I am using the following code (in AppDelegate) to detect if the device is iPhone 5
bool isiPhone5 = CGSizeEqualToSize([[UIScreen mainScreen] preferredMode].size,CGSizeMake(640, 1136));
it returns false always. this is not the first time I used that code. eventhe NSLog for that returns {320, 480}
NSLog(#"%#",NSStringFromCGSize([[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size));
NOTE: The app was for iPad only and then I made it universal. so I will have 2 storyBoards that is why I need the detection code.
Thanks
This should work mate,
bool isiPhone5 = ([[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.height == 568);
and make sure you use 4-inch simulator
I used the following code. You can try this:
#define IS_IPHONE_5 ( fabs( ( double )[ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height - ( double )568 ) < DBL_EPSILON )
Then you can do:
if (IS_IPHONE_5) {
//Do your stuff
}
Hope this helps.
#define IS_iPHONE_5 ( fabs( ( double )[ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height - ( double )568 ) < DBL_EPSILON )
if(IS_iPHONE_5)
{
//Do something
}
else
{
}
To identify iphone 5 try this
if( [[UIScreen mainScreen]bounds].size.height == 568){
//iphone 5
}
else
{
// less than iphone 5
}
try this
#include <sys/sysctl.h>
-(NSString *)getModel {
size_t size;
sysctlbyname("hw.machine", NULL, &size, NULL, 0);
char *model = malloc(size);
sysctlbyname("hw.machine", model, &size, NULL, 0);
NSString *deviceModel = [NSString stringWithCString:model encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
free(model);
return deviceModel;
}
this Link should help
See Below One
if(UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM()==UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone){
if( [[UIScreen mainScreen]bounds].size.height == 568){
//iPhone5 Device
}
else
{
// Normal iPhone device
}
}
EDIT: see same thread
Finally I figure it out.
Solution
Because the App was for iPad only the Default-568h#2x.png doesn't exist in the project. so after adding it all work properly.
Note and I dont need the above code because after making the app universal in the xcode project setting there is a part for iPhone/iPod Deployment info configurations (icons,mainStoryBorad,default screens ....) where I can setup the iPhone5 storybord after adding it to the project.
I've just upgraded to Xcode 4.5 GM and found out that you can now apply the '4" Retina' size to your view controller in the storyboard.
Now if I want to create an application that runs on both iPhone 4 and 5, of course I have to build every window twice, but I also have to detect whether the user has an iPhone with 3.5" or 4" screen and then apply the view.
How should I do that?
First of all, you shouldn't rebuild all your views to fit a new screen, nor use different views for different screen sizes.
Use the auto-resizing capabilities of iOS, so your views can adjust, and adapt any screen size.
That's not very hard, read some documentation about that. It will save you a lot of time.
iOS 6 also offers new features about this.
Be sure to read the iOS 6 API changelog on Apple Developer website.
And check the new iOS 6 AutoLayout capabilities.
That said, if you really need to detect the iPhone 5, you can simply rely on the screen size.
[ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height
The iPhone 5's screen has a height of 568.
You can imagine a macro, to simplify all of this:
#define IS_IPHONE_5 ( fabs( ( double )[ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height - ( double )568 ) < DBL_EPSILON )
The use of fabs with the epsilon is here to prevent precision errors, when comparing floating points, as pointed in the comments by H2CO3.
So from now on you can use it in standard if/else statements:
if( IS_IPHONE_5 )
{}
else
{}
Edit - Better detection
As stated by some people, this does only detect a widescreen, not an actual iPhone 5.
Next versions of the iPod touch will maybe also have such a screen, so we may use another set of macros.
Let's rename the original macro IS_WIDESCREEN:
#define IS_WIDESCREEN ( fabs( ( double )[ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height - ( double )568 ) < DBL_EPSILON )
And let's add model detection macros:
#define IS_IPHONE ( [ [ [ UIDevice currentDevice ] model ] isEqualToString: #"iPhone" ] )
#define IS_IPOD ( [ [ [ UIDevice currentDevice ] model ] isEqualToString: #"iPod touch" ] )
This way, we can ensure we have an iPhone model AND a widescreen, and we can redefine the IS_IPHONE_5 macro:
#define IS_IPHONE_5 ( IS_IPHONE && IS_WIDESCREEN )
Also note that, as stated by #LearnCocos2D, this macros won't work if the application is not optimised for the iPhone 5 screen (missing the Default-568h#2x.png image), as the screen size will still be 320x480 in such a case.
