Setting Background Images for Various Screen Sizes

I am up to this video and i have tried all of the things recommended by ben after his app did not work either. i have found that app at the size of 3.5 inches works but at 4 inches i just have a white background. here is the code i had to display the bigger picture '''objective-c

  • (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad];

    if ([UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size.height == 568) { self.backgroundImageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"loginBackground-568h"]; }

} '''

Did anyone ever come up with an answer for this? I'm currently running into the same issue and it's very frustrating.

Something i came across might help

CGRect screenBounds = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
if 
(screenBounds.size.height == 568) {
    // code for 4-inch screen
} else
 {
(screenBounds.size.height == 480)
    // code for 3.5-inch screen
}
