iOS, size of images for background

I'm making my first iphone game using swift/xcode with gimp to draw the graphics. I'm having trouble understanding what size I should make the image in gimp to use it for the background of my iphone game.

The various devices have different screen sizes, so presumably you will want your image to adapt. Thus it really isn't about your image but about the image view that will display it (assuming you're using an image view). The things to think about are:

  • How to use constraints to pin the edges of the UIImageView to the edges of the screen.

  • How to set the content mode of the UIImageView so that it displays the image acceptably on all device sizes.
