As part of your game publishing process, you may want to customize the splash screen that appears when launching your game on the device. Unity iOS Basic users can choose between four different orientations of the included splash screen, and Unity iOS Advanced users can use any texture to create their own unique splash screens to be displayed.
The splash screen can be customized in Player Settings. The desired splash orientation is specified via the "Default Screen Orientation" Player Settings (Resolution and Presentation section) property.
Using one of the included splash screens
You can choose one of four default splash screen orientations:
- Portrait - The user interface and splash screen are oriented vertically. The home button is on the bottom of the device.
- Portrait Upside Down - The user interface and splash screen are oriented vertically. The home button is on the top of the device.
- Landscape Right - The user interface and splash screen are oriented horizontally. The home button is on the left side of the device.
- Landscape Left - The user interface and splash screen are oriented horizontally. The home button is on the right side of the device.
Using a unique splash screen (Pro License feature)
Unity iOS Pro users can use any texture as a splash screen. The standard splash screen size varies with the device (320x480 pixels for 1-3rd gen devices, 1024x768 for iPad, 640x960 for 4th gen devices). Textures not matching this size will be automatically re-sized. Instructions:
- Drop your splash screen texture anywhere in the Assets folder.
- In Player Settings (Splash Image section), select your texture for Mobile Splash Screen, High Res. iPhone or iPad Portrait/Landscape properties. You need to specify only the ones that are applicable for your target device.
That's it! When your game is built, your custom image will be used.
