Question

Export for iPhone & iPad same time - Without resolution issues?

Hello,

I have developed an app for the iPhone and it runs perfectly fine on the iOS for iPhone. I am trying to port it to the iPad so I have done the proper stage adjustments and have set export as "iPhone & iPad"

It opens up fine on my iPad, but the same app opens distorted on my iPhone (since the stage resolution isn't native, so it gets squished)

How can I make my app iPhone/iPad friendly all in one IPA?

Thanks.

One way of doing it is on the first page have the script figure out the device resolution and then progress the timeline to the appropriate frame/scene, set up for iPhone or iPad this way everything will be sized properly. The bad part is that you will have to make changes in two places everytime you update your app.

That's a bit of a pain. What i'm doing now is that i'll make the app run perfectly on the iPhone, and "friendly" on the iPad (the graphics woun't be as sharp, but still playable) and develop a seperate HD app for the iPad which is specially designed for it.

Thats the ultimate solution, put out two apps for two different devices, might help your download count if someone gets it for iPad and loves it so much they want to get it for the iPhone too!!
