iPhone app running on iPad (Compatibility mode)

I just built an iPhone app. I was told that this app should automatically run on the iPad in compatibility mode. However, this is not happening when I run my app on the iPad simulator. The screen is weirdly cropped (please see below).

Is there anything special that I need to do in order be able to run my app on the iPad (compatibility mode)? I already have iPhone selected under project > General > Deployment Info > Devices.

I am obligated to do this because of the following App Store requirement:

iPhone Apps must also run on iPad without modification, at iPhone resolution, and at 2X iPhone 3GS resolution

That is actually compatibility mode. That is how all iPhone only apps will look on the iPad. If you built the application using auto layout, you can enable your application to be universal and see how the app fills the screen of the iPad as full support iPad app.
