Your apps should be supported by devices with any screen size. This is set in the default manifest editor text.
The suggestions about resource files are not relevant in our case.
Hello,
I agree completely.
Unfortunately, it sounds like Google might start listing apps that don't conform to their "suggestions" as optimized for phones and not tablets.
I have tried to upload 7" and 10" screenshots of apps to get on their current "compatible with tablets lists", but Google tells me these apps have not been optimized for tablets and will not be listed on their special lists. They give me suggestions to make my apps compatible. The suggestions include the things I mentioned previously. These apps have been dynamically optimized using B4A features to display and work well on a tablet.
I am anxious to see what Google will actually do. Will they take all apps that don't include "optimized" icons in their resource directories and target SDK version 14 manifest entries and call them phone apps not good on tablets?
Maybe it just means placing copies of our app icon in each of the display-density-specific resource directories. The target SDK version is what is going to affect me. I rely on the menu button. If I set a target SDK version >= 11 the menu button disappears unless I have the heading enabled. The heading in this case shows the app icon wasting 15-20% of the upper screen area just to show the icon and menu button.
It will be interesting to see how Google plays this out.
Barry.
