Android app is not “designed for tablets” due to drawings

Question

Google Play states that my application is not designed for tablets: "Your drawables must be included in your APK for the overall tablet screen density." He refers to 4. Use resources dedicated to tablet screens on the tablet app quality page. I am trying to understand how I disagree with section 4, and I would appreciate understanding.

• Is section 4 on tablets even accurate for Action Bar icon sizes? 32dp seems to be the given size (32x32px in mdpi), but it conflicts with the size specification of the target touch material , which indicates 24dp, I am using 24dp assets from Google material-design-icons for my action bar (toolbar), and There is no such thing as 32dp Android icon in the package.

• I have included in your project drawable-xhdpi, drawable-xxhdpiand drawable-xxxhdpiPNG resources, but I did not include the assets drawable-hdpi. Could this be the reason why I am not "designed for tablets?" The documentation states that all drawings must be "optimized for at least one" of hdpi, xhdpi, xxhdpi or xxxhdpi, and I did this for at least one.

• My icon sizes in launchers are correct and include mdpi versions - xxxhdpi ( mipmap-mdpi, mipmap-hdpietc.).

Answer 1

For those struggling with this, I introduced “Tablet Design,” which you can use to tell Google why you think the App is for tablets (although it’s not labeled as such). Google looked at my message and agreed, and the app is now marked as intended for tablets.

Before submitting a form, you must ensure that your application first encounters a Tablet Quality Checklist .
