Apps compatibility on Nexus 10
So a few months ago I bought my Google Nexus 10, and since then I tried out quite many apps. There are lots of apps to the Android platform which can be run on the Nexus 10, but not all are visually compatible.
Here are some examples of apps that are compatible, and some that are not.
Compatible apps:
Browser
Unfortunatly Google decided to move away from the AOSP browser on to the Chrome browser as the default, but it’s available to download on the internet.
Calendar
Month view
Calendar works really well on the large screen.
As seen on the left are the week numbers.
For each event you see the event name, time and which calendar the event belongs to.
Week view
Calendar in week mode is my preferred view.
Contacts
Landscape
Contacts looks much nicer in landscape.
Portrait
The People apps or the Contacts app as it used to be called earlier, wokes in portrait but is designed for landskape on tablets.
Skype
The Skype application uses a Landscape mode, optimized for tablets, the same .apk file has the portrait mode for handsets.
Android Market / Google Play Store
Portrait
Google Play store is designed to be used in portrait mode.
Landscape
Google Play Store works really well in Landscape as well.
