Nov 28, 2013 2:50 AM in response to Amyy53by Alancito,Amy ~ In addition to the iPad wallpaper dimensions given at the link above, here are the optimal iPhone wallpaper dimensions:
"The iPad crops are at a resolution of 2524x2524px and the iPhone versions are 744x1392px. These were chosen based upon standards Apple has in place with their own built in wallpaper imagery. After a thorough amount of testing these resolutions worked the best and provided me with the most accurate results in my cropping choices." (Source)
