Posted by Ellie Powers, Google Play tm

More and more, developers are investing in a full tablet experience for their apps and seeing those investments pay off big. Starting today, it’s even sier to show off those tablet apps to users and to understand what it takes to make a grt tablet app.

Many of you have alrdy made optimizations to your apps to make them more butiful and useful on tablets, and we’re giving you a way to showcase your appliion’s specialized tablet layouts. You’re now able to upload screenshots of your app running on 7” and 10” tablets to the Google Play Developer Console, and those screenshots are shown preferentially in Google Play to users on those devices.

In October, we published the tablet app quality checklist, which shares best practices for crting tablet appliions that users will love. We've updated this checklist with additional tips and guidelines, as well as more details on specific technical checks you should perform to ensure your app is correctly optimized for tablets. Soon, we’ll start surfacing tips based on our tablet app quality guidelines directly in the Google Play Developer Console, and we’ll use these guidelines to help users better discover tablet apps in Google Play.

So upload your tablet screenshots and confirm your app follows the quality guidelines today.
