Question

How can I preview a device in landscape mode in SwiftUI?

I just have a simple preview like this:

struct ContentView_Previews : PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ContentView()
    }
}

Answer 1

Xcode 13

Now you can preview in landscape mode with .previewInterfaceOrientation modifier to make it landscapeLeft or landscapeRight.

_{?? The following image from WWDC21 uses horizontal and vertical that is NOT available in Xcode 13 beta!}

Old but not Useless method:

You can set the size to any landscape size you want for PreviewProvider:

struct ContentView_Previews : PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ContentView()
           .previewLayout(.fixed(width: 1024, height: 768))
           // iPad Mini landscape size
    }
}

This is iPad Mini landscape mode size.

Update: Xcode detects the device associated to the preview from the selected simulator at the top left of the IDE and it and will apply the safe area as you expected for some iPads and iPhones landscape mode.

?? Master-Detail Demo

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            Text("Master")
            Text("Detail")
        }
    }
}

Also, you can play with these two modifiers as your needs:

    .environment(.horizontalSizeClass, .regular)
    .environment(.verticalSizeClass, .compact)
