# Why can’t HX Capture display the full resolution of my iPad or iPhone?

HX Capture can capture the full frame rate of the device that's sending video and up to 4K content, but it won't display the native resolution when viewed on an NDI receiver. This is due to an iOS limitation that sets the max resolution of either the X or Y axis to 1920, and scales the other axis accordingly. If the device can't scale equally to 1920 on either axis, iOS will automatically reduce the output resolution to a scale that is about 1:1 of it's original native resolution.&#x20;

For example, an iPad Pro 11th Gen has a native resolution of 2388x1668, however when displayed over NDI it will actually be 1280x960. The same will be true of capturing screen footage using iOS' built-in screen recorder function- the resolution will be reduced as both the broadcast feature and the screen recording feature use the same function in the background.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ndi.video/all/faq/common-issues/why-cant-hx-capture-display-the-full-resolution-of-my-ipad-or-iphone.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
