Does iOS SDK provides an easy way to check if the currentDevice has an high-resolution display (retina) ? The best way I've found to do it now is : if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] respondsToSelector:@selector(scale)] == YES && [[UIScreen mainScreen] scale] == 2.00) { // RETINA DISPLAY } ...

I thought I read/saw/heard something saying that apps built for iPhone 4's Retina Display would automatically run at 640x960 when installed on an iPad. However, can't find any documentation on that specific feature, and my app still runs at 320x480 when installed on an iPad. Is there a step I've missed to make this happen? Or did I jus...

I'm having some issues getting high resolution tab bar icons displaying correctly for iPhone 4. Basically I'm using the Apple guidelines of 96 x 64 for high resolution icons, but when I do this, my icon looks like it is being scaled many times in the tab bar icon area and only part of the icon appears. If I set the icon size to 30 x 30...

For our iPhone app, we are using 50 x 50 user image (from facebook). It works fine for iPhone 3G and 3GS but not for iPhone 4 due to its high resolution display. For iPhone 4 we tried to send 100 x 100 (variable height) image but it is not working for obvious reasons. Any thought? ...
I have a UIWebView which displays some local text and images. Either I've made a mistake somewhere, or the UIWebView doesn't automatically handle the @2x suffix for high resolution images.

This has been asked multiple times here, but without a solid and understandable answer. This is a web-app, not a native-app. I'm using: <link rel="apple-touch-startup-image" href="images/startup.png" /> to display the startup image. It loads fine if the image's resolution is 320x460. I tried using the retina's resolution which is 640...
