Preview iOS app without iPhone 6 Plus

Question

I did a preview of the iOS app (video) using iPhone 6 and Quicktime in Yosemite, but I can’t download it for iPhone 6+ in iTunes Connect, and I don’t have an iPhone 6+ device.

Is there a way to do the Preview application (video) for iPhone 6+ without a device?

Answer 1

I found a good solution!

In the Keynote app, I resized the document in the same way as the size of the iPhone 6+, and imported the iPhone 6 video and resized it. I put the video according to the document and exported it as a video. What is it!

This is not an ideal solution, but it is good.

Hi iphoner, unfortunately, you need to record it using a higher resolution device and use Handbrake to convert your videos.

I used iPhone 6+ to record videos using Quicktime and ran into the same problem.

To download video for iPhone 6+, you need to download video with this size of 1920x1080.

1) Change "Anamorphic" to "custom"

2) cancel "keep aspect ratio"

3) Set the size (width and height) that you want (warning u can only reduce it / you need high resolution as the main video)

Other formats acceptable for the device:

ipad: 1200x900, 900x1200

iPhone 5.5inch / iPhone 3.5inch: 1920x1080,1080x1920

iPhone 4.7inch: 1334x750, 750x1334

A more detailed guide can be found in this Apple document.

You can generate video from the simulator by following these steps.

• Get your application in the simulator.
  I believe that you will need to run the simulator at a speed of 100% to ensure 1080: 1920

2. Open a terminal and run the following command

   $ xcrun simctl io booted recordVideo / path / Video.mov

3. Switch to your simulator window and skip the demo

4. When you finish your demo switch back to the terminal window and press CTL + C to stop recording

5. Edit Movie in iMovie

   • To download as a preview of the application, it must be <30 seconds. You can shorten the video a bit, or speed up some sections to get it in less than 30 seconds.
   • Once you finish editing the movie, you can export it (File-> Share-> iTunes)

6. This will save it to your iTunes library:
   / Users / marcbeavan / Music / iTunes / iTunes Media / Home Videos /

7. This file is ready for download to iTunes Connect
   The file information for my video is shown below.
   

Answer 4

I do a lot of app previews and all sizes. The easiest way is to have all the devices, but this is definitely not practical for most people. You can also edit the size post to "mimic" the actual device, even the iPad. I would also recommend avoiding the problem together if someone like snappdemo.com does this for you rather cheaply.

This command line works great for me every time. This is the result of answering a similar question ( link ):

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -acodec copy -crf 12 -vf scale=1080:1920,setsar=1:1 output.mp4 

It will take input.mp4 file, resize it and output ouput.mp4. Before running the command, you must install ffmpeg.

Of course, zooming in leads to a loss of quality. But if you don’t have a Plus screen, it’s much better than not having a video preview.
