Google hasn t had much of an interest in Android tablets since the days of the Motorola XOOM and Android Honeycomb. As a result, most of the company s apps aren t designed with tablets in mind, and third-party applications have largely followed suit. Sure, Android tablets can technically run all Android apps, but many of them have stretched-out layouts that were intended for 6-inch screens. Some even force a portrait orientation (Google Tasks, I m looking at you).
It can be hard to find applications with well-designed tablet interfaces, especially when the Play Store s only criteria for the Designed for tablets label is developers adding a large screenshot to the app listing. The only way to find out if an app is actually designed with tablets in mind is to try it out yourself, so that s exactly what we did for this roundup.
