Actionable tactics, thresholds, and shortcuts curated for design specifications. Each hack ships with exact numbers where available.
1. Keep a master spec checklist
Before each submission batch, download the latest store guidelines and create a checklist of dimensions, formats, and limits. Check off each requirement per asset type to prevent rejections.
2. Use design tool templates
Many design platforms offer store-compliant templates. Starting from a template ensures correct dimensions and safe zones, saving iteration cycles and reducing human error.
3. Test on real devices
Approved sizes may render differently across screen sizes and devices. Preview your assets on at least one iOS phone, Android phone, and tablet to catch display issues before submission.
