Auto layout constraints - New iPhones

The constraints shown in the video work well on the 4in iPhones however the on the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus they don't. Maybe an update to the teachers notes would help future students out. My solution was to let Xcode set the suggested constraints.

Hi Tyler,

For the moment don't worry about that too much, if you finish this course and move onto the Build a Weather App with Swift Pasan explains how to use constraints to support devices starting from 4" going up to 5.5" and of course this techniques also work for iPad's as well.
