At what resolution will an iPhone only app run at on an iPad Pro?

[iMore Question]

I have a few iPhone only apps that I would like to play on my iPad Pro. How do you think the resolution will be if I am able to play them on the iPad Pro? Has anyone been able to do this?

they will play but will look horrible and boxed out

Yep, you will be able to use them but they will look ridiculous. In fact some of the iPad apps that aren't upgraded for the Pro look ridiculous. The iPad Pro seems to be selling pretty well so hopefully developers will update their apps to take advantage of all the extra screen real estate.

Hi,

All of the unoptimized apps will be rendered with much larger objects, as the destination screen resolution would be much lower; the iPhone apps (assuming they are iPhone 5 optimized) would use a fraction of the screen with x2 zoom available, whereas the iPad apps without its release targeting the Pro will have their objects twice as large, roughly, but will use full screen (have confirmed a few acting as such).

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
