copied!<p>While checking orientation please take note of these points from apple document - </p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Provide Launch Images :</strong></p> <p><em>iPhone-only applications</em> may only have one launch image. It should be in PNG format and measure 320 x 480 pixels. Name your launch image file Default.png.</p> <p><em>iPad-only applications:</em> Create a launch image for each supported orientation in the PNG format. Each launch image must be 1024 x 748 pixels (for landscape) or 768 x 1004 pixels (for portrait).</p> <p><em>Universal applications:</em> Include launch images for both iPhone and iPad.</p> <p><strong>Update Your Info.plist Settings</strong> Specify values for the UISupportedInterfaceOrientations and UIInterfaceOrientation</p> </blockquote> <p>and </p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Not all browsers recognize the cover keyword for background-size</strong>, and as a result, simply ignore it.</p> </blockquote> <p>So we can overcome that limitation by <em>setting the background-size to 100% width or height, depending on the orientation</em>. We can target the current orientation (as well as the iOS device, using device-width). With these two points I think you can use CSS <code>background-size:cover</code> on iOS in portrait-mode </p> <p>Here are some other resources I also came across while looking for a solution: <a href="http://kimili.com/journal/flexible-scalable-background-image" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Flexible scalable background images</a>, <a href="http://beingwicked.com/development/full-scalable-background-images/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">full scalable background images</a>, <a href="http://css-tricks.com/perfect-full-page-background-image/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">perfect scalable background images</a>, and <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/background-image-problems-on-resize-iphoneipad" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> discussion.</p>
