How to design for Android?

Question

Android

No matter who I ask and where I read, everyone has different approaches.

What screen resolutions need to be drawn to use in Android applications?

640x720 - basic, the rest can, in principle, be stretched by 9patch or reduced. But to make it look good on all devices, it makes sense to draw additional permissions. How are you doing?

Thanks

Answer 1

It is necessary to draw for three screen densities. Standard scheme - drawn for MDPI devices, then adapted for HDPI and LDPI. But to be attached to pixels is not worth it at all. It is necessary to work as with a web page. Clarify the question - maybe we are talking about some kind of analogue of a splash page? As an option, you can make the background monophonic or suitable for stretching and place the necessary components (icons, text) on it separately. But first, it's good to think about how much this splash is needed.
Also keep in mind that screens can be with other aspect ratios (when the width is greater than the height, for example). In this case, the application "locked" only in portrait mode will "lie" on its side.
