              <string>Portrait</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageSize</key>
              <string>{320, 480}</string>
          </dict>
          <dict>
              <key>UILaunchImageMinimumOSVersion</key>
              <string>8.0</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageName</key>
              <string>Default-568h</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageOrientation</key>
              <string>Portrait</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageSize</key>
              <string>{320, 568}</string>

              <string>8.0</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageName</key>
              <string>Default-667h</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageOrientation</key>
              <string>Portrait</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageSize</key>
              <string>{375, 667}</string>
          </dict>
          <dict>
              <key>UILaunchImageMinimumOSVersion</key>
              <string>8.0</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageName</key>
              <string>Default-736h</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageOrientation</key>
              <string>Portrait</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageSize</key>
              <string>{414, 736}</string>
          </dict>
          <dict>
              <key>UILaunchImageMinimumOSVersion</key>
              <string>8.0</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageName</key>
              <string>Default-736h-Landscape</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageOrientation</key>
              <string>Landscape</string>
              <key>UILaunchImageSize</key>
              <string>{414, 736}</string>
          </dict>
      </array>
  3. Add high resolution images for iPhone 6 / 6+ to application
  resources. The images should be named exactly as specified by
  UILaunchImageName in each dictionary entry. If you copy the
  dictionaries above, you should replace the "Default" name with
  the actual name of your images.
  4. Note, the entries for low resolution images for iPhone 3/4/5
  must also be present.
  5. The standard modifiers like @2x?iphone can be applied to
  images for iPhone 3/4/5 only.
  
  For example:
  
  Default-667h.png - image for iPhone 6
  Default-736h.png - image for iPhone 6 Plus.
  Default-736h-Landscape.png for iPhone 6 Plus in landscape
  orientation
