Three tiers of large screen quality on Google Play
summary
Android Play now classifies large screen quality into three concrete tiers: over a quarter billion large screen Android devices means impact is real. Tier 3 requires full‑screen, fully usable apps with persisted state across window size changes and robust keyboard, mouse, and trackpad input handling. Tier 2 demands optimized layouts, updated navigation, and common keyboard shortcuts rather than blown‑up phone UIs, with Material Canonical Layouts as guidance. Tier 1 unlocks differentiated experiences like tabletop support on foldables by using Jetpack WindowManager FoldingFeature and examples in the Large Screen Gallery.
