I want to publish my app on Google Play but when I upload my .apk file, it shows that it is supported by 0 devices. I know that there is already a few topics about this but I have not find solution in any of them. Below I am attaching source-code of my android manifest. I also would like to mention that I am using LibGDX for this application and it is an Android Live Wallpaper. Also everything works fine on test devices and emulator. Thanks for your answers.

<activity

I finally found where the problem was. It was a typo android:software.live_wallpaper, it should be android.software.live_wallpaper. Now it shows over 9 000 supported devices.

I've just publish my app to the Google Play store for beta testing, but I can't install it on my Android tablet. The app will not install on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10 tablet Model number GT-P5113 Android version 4.2.2, but it installs on my Samsung S5 mobile phone with no problem.
When I try to install the app from the Google Play Store it says that its designed for phones and the message is "Your device isn't compatible with this version'. I've checked the 'DEVICE COMPATIBILITY' section and my tablet version is checked.
I have this in my AndroidManifest.xml file:
<supports-screens android:anyDensity="true" android:largeScreens="true"
android:normalScreens="true" android:resizeable="true"
android:smallScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" />
Can someone tell me how to make my app compatible with Android and iOS tablets? Thanks in advance
UPDATE
Here's the complete AndroidManifest.xml.

It is probably your min-sdk attribute. If it is set to 21 (android 5.0), then it will only work on devices with Android v5.0. Your min-sdk needs to be set to API level 17. It could also be an issue with compatibility libraries (if you used widgets only available in later versions of android) and/or themes. This page has more information about the tag, and a little bit about Google Play Filtering.
It's the camera auto focus feature:
uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus"
I have the same issue with Samsung SM-T110 (Tab 3 Lite);
it does not have camera autofocus so gets excluded from compatible devices.
Still trying to figure out how to remove this from the auto-generated manifest file tho, but hope this sets you in the right direction...
When viewing my app in Google Play on my ASUS Transformer tablet I see the following message
Your device isn't compatible with this version
Here is my manifest file.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Is there anything in my manifest that would cause this device to be incompatible?
OK I got it! My situation:
Originally a phone only app
re-designed for tablet optimization
I thought marking this permission to required="false" was all I needed since tablets don't have phones. <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"
**android:required="false"** />
My confusion was the <uses-permission/> and <uses-feature/> after reading this over for the 10th time I finally caught it. http://developer.android.com/distribute/googleplay/quality/tablet.html#hardware-requirements
I needed to explicitly add <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.telephony" android:required="false" /> to my manifest.
upload to to developer console and you should see the number of "supported devices" jump, 541 devices in my case.
Of course if you have features that require phone use you need to handle it appropriately at run-time for devices that don't have phone.
Adding <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.telephony" android:required="false" /> to the manifest added support for your AsusTransformer TF101G too!
I hope this helps someone else!
I developed a webview based android app , tested it - worked fine , uploaded to Google Play , and when I go to see the app I get This app is incompatible with all of your devices - I had wildfire and now I have Media Pad 7 inch tablet.
This is my manifest file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

It seams that the problem is in fact that in my country Serbia , payed apps can be bought only by using some phones that have installed new versions of Google Play app . This seems to be the problem since other users abroad using same types of phones are allowed to use the app.
I have published an application on Google Play. All is ok when I install on my Galaxy S3 or any other phone. But when I want to install this app on my Nexus 7, I can't find it on Google Play.
Here is my manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="XX.XX.XX"
android:versionCode="3"
android:versionName="1.1" >

android:smallScreens="true"
android:anyDensity="true"
android:xlargeScreens="true"
android:normalScreens="true"/>
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="13"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" android:required="false"></uses-permission>
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"

<activity android:name="splash"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar"
android:name="XX.XX.XX.MainActivity">
</activity>
<activity android:name="vocation" android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light"></activity>
<activity android:name="XX" android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light"></activity>
<activity android:name="XX" android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light"></activity>
<activity android:name="XXX" android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Light"></activity>
</application>
Anyone have an idea ?
Thanks a lot
update the uses-permission line:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"></uses-permission>
add uses-feature:
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.telephony" android:required="false" />
My guess is that the following permission prevents if from being available for the Nexus 7:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" android:required="false"></uses-permission>
The Nexus 7 doesn't have phone capabilities and so it won't be supported. The android:required attribute isn't needed by the way and doesn't do anything (it's ignored by Android).
you must use compatible-screens tag and not supports-screens
Ok so I have my android manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="" android:versionCode="6" android:versionName="1.2.3">
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7"/>
<application android:label="" android:icon="#drawable/icon" android:debuggable="true">
<activity android:name="com.google.ads.AdActivity" android:screenOrientation="landscape" android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_INPUT_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SET_ORIENTATION"/>
</manifest>
Where do I put in this:
<supports-screens android:smallScreens="false" android:normalScreens="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" />
and is this the correct syntax to not show the application to people with fail phones on the market? I just want to show my app to people with a decent dpi screen as i guess it helps determine how fast their processor is, how much ram they might have etc.
Cheers guys!
I think it places on Just before "application" tag
It must be a manifest child.

see the supportScreens section.
