How do I change the size/appearance of the view controller ?

8,372 PointsThat's because the way the new Xcode sets up the views. They now use a more universal approach called adaptive layout where you design the UI across all sizes (iPad, iPhone 6+, 6, 5, 4) instead of having to use multiple storyboards for each different size screen.
You should be able to change the size in the size inspector. Change the simulated size from Fixed to freeform and input your new width and height. (iPhone 5 = 320 x 568).
