Question

I am wondering how i can detect using the screen size is iPhone 5. My application at the moment using 3.5 inch interface on a iPhone 5 so when I used the code

CGSize result = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size;

This gave me 400 instead of 568 height of the screen size. Is that because I am using 3.5 inch interface on a iPhone 5. I know i need to change the layout of the application but due to our time constraint I wanted to keep it that way.

Or Do I need to get the scale factor to get the real pixel

CGFloat screenScale = [[UIScreen mainScreen] scale];

Please help…

you can easly detect iphone, iphone5 and iPad with below condition:-

 if([[UIDevice currentDevice]userInterfaceIdiom]==UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
 {
     if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.height == 568)
     {


     }
     else
     {
         //iphone 3.5 inch screen
     }
 }
 else
 {
        //[ipad]
 }
