Images.xcassets taking wrong image for the iPhone 6?

Question

I have set the three image for the @2x @Retina 4 and @3x.

enter image description here

When i run the app i got the following result.

iPhone 4s : twitter image
iPhone 5 : Google image
iPhone 6+ : facebook image.
iPhone 6 : twitter image

everything is good. but when I run on the iPhone 6 its taking the twitter image but it should take the google image.

Is this bug of xcode?

Why would the iPhone 6 use the iPhone 5 image? "Retina 4 2x" is for 4" devices. — rmaddy, Dec 20 '14 at 05:10
@rmaddy See this: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/MobileHIG/IconMatrix.html — Yasika Patel, Dec 20 '14 at 05:18
Ok fine iPhone 6 not take the iPhone 5 image. but why its taking the iPhone 4s image @rmaddy — Sunny Shah, Dec 20 '14 at 05:19
Yes, but the iPhone 5 is a 4" device. Since you provided an image specific to 4" devices, the iPhone 5 uses it. The iPhone 6 is not a 4" device. — rmaddy, Dec 20 '14 at 05:22
@SidShah Why are you trying to use different icons on different devices? — rmaddy, Dec 20 '14 at 05:23
because i have different size for all the device. I have followed this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26020979/xcode-6-xcassets-for-universal-image-support. — Sunny Shah, Dec 20 '14 at 05:25
@SidShah : I have faced the same problem, then I have managed this using codebase, find the similar code here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25892207/how-to-specify-size-for-iphone-6-customised-edge-to-edge-image?lq=1 — Mrunal, Dec 20 '14 at 08:04
Drop R4, use 2x, 3x. Set up large enough icons and scale them with autolayout — pronebird, May 05 '15 at 06:37
Drop Image view, size them, set aspect ratio constraints, set other constraints. — pronebird, May 05 '15 at 07:12

In iPhone 6 you will get the image which is of @2x In iPhone 5 and 5s you will get the image of Retina 4 @2x.

Check this example image I have set here. enter image description here

Result in iPhone 5

enter image description here

Result in iPhone 6

enter image description here

but in iPhone 4 and iPhone 6 you will get same image. For this time you have to code for different devices. Because apple does not provide the document for it. by the time if I got something new then I will post here.

Thanks!

This is ridiculous from apple.

There is no any specific place where you can put the iPhone 6 images. you have to do with the condition.

It is ridiculous! Because 1334/750 is about 1.778, which is close to 1136/640 = 1.775 while 960/640 = 1.5. My 640*1136 pictures do show properly on iPhone 6 while 640*960 pictures are distorted. – Qiulang Nov 09 '15 at 02:39
