Is it possible to create an App for both Mobile and Tablet?

I understand when I create new project, I have few options among which, create for mobile and create for tablet. Now I am in the initial stages of creating an app I came across this issue. Can I create one app for both? Or I have to replicate everything I've done on mobile project to tablet project once again? If so, will the user's device automatically identify the suitable app (e.g. if the user is trying to download the app using a tablet, the tablet will directly take him to the tablet app, if the user is trying to download the app using a mobile, the mobile will directlly take him to the mob app). Or this can be done at the final stages manually?

You help is deeply appreciated.

Hi Hawk,

1) Tablet app has master-detail pages (a page with menu on the left and content on the right).

2) You can publish 2 apps to market and specify supported devices for each of them:

So can't I publish one app for moblie and app? I was thinking that if I add the script mentioned in the link you provided in manifest file, the app would scale for both mobile and tablet. Am I correct?

Hi Hawk,

Sure, you can install in on tablet. And it will not have master-detail pages.

Regarding the link to support-screens, where would I place that? I know it goes in AndroidManifest.xml, but how do I get there when using appery?

Hi Ed - Inside Source view in Android folder of your project, you can find this file.
