Xcode – Multiple storyboard files with scene delegate iOS 13

I’ve just implemented SceneDelegate to my old iOS project which has two storyboards – iPhone.storyboard and iPad.storyboard.
There are both AppDelegate.swift and SceneDelegate.swift files without specific codes – just empty delegate methods.

info.plist file

The problem is that I have to change the storyboard name whenever I run with different device types – iPhone or iPad. My questions is how I can set multiple storyboard names to Application Scene Manifest section of info.plist file. It obviously runs with iPad.Storyboard file when I run with iPhone simulator for now.

P.S. I’ve already set Main storyboard file base name and Main storyboard file base name (iPad) values with iPhone and iPad.

    The only variant that I found for now is this where setting different storyboards are done in SceneDelegate. Not at the info.plist.

    I had this problem, what you need to do is add a new scene configuration in the info.plist. I used the default one to load a storyboard for iPhones, and added a new configuration to load my iPad storyboard.

    enter image description here

    Change ‘Enable Multiple Windows’ to ‘YES’

    Then in the AppDelegate.swift –

    func application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) -> UISceneConfiguration {
    // Called when a new scene session is being created.
    // Use this method to select a configuration to create the new scene with.
    
    var config = "Default Configuration"
    
    if IS_IPAD {
        print("IPAD - LOADING IPAD CONFIG - (config)")
        config = "ipad Configuration"
    }
    print("LOADING CONFIG - (config)")
    
    return UISceneConfiguration(name: config, sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role)
}

    This solved it for me, I hope this helps people.
