iPad and iPhone?

Hi,

Is it possible to publish an app just for iPad? I would like to fine tune the artwork and avoid any blurriness issues that are happening with RI builds. It also works much better at iPad aspect ratio?

I know that if you publish an iPhone app it is expected to work on an iPad but am not sure if it is the same the other way round?

Many thanks.

    You can't publish an iPhone app if it doesn't work for iPad? If this is true it's news no me. I highly doubt it though.

    You can make a app for just iPad.

    Now that I think of it, having a universal build would require you to have a iPhone and iPad version. But just an iPad build would require just an iPad build.

    Hi thanks for the response @RabidParrot .

    I saw the option to build just for iPad within the publisher but just wondered if Apple would accept it built just for iPad?

    This is the thread that made me question: http://forums.gamesalad.com/discussion/75278/2-10-iphone-apps-must-also-run-on-ipad-without-modification-at-iphone-resolution-and-at-2x-iphone#latest

    Sorry, it's my first time publishing for iOS and I want to get it right :)

    Hi @jamie_c Sorry, I must have been writing my last post exactly the same time you were so I didn't see it :) That's all I needed to know thank you...I know now that I can just make it perfect for the iPad and all will be good.

    Cheers :wink:

    2.10 iPhone Apps must also run on iPad without modification, at iPhone resolution, and at 2X iPhone 3GS resolution
