Another way of easily checking your iPad or iPhone screen resolution is using free apps that show system information. You can find a few such apps in the App Store. However, most of them are either old or poorly developed, and the information they show is often inaccurate. To help you out, we searched the App Store for the best free apps to find iPad or iPhone screen sizes. Sadly, we ended up with a list of only two. Here are the free apps we found that show your iPhone or iPad screen resolution:
2. Use the ActMonitor app to find your iPhone or iPad resolution
ActMonitor is an app that shows you system information about your iPhone or iPad. Furthermore, it also lets you compare the main specs of any Apple iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Install ActMonitor, open it, and access the Specs tab. You can then see the list of specifications for your device, including the iPad or iPhone resolution - in the Display section.
3. Find your iPad or iPhone screen size with Lirum Device Info Lite
Lirum Device Info Lite is another free app that gathers and shows you information about your iPhone or iPad, while also monitoring its performance. Besides processor, memory, or battery usage graphs, it can also show you the iPhone or iPad screen resolution. To find this information, first, tap the hamburger button in the upper-left corner of the screen.
Then, in the menu that opens, access This Device.
Finally, tap on the Display section to expand it, and you can see your iPad or iPhone Resolution.
Do you know other ways of figuring out an iPad or iPhone screen resolution?
These are the methods we know for finding out your iPad or iPhone screen size. Unfortunately, neither is as easy as checking the Settings app could have been. We hope Apple decides to add this info in future versions of iOS and iPadOS, but we expressed the same hope in 2018, when this guide was first created, so we’re not exactly holding our breath here. Do you have any tips or tricks for finding out your iPhone or iPad screen resolution? Which method did you end up using? Let us know your story in the comments section below.
