I'm developing an iPhone app and the only device I have for testing is an iPad 2. I can run the app on the iPad and it will use the internal iPhone emulator (or whatever it's called). But the display ratio is that of the older iPhones, not retina-size (see this, I need the last version). How do I change the aspect ratio?

  • By Retina-size, do you mean iPhone 5 size, or iPhone 4 size, since both devices have Retina displays? Do you want any Retina display size, or specifically the increased height provided by the iPhone 5's 4″ Retina display? By the way, a Retina iPad will show an iPhone app at iPhone 4 resolution (Retina 3.5″).

  • @grgarside by retina-size I mean the new aspect ratio, as shown in the link I've sent. Commented Oct 2, 2013 at 4:21

There is no option to change to retina or 4" screen size for iPhone apps running on the iPad. You should use the simulator in Xcode instead (or get another device).

  • I can't use the simulator because the app is a recording-centered app. Commented Oct 2, 2013 at 4:21
