Universal creative asset for header and search

Updated

Instead of designing two images, you can upload one universal creative asset and use it for both your product page header and your search results. In App Store Connect, the "Use header asset in search results" option is available only for universal assets.

The universal asset is 5244 x 2950 pixels (16:9) and must be a PNG with no transparency. Its safe area is smaller than those of the dedicated assets and sits above the vertical center of the canvas, so plan the layout around that box.

Questions

What size is the universal creative asset?
5244 x 2950 pixels, 16:9, PNG only.
Where is the safe area?
The official template marks a safe area of 1402 x 962 pixels, starting 1921 pixels from the left and 660 from the top. It is centered horizontally but not vertically.
Universal or separate images?
A universal asset saves time and keeps your brand consistent. Separate images give you more room inside each safe area and let you tailor the search image to people who are comparing apps.
