ipa file was produced by third-party application (not xcode).
I have real devices available to make 4/3.5 inch screenshots for iPhone and 9.7 inch screenshots for iPad.
But the essential screenshots on iTune Connect are 5.5 inch display iPhone and 12.9 inch display iPad (and I don’t have the real devices for that).
If I photoshop screenshot for 5.5 inch and 12.9 inch according to its requiremnt as mentioned here: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/iTunesConnect_Guide/Chapters/Properties.html
For 5.5 inch iPhone:
- 72 dpi, RGB, flattened, no transparency
- High-quality JPEG or PNG image file format
- 1242 x 2208 pixels for hi-res portrait
- 2208 x 1242 pixels for hi-res landscape
For 12.7 inch iPad:
- 72 dpi, RGB, flattened, no transparency
- High-quality JPEG or PNG image file format
- 2048 x 2732 pixels for hi-res portrait
- 2732 x 2048 pixels for hi-res landscape
Will "Submit App Review" be ok? I mean whether somebody inside check the screenshot and make approval or not? Will they approve for app publishing? Or will they contact to make real-devices/stimulators screenshot?

As long as the image meets the dimensions required, it doesn’t matter how the image was produced. You will see numerous images on the store that aren’t actual screenshots; ie. they have additional text or information
Yes, You can submit your screenshot and submit your app for review.
It is not compulsory to create screenshot from actual device. You can photoshop too.
The must follow criteria is The image size(Dimension).
You can submit photoshop edited screenshot for this, you can create a screenshot using the Apple guidelines.
P.S. Please make sure that screenshot must be relevant to your app. Otherwise, the application could be got rejected.