I don't think this may be an issue, as I don't see why we would want to detect an iPhone 5 in a non-optimized app.
IMPORTANT - iOS 8 support
On iOS 8, the bounds property of the UIScreen class now reflects the device orientation.
So obviously, the previous code won't work out of the box.
In order to fix this, you can simply use the new nativeBounds property, instead of bounds, as it won't change with the orientation, and as it's based on a portrait-up mode.
Note that dimensions of nativeBounds is measured in pixels, so for an iPhone 5 the height will be 1136 instead of 568.
If you're also targeting iOS 7 or lower, be sure to use feature detection, as calling nativeBounds prior to iOS 8 will crash your app:
if( [ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] respondsToSelector: #selector( nativeBounds ) ] )
{
/* Detect using nativeBounds - iOS 8 and greater */
}
else
{
/* Detect using bounds - iOS 7 and lower */
}
You can adapt the previous macros the following way:
#define IS_WIDESCREEN_IOS7 ( fabs( ( double )[ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height - ( double )568 ) < DBL_EPSILON )
#define IS_WIDESCREEN_IOS8 ( fabs( ( double )[ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] nativeBounds ].size.height - ( double )1136 ) < DBL_EPSILON )
#define IS_WIDESCREEN ( ( [ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] respondsToSelector: #selector( nativeBounds ) ] ) ? IS_WIDESCREEN_IOS8 : IS_WIDESCREEN_IOS7 )
And obviously, if you need to detect an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, use the corresponding screen sizes.

Really simple solution
if(UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
{
CGSize result = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size;
if(result.height == 480)
{
// iPhone Classic
}
if(result.height == 568)
{
// iPhone 5
}
}
We now need to account for iPhone 6 and 6Plus screen sizes. Here's an updated answer
if(UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
{
//its iPhone. Find out which one?
CGSize result = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size;
if(result.height == 480)
{
// iPhone Classic
}
else if(result.height == 568)
{
// iPhone 5
}
else if(result.height == 667)
{
// iPhone 6
}
else if(result.height == 736)
{
// iPhone 6 Plus
}
}
else
{
//its iPad
}
Some useful info

I've taken the liberty to put the macro by Macmade into a C function, and name it properly because it detects widescreen availability and NOT necessarily the iPhone 5.
The macro also doesn't detect running on an iPhone 5 in case where the project doesn't include the Default-568h#2x.png. Without the new Default image, the iPhone 5 will report a regular 480x320 screen size (in points). So the check isn't just for widescreen availability but for widescreen mode being enabled as well.
BOOL isWidescreenEnabled()
{
return (BOOL)(fabs((double)[UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size.height -
(double)568) < DBL_EPSILON);
}

let SCREEN_MAX_LENGTH = max(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT)
let SCREEN_MIN_LENGTH = min(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT)
let IS_IPHONE_4_OR_LESS = (IS_IPHONE && SCREEN_MAX_LENGTH < 568.0)

let IS_IPHONE_6 = (IS_IPHONE && SCREEN_MAX_LENGTH == 667.0)
let IS_IPHONE_6P = (IS_IPHONE && SCREEN_MAX_LENGTH == 736.0)
this is the macro for my cocos2d project. should be the same for other apps.

In Swift, iOS 8+ project I like to make an extension on UIScreen, like:
extension UIScreen {
var isPhone4: Bool {
return self.nativeBounds.size.height == 960;
}
var isPhone5: Bool {
return self.nativeBounds.size.height == 1136;
}
var isPhone6: Bool {
return self.nativeBounds.size.height == 1334;
}
var isPhone6Plus: Bool {
return self.nativeBounds.size.height == 2208;
}
}
(NOTE: nativeBounds is in pixels).
And then the code will be like:
if UIScreen.mainScreen().isPhone4 {
// do smth on the smallest screen
}
So the code makes it clear that this is a check for the main screen, not for the device model.
