Question

I have a universal iOS app for iPad and iPhone. I created a class with a xib and its for the iPad. How do I design it for the iPhone now? Create another xib for iPhone? If so, how and where do I tell the app to load the xib for the iPhone when needed, because right now it loads the iPad xib and everything is too big of course.
Thanks in advance

Well , your view controllers have a method called initWithNibName: bundle: .
Do this:

MyController *controller = [[MyController alloc] initWithNibName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"myController_%@",deviceName] bundle:nil];

EDIT:You have to make 2 xibs , right? Name them something like Settings_iPhone.xib and Settings_iPad.xib. When you want to show the Settings screen , go ahead and declare

NSString *deviceName = ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone) ? @"iPhone" : @"iPad";

After that :

Settings *controller = [[Settings alloc] initWithNibName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Settings_%@",deviceName] bundle:nil];
