Differentiate applications optimized for Android tablets close to happening on Google Play

Yes, friends, the horror of not knowing if an application is optimized for your Android tablet It could be close to being over. Google really wants to make it easy for developers so they can duly inform users of optimization to different formats of your applications and games. That is why he has put out a guide to be able to include images that show how the applications look in those formats for his application store.

This is not the first attempt by Mountain Viewers to streamline descriptions in this regard in their app store, as well as to encourage developers to enable their apps to run on tablets. A few months ago, they provided design guidelines that they should get results and it is true that something has been noticed. In this report it was encouraged to notify users in the description text of this optimization.

However, on this occasion we speak with more emphasis of the notification on Google Play. They have created categories to upload images of the application running on 7-inch and 10-inch tablets in addition to those we already knew for mobile phones.

Play Store optimized for tablets

The Google Play Developer Console is already adapted so that the images begin to arrive and those of Mountain View warn that functions will soon be generated in the store so that users can easier to find apps optimized for tablets.

Honestly, this is a step more than desired. Finding apps that look good on tablets is a horror on Android, it is a real lottery in many cases. There are services that help us locate them as Tablified Market HD, which is very useful although with certain limitations and then the poor menu that we find in the Play Store application on Android.

Hopefully this process speeds up and the developers cheer up.
