Hi I notice that some apps cant be found on the Tablet Market

[knighthonor]

Hi I was trying to download Order and Chaos and NOVA2 for my brand new Toshiba tablet. But it say the app cant be found, when I click the install button. Why cant Tablets play these games?

[cupfulloflol]

Some apps, especially games, only properly run on certain setups. Maybe it doesn't run properly on the resolution of the Toshiba, maybe it is something else hardware related, or maybe there is something else entirely....

Maybe try and get in touch with them somehow, perhaps they are working on an update to get more devices compatible with it?

[knighthonor]

ahh, dag. Maybe I should have waited before getting a tablet. I didnt know it was like that.

[takeshi]

It's like that with all Android devices (not just tablets). If your device doesn't meet the app's requirements then you won't see the app in the Market for the device.

hey is this also a issue for the IOS Tablets? or is this a android only issue?

[czerdrill]

android only

[nikecar]

android only

No. There are apps that are only for the iPad and not the iPhone, so I'm sure there are some iPhone only apps.

Same thing that some apps are ios and not Android and vice versa

he asked about ios tablets, also known as ipads. so again, android only.

How does IOS handle this issue? Is it possible for Android to also use this same tactic?
I am thinking about taking my tablet back sadly. nothing I can do on it.

Same os versions across devices and one oem so mostly everything is compatible across the devices. With android there are multiple hardware and software differences between devices that causes app incompatibility issues.
