I have uploaded an App to GooglePlay which is INCOMPATIBLE with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3.0 7-inch, however, it is COMPATIBLE and functional on a Samsung Galaxy smartphone.
Is there a screen issue that I needs to be accounted for in the app coding for the larger screens so that my app can be used on those devices?
Also, I have turned off all of the android permissions except camera (my App is for QR scanning).
Any idea
Hi Christopher,
What do you mean by incompatible? Can you explain it in more details?
It will not let me load the app. It specifically says: "This app is incompatible with your device" right under the install icon.
It looks like I am supposed to set the Target SDK to 11 or higher (14 or higher is recommended). Should I just set the Min and Target SDK versions to 4.0 to achieve this?

Also, I need screen support specified apparently. Can I specify this in Appery?

About Target SDK -- Yes, you are right.
About screen support - I need to check it additionally.
I put the Target SDK at 4.0, and uploaded the APK. The tablet is still incompatible. I am guessing I will need to specify screen support.
Please let me know when you find out how to specify screen support as outlined in the link of my previous post.
Also I just read this on a forum
To qualify for "Designed for Tablets", an application needs to include 7in and 10in screenshots, support the minimum Android version supported by Tablets (i.e. Android 3.0) and add
code
<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true"/>
/code
to the AndroidManifest.xml file if targetting Android 3.x.
Thoughts? How do I get that code in the AndroidManifest.xml file??

The AndroidManifest.xml is situated in SourceANDROIDYour_Project_Name
Maybe you used options that a tablet don't support. This issue happened for me too. Check the options. My app have only those options checked:
ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
INTERNET
With this, your app will run in any device.
