Question

I am developing an iOS app for the iphone 5 (4-inch screen). It looks fine on the 4-inch retina display but when i run it on a 3.5-inch retina display, the screen appears distorted.

Your suggestions will be appreciated.

Use Autolayouts to manage it for 3.5 and 4 inches screen

It depends for which iOS version you are developing your app. If you are developing for iOS 6 then you can use Autolayouts. And if you are developing your app for lower versions the you can use AutoResizing feature.

Hope it helps you.

You need to make condition for in code to use it in iPhone 4 & iPhone 4S. and some place you can use auto layout of UI Components.

I prefer you to use different xib files for 4-inch and 3.5-inch screen.
