannot contain alpha channels or transparency.
  • Media Manager can be used to provide specific assets for other device sizes or localizations.
Apple can revise screenshot groups as iPad hardware changes. Check the latest App Store Connect screenshot specifications before final submission.
iPad Screenshot Use Cases

Use the Larger Canvas to Explain What the iPad Version Does Better

The iPad screenshot should make the large-screen advantage visible—whether that means more content, better navigation, a creative workspace or a wider product workflow.

Productivity Dashboard

Show sidebars, multi-column views, reports or project panels that make better use of iPad’s screen space.

Education App

Present lessons, reading material, navigation and learning controls together without compressing the experience into a phone-style frame.

Creative Tool

Show canvas space, toolbars, layers, inspectors or editing panels that become meaningful on a larger iPad display.

Business & Finance App

Use the wider layout to show charts, tables, reports and management workflows that benefit from larger-screen density.

Media & Entertainment App

Use landscape presentation when browsing, playback or content discovery is naturally better on a wider screen.

Localized iPad Listing

Adapt copy and iPadOS screen content for each target language while preserving the same large-screen visual identity.

iPad vs iPhone

Do Not Treat the iPad as a Bigger iPhone

iPad screenshots should demonstrate the real tablet experience, especially when the app has different navigation, more visible content or multi-panel layouts.

Design Area iPad Screenshot iPhone Screenshot
UI source Real iPadOS interface Real iPhone interface
Composition Can show sidebars, split views and larger workspaces Usually focuses on a compact mobile workflow
Required top group 13-inch when the app runs on iPad Use the applicable current iPhone group
Orientation Landscape can be especially useful for wide workflows Portrait is common, but landscape may fit games or media
Primary goal Show the value of the larger Apple screen Explain the core mobile app experience quickly

iPad Screenshot Generator FAQs

What is an iPad screenshot generator?

It helps turn real iPadOS app screens into polished App Store product-page graphics with device-specific dimensions, supporting copy, branding and localization.

Do I need iPad screenshots for App Store Connect?

If your app runs on iPad, Apple currently requires screenshots for the 13-inch iPad display group.

What are the current 13-inch iPad screenshot sizes?

Apple currently accepts 2064 × 2752 and 2048 × 2732 pixels in portrait, with 2752 × 2064 and 2732 × 2048 pixels in landscape.

How many iPad screenshots can I upload?

Apple currently allows one to ten screenshots for supported App Store screenshot groups.

What screenshot formats does Apple accept?

Current App Store Connect guidance supports JPEG, JPG and PNG screenshots without alpha channels or transparency.

Do I need separate 11-inch iPad screenshots?

Not always. Apple can use scaled versions from the 13-inch group when accepted-size 11-inch screenshots are not separately provided and the user interface is the same.

Should I reuse my iPhone screenshots for iPad?

Use genuine iPadOS captures when the tablet layout differs. Sidebars, split views, wider dashboards and other iPad-specific UI should be shown as they actually appear.

Can I localize iPad screenshots?

Yes. App Store Connect supports localized screenshots, and Media Manager can be used when you want specific assets for additional localizations or device sizes.

Does RenderDuck add a watermark to the standard export?

RenderDuck is designed to provide clean standard app marketing exports without placing a RenderDuck watermark over the finished graphic.
