"The dimensions of one or more screenshots are wrong"
App Store Connect checks the pixel size against an exact list, so a file that is a few pixels off is refused with that message and no further detail. For iPhone 5.5-inch the accepted sizes are 1242 × 2208, and Apple also lists the landscape pairs of each.
The usual cause is a file exported for another class — a 6.5-inch capture uploaded into the 6.9-inch slot — or a tool that resized to something close but not exact. Re-export at one of the sizes above; nothing else clears it, because App Store Connect does not resize for you.

The rules that apply here
Only the largest display of each family is required
Apple asks for a 6.9-inch or 6.5-inch iPhone set and, for apps that run on iPad, a 13-inch set. Every smaller class is scaled from those unless you upload it.
The canonical targets are 1320 x 2868 and 2064 x 2752; the older 1290 x 2796 and 2048 x 2732 remain available and are still accepted.
Alpha channels are rejected
Screenshots cannot contain transparency, and a PNG carrying an alpha channel is refused even when every pixel is opaque.
Exports default to JPEG, and PNG output is re-encoded as 24-bit truecolor. Every file is inspected after encoding.
iPhone Duo has its own two screenshot sizes
The iPhone section now opens with iPhone Duo: 1398 x 2034 for the outer display and 2007 x 2853 for the inner one. Neither is close enough to the 6.9-inch ratio to be scaled from it.
Both sizes are available as targets and are optional: Apple has not published whether the class is required. Nothing in the studio asks for them until you pick them.
You do not have to keep this page open.
Design one set and Easy App Screens renders it at this size and at every other one your listing takes, in each of your languages, then re-reads each file and checks it against exactly these numbers before it lets you download.
