Hi Sam,

What is your app dimension? What did you set as Min. SDK?

I apologize I should have gave you details.

My default page size is set to 320 x 480 (screen size should not matter)
I put 2.2.x as min. SDK

Hello,

You created "Mobile App" but for galaxy tab 2 (10.1) tablet you need to create "Tablet app":
http://docs.appery.io/documentation/p...

Another way is configure AndroidManifest.xml file and set supported screen resolutions.

app for tablet troubleshoot

Alright so after doing some troubleshooting I figured out that it was my android permissions that were restricting the number devices my app was compatible with.
It turns out the default Android Permissions that appery.io set are not default for tablets.

I removed all permissions since my app did not require any and the app was compatible with most all devices.
The issue now was that my app crashed after loading and I found out that I needed a minimum set of permissions in order for the app to work.

uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"

Hi Sam,

Does it work with the default permissions set?

No, as I stated in my previous response "It turns out the default Android Permissions that appery.io set are not default for tablets."
