All iPads are not created equal, and resolutions can vary. Here’s a list of resolutions to help you make pixel-perfect wallpapers for your iPad, iPad mini, iPad Air, or iPad Pro.
A quick way to make your iPad feel more personal is to change your wallpaper to match your style. However, unless you know the resolution of your iPad’s screen, you might have difficulty finding or making an image that works well.
Knowing your screen resolution means you can design the perfect wallpaper without worrying about ugly automatic stretching, shrinking, or cropping. We’ve created an easy-to-use table that allows you to find your resolution in just a few seconds.
