I am making an iphone app using the latest Xcode i.e Xcode 4.5.1. The current XIB files are suited for iphone 5. I am not sure how to make the app that would work on both the screen sizes i.e 3.5 and 4 inch??

Is it that I have too use two different sets of *XIB*s??

Check out this answer, it's the approach I took.

Basically, create two different xibs or storyboards and choose which one to use at application launch.

2 different xib is a kind of solution but you need to play with AutoResizing property of View if you don't want to create different xib's. Also you need to use [email protected] for iPhone4 and [email protected] for iPhone5, these are the SplashScreen images to identify whther app is running on iPhone4 or iPhone4.

If you have created iPhone4 compatible application then just add [email protected] image. Your application will work for iPhone5. But you need to handle UI for this. For example if you are using UITableView so just use Flexible height instead of hardcore frame.
