I am not sure why this error is being thrown when my application is validated for submission. My application is marked as iPhone application with icon.png as 57 X 57. The error says: iPad:icon.png icon dimensions (57X57) don't meet the size requirements. The icon must be 72X72 pixels, in .png format.

I would just supply all of those icons to cover all the cases (Retina display, etc.)

But my app is not a universal app it is an iPhone app. I am not sure why it is asking for iPad icons.

They may be requiring this now because any iPhone app will run on the iPad and the icons will have to be scaled up and won't look very good. Like I say, I'd just design your icons in 512x512 then export them at all the different resolutions.

I found the problem. I edited the project settings and specified the iPhone device but did not edited the target. I always thought that project settings are the same as target I guess they are NOT. I changed the target and it worked fine.

i think because your application it's a universal application and so you should provide the same icon in different size and fill the plist in the proper way.

  1. iphone/ipod
  2. iphone 4
  3. ipad

I usually use this psd template: http://www.nightlion.net/web/2010/iphone-4-ipad-icon-design-psd-template/

It was set as iphone/ipad app so I changed to iphone only but still getting the same error!

Target settings override project settings, if you define a setting in the target. You must have previously changed the target settings.
