How can I get full-resolution screenshots when the Simulator's "Pixel Accurate" option is disabled?
The original answer is wrong!
Russ from the Apple Simulator team says:
To take app store screenshots uncheck the "Optimize rendering for Window Scale" option in the Debug menu. I recommend turning this back on normally as it improves rendering performance. Double-clicking does not make the device use native resolution, that's just an accident due to the size of device you tested with and the size of your screen.

ORIGINAL ANSWER (DOES NOT WORK RELIABLY):
Make sure Window -> Show Device Bezels is unchecked.
Double click the simulator's toolbar (the top bar listing the device and OS).
Note - sometimes, double-clicking the toolbar will just minimize the window to the dock. Alternately, simply click OSX menubar Window->Zoom.
Hello happy days, the simulator resizes and provides the right resolution for App Store screenshots.
You could set the simulator to landscape mode by clicking ⌘
+ →
first, then you could click ⌘
+ 2
to select Pixel Accurate
option, don't forget set simulator to portrait mode by clicking ⌘
+ ←

As of Xcode 12 we always enable all of the options.
In previous releases they were not enabled unless your screen was large enough to display the device at the full resolution without running off the edges.
