I'm having some problems enabling native resolution on the iPhone 6 on the actual device itself, when I run in the simulator it runs at native 375x667 (verified by both launchscreen and nslog of viewcontroller size.

2015-04-29 13:24:24.220 aqrew_ios[7851:1294675] ViewController:didLayoutSubviews() - Width=375.000000 Height=667.000000

However when I run the same code on an actual iPhone 6 (iOS8.3) its running at scaled iPhone 5 resolution.

I've been through the SO How to enable native resoltuion and have the following in the LaunchImage assets setup and working, app is portrait only, iphone only:

AppIcons are:

However whilst it works perfectly on the iOS simulator its not working on the real device, would appreciate any ideas....

Thanks

If you go into the device settings app, in the 'display & brightness' section there is a setting called 'display zoom' which can be set to standard or zoomed. When zoom is enabled an iPhone 6+ scales up an iPhone 6 sized window, and an iPhone 6 zooms up an iphone 5 sized one.

(This caused me some stressful hours a couple months ago)

    Jef, thanks so much for the answer, that was it exactly. its been enabled on my phone for so long I didn't even remember I'd enabled zoomed mode. When I switch back to Standard then it works in native mode as expected. Sadly I'm not allowed to upvote you with my lack of reputation otherwise I would have. Thanks again Kate – Kate Wilkins Apr 29 '15 at 13:08
