UI looks different in Editor and iPhone 6 Plus

Hi all,

Please see the attached screenshot, which shows the Unity editor on the left, and the app running on my iPhone 6 Plus.

Please can someone explain why the UI has not scaled correctly on my phone? In the editor, if I set to free aspect and stretch the screen in any dimension, it looks much better than when it runs on the phone - I want everything to expand into the empty games in the Y axis rather than leaving a big void with empty space. I must be missing something obvious.

Update:
When I maximum the viewport to get it as close to iPhone 6 resolution as possible, it's starting to behave the same as on the phone. Still, i'm confused as to how I can fill the vertical space?

Thanks

Mat

 

Im getting same issues with UI and Iphone 6 plus. Customers complaining that released buggy game.
Sad times, things like this dont get much attention but serious issues with iPhone 6 Plus.
Using 4.6.9p2

 

On my UI elements i'm setting the canvas scaler to "scale with screen size" and scripting it to set the reference resolution to match the screen size. This is working nicely for me.

I also updated the UI to use a lot of "layout elements" with flexible widths and heights. which helps to keep scale.

Thanks

This is the first post I came across. I was also having the same issue (6s Plus and 6 Plus). My default scaling resolution was 1080p. Read this:

After making the change to the correct resolution of 2208x1242, it instantly fixed my problem (although I had to upscale some of my UI).
