How to Enable Native Resolution For Apps on Iphone 6 and 6 Plus

How to enable native resolution for apps on iPhone 6 and 6 Plus?

You can add a launch screen file that appears to work for multiple screen sizes. I just added the MainStoryboard as a launch screen file and that stopped the app from scaling. I think I will need to add a permanent launch screen later, but that got the native resolution up and working quickly. In Xcode, go to your target, general and add the launch screen file there.

Use iPhone 6/6s/7 Plus' Native Resolution

glkView.contentScaleFactor = UIScreen.main.nativeScale

See the answers to this question for more information.

Disable native resolution ONLY for iPhone 6 Plus

There is not. You can only support 6 and 6 Plus together or none of them. As soon as you use the Launch Screen File Xcode assumes you want to support them.

What is the target resolution for iPhone 6 Plus apps?

Apple's guideline for all devices is to stop hard coding screen sizes and use Autolayout. If yo are targeting the iPhone 6/6+ you can assume iOS8 and Xcode 6 which makes Autolayout much easier.

It you really want to work to a specific screen resolution, you should use 1242×2208 which is downscaled to 1080x1920 in hardware.
