Black bars on launch screen on iPhone5

Asked By Eric S Vazquez 25 points N/A Posted on - 10/19/2014

I have bought  iPhone 5. I had to go through the silliness of adding a [email protected] to the project to get the app to use the full height of the iPhone 5. In late 2014 are we still doing that? We have asset catalogs and the LaunchScreen.xib file. Do we still need to add the [email protected] file? If so, where does it go now? I've tried a few different things and I can't get rid of the black bars in a new app created with Xcode 6 GM.

Black bars on launch screen on iPhone5

If you are still using operating system below iOS 8 follow the below given steps:-

Select General or App icons and then go to images then launch Images–> launch Images for asset catalog –> add desired resolution of the image for retina4 in the selection option.

So I guess the LaunchScreen.xib is useless if you target iOS < 8, unless you want to update both that and the asset catalog when the image changes.
