How can I detect what device I am on?

Post by jnmediaGAd195 » Thu Apr 26, 2012 9:30 pm

Very basic question here. I am writing an app and would like it to run on both the iPhone and the iPad. How do I detect what device I am on? I am assuming that I need to size the screen, buttons, etc. based on the device. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi...

Read the iOS release notes... page 41 'Runtime environment querying' and page 35 of the Android release notes... Hardware and system version query support.

be well