Borrowing from Samrat Mazumdar's answer, here's a short method that estimates the device screen size. It works with the latest devices, but may fail on future ones (as all methods of guessing might). It will also get confused if the device is being mirrored (returns the device's screen size, not the mirrored screen size)
#define SCREEN_SIZE_IPHONE_CLASSIC 3.5
#define SCREEN_SIZE_IPHONE_TALL 4.0
#define SCREEN_SIZE_IPAD_CLASSIC 9.7
+ (CGFloat)screenPhysicalSize
{
if(UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
{
CGSize result = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size;
if (result.height < 500)
return SCREEN_SIZE_IPHONE_CLASSIC; // iPhone 4S / 4th Gen iPod Touch or earlier
else
return SCREEN_SIZE_IPHONE_TALL; // iPhone 5
}
else
{
return SCREEN_SIZE_IPAD_CLASSIC; // iPad
}
}
I think it should be good if this macro will work in device and simulator, below are the solution.
#define IS_WIDESCREEN (fabs((double)[[UIScreen mainScreen]bounds].size.height - (double)568) < DBL_EPSILON)
#define IS_IPHONE (([[[UIDevice currentDevice] model] isEqualToString:#"iPhone"]) || ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] model] isEqualToString: #"iPhone Simulator"]))
#define IS_IPOD ([[[UIDevice currentDevice]model] isEqualToString:#"iPod touch"])
#define IS_IPHONE_5 ((IS_IPHONE || IS_IPOD) && IS_WIDESCREEN)
I found that answers do not include a special case for Simulators.
#define IS_WIDESCREEN ( [ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height == 568 )
#define IS_IPHONE ([[ [ UIDevice currentDevice ] model ] rangeOfString:#"iPhone"].location != NSNotFound)
#define IS_IPAD ([[ [ UIDevice currentDevice ] model ] rangeOfString:#"iPad"].location != NSNotFound)
#define IS_IPHONE_5 ( IS_IPHONE && IS_WIDESCREEN )
+(BOOL)isDeviceiPhone5
{
BOOL iPhone5 = FALSE;
CGRect screenBounds = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
if (screenBounds.size.height == 568)
{
// code for 4-inch screen
iPhone5 = TRUE;
}
else
{
iPhone5 = FALSE;
// code for 3.5-inch screen
}
return iPhone5;
}
This has been answered a hundred times but this solution worked the best for me and helped address the issue when new devices are introduced and I don't have a size defined.
Swift 5 Helper:
extension UIScreen {
func phoneSizeInInches() -> CGFloat {
switch (self.nativeBounds.size.height) {
case 960, 480:
return 3.5 //iPhone 4
case 1136:
return 4 //iPhone 5
case 1334:
return 4.7 //iPhone 6
case 2208:
return 5.5 //iPhone 6 Plus
case 2436:
return 5.8 //iPhone X
case 1792:
return 6.1 //iPhone XR
case 2688:
return 6.5 //iPhone XS Max
default:
let scale = self.scale
let ppi = scale * 163
let width = self.bounds.size.width * scale
let height = self.bounds.size.height * scale
let horizontal = width / ppi, vertical = height / ppi
let diagonal = sqrt(pow(horizontal, 2) + pow(vertical, 2))
return diagonal
}
}
}
This is because it's easy to memorize a phone's inch sizes, like, "5.5 inch" or "4.7 inch" device but difficult to remember the exact pixel sizes.
if UIScreen.main.phoneSizeInInches() == 4 {
//do something with only 4 inch iPhones
}
This also gives you the opportunity to do something like this:
if UIScreen.main.phoneSizeInInches() < 5.5 {
//do something on all iPhones smaller than the plus
}
The default: tries to uses the screen size and scale to try and calculate the diagonal inches. This is in case some new device size appears, it will try its best to determine and code, such as the last example, should still work.
CGFloat height = [UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size.height;
NSLog(#"screen soze is %f",height);
if (height>550) {
// 4" screen-do some thing
}
else if (height<500) {
// 3.5 " screen- do some thing
}
Relying in the size is wrong in so many levels. How about we ask to the system?
- (NSString *) getDeviceModel
{
struct utsname systemInfo;
uname(&systemInfo);
return [NSString stringWithCString:systemInfo.machine encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
}
Taken from Best way to detect hardware type, iPhone4 or iPhone5?, edzio27 answer.
This way you can detect device family.
