the app meets the basic expectations of tablet users through compelling features

and an intuitive, well-designed UI. </p>

<p>Tablets are a growing part of the Android installed base that offers new

opportunities for <a

<h2 id="use-tablet-icons">4. Use Icons and other assets that are designed

for tablet screens</h2>

<p>So that your app looks its best, make sure to use icons and other bitmap

assets that are created specifically for the densities used by tablet screens.

Specifically, you should create sets of alternative bitmap drawables for each

density in the range commonly supported by tablets.</p>

<p>To ensure your app looks its best, provide icons and other bitmap

assets for each density in the range commonly supported by tablets. Specifically, you should

design your icons for the action bar, notifications, and launcher according to the

<a href="{@docRoot}design/style/iconography.html">Iconography</a> guidelines and

provide them in multiple densities, so they appear at the appropriate size on all screens

without blurring or other scaling artifacts.</p>

<p>Other points to consider: </p>

<p>Your app should supply a version of each icon and bitmap asset that's optimized

for <strong>at least one</strong> the following common tablet screen densities:</p>

<ul>

<li>Icons in the action bar, notifications, and launcher should be designed

according to the icon design guidelines and have the same physical size on

tablets as on phones.</li>

<li>Use density-specific <a

href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/resources/providing-resources.html#AlternativeResources">

resource qualifiers</a> to ensure that the proper set of alternative resources

gets loaded.</li>

  <li><code>hdpi</code></li>

  <li><code>xhdpi</code></li>

  <li><code>xxhdpi</code></li>

</ul>

<p style="margin-bottom:.5em;">At a minimum, your app should supply sets of

  custom drawables and assets for common tablet screen densities,

  tagged with these qualifiers as appropriate:</p>

<p>Other tips:</p>

<ul>

  <li><code>hdpi</code>, OR</li>

  <li><code>xhdpi</code>, OR</li>

  <li><code>xxhdpi</code></li>

<li>When possible, use vector shapes for your icon designs so you can scale them

without loss of detail and edge crispness.</li>

<li>Use density-specific <a

href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/resources/providing-resources.html#AlternativeResources">

resource qualifiers</a> to ensure that the proper icons are loaded for each screen density.</li>

<li>Tablets and other large screen devices often request a launcher icon that is one density

size larger than the device's actual density, so you should provide your launcher

icon at the highest density possible. For example, if a tablet has an {@code xhdpi} screen,

it will request the {@code xxhdpi} version of the launcher icon.</li>
