    I built my game for the screen size of an iPhone 5, when I test it on my phone, an iPhone XR, it looks all wonky. Do I have to build a separate version of my game for each phone type? How can I remedy this? Thanks in advance!

    Not sure if you are using BB3 or BB2 so I will just cover the basics here and see if it corrects your issue regardless of the version you are running.
    No, you do not need to create different versions for each device.

    First, what setting are you using in the Settings:Screen Adjustment field. Take a look there first. I recommend Auto or Default, play with these and test your game for different scenarios, iPad especially and any others you wish.
    Next, are your UI images/Labels/buttons, all of these things set with the checkbox Stick to Edge or not. This is another factor for UI elements that if not set correctly will cause strange behaviors.
    If you play with the things I just mentioned above it should fix your issues.