#import <sys/utsname.h>
NSString* deviceName()
{
struct utsname systemInformation;
uname(&systemInformation);
NSString *result = [NSString stringWithCString:systemInformation.machine
encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
return result;
}
#define isIPhone5 [deviceName() rangeOfString:#"iPhone5,"].location != NSNotFound
#define isIPhone5S [deviceName() rangeOfString:#"iPhone6,"].location != NSNotFound
If the project is created using Xcode 6, then use the below mentioned code to detect the devices..
printf("\nDetected Resolution : %d x %d\n\n",(int)[[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.width,(int)[[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height);
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone){
if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] respondsToSelector: #selector(scale)])
{
if([[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 960 || [[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 480){
printf("Device Type : iPhone 4,4s ");
}else if([[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 1136){
printf("Device Type : iPhone 5,5S/iPod 5 ");
}else if([[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 1334){
printf("Device Type : iPhone 6 ");
}else if([[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 2208){
printf("Device Type : iPhone 6+ ");
}
}
}else{
printf("Device Type : iPad");
}
If the project was created in Xcode 5 and opened in Xcode 6, then use the below mentioned code to detect the devices.(This code works if no launching images for iPhone 6,6+ are assigned)
printf("\nDetected Resolution : %d x %d\n\n",(int)[[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.width,(int)[[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height);
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone){
if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] respondsToSelector: #selector(scale)])
{
if([[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 960 || [[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 480){
printf("Device Type : iPhone 4,4s");
appType=1;
}else if([[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 1136 || [[UIScreen mainScreen] nativeBounds].size.height == 1704){
printf("Device Type : iPhone 5,5S,6,6S/iPod 5 ");
appType=3;
}
}
}else{
printf("Device Type : iPad");
appType=2;
}
If you are still using Xcode 5 all together then use the following code to detect the devices (iPhone 6 and 6+ will not be detected)
printf("\nDetected Resolution : %d x %d\n\n",(int)[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.width,(int)[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.height);
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone){
if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] respondsToSelector: #selector(scale)])
{
CGSize result = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size;
CGFloat scale = [UIScreen mainScreen].scale;
result = CGSizeMake(result.width * scale, result.height * scale);
if(result.height == 960 || result.height == 480){
printf("Device Type : iPhone 4,4S ");
}else if(result.height == 1136){
printf("Device Type : iPhone 5s/iPod 5");
}
}
}else{
printf("Device Type : iPad");
}
Add a 'New Swift File'-> AppDelegateEx.swift
add an extension to AppDelegate
import UIKit
extension AppDelegate {
class func isIPhone5 () -> Bool{
return max(UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.width, UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.height) == 568.0
}
class func isIPhone6 () -> Bool {
return max(UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.width, UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.height) == 667.0
}
class func isIPhone6Plus () -> Bool {
return max(UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.width, UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.height) == 736.0
}
}
usage:
if AppDelegate.isIPhone5() {
collectionViewTopConstraint.constant = 2
}else if AppDelegate.isIPhone6() {
collectionViewTopConstraint.constant = 20
}
In Swift 3 you can use my simple class KRDeviceType.
https://github.com/ulian-onua/KRDeviceType
It well documented and supports operators ==, >=, <=.
For example to detect if device has bounds of iPhone 6/6s/7, you can just use next comparison:
if KRDeviceType() == .iPhone6 {
// Perform appropiate operations
}
To detect if device has bounds of iPhone 5/5S/SE or earlier (iPhone 4s) you can use next comparison:
if KRDeviceType() <= .iPhone5 { //iPhone 5/5s/SE of iPhone 4s
// Perform appropiate operations (for example, set up constraints for those old devices)
}
use the following Code:
CGFloat screenScale = [[UIScreen mainScreen] scale];
CGRect screenBounds = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
CGSize screenSize = CGSizeMake(screenBounds.size.width * screenScale, screenBounds.size.height * screenScale);
if (screenSize.height==1136.000000)
{
// Here iPhone 5 View
// Eg: Nextview~iPhone5.Xib
} else {
// Previous Phones
// Eg : Nextview.xib
}
Here is the correct test of the device, without depending on the orientation
- (BOOL)isIPhone5
{
CGSize size = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size;
if (MIN(size.width,size.height) == 320 && MAX(size.width,size.height == 568)) {
return YES;
}
return NO;
}
