I have an application in the market that I want only Nexus S-users to be able to download. How can I do this?

There is a "Supported Devices" in the publishing process, but I dont want to exclude devices 700times.

Can I in the manifest support only the Nexus S?

I'm not sure why you would want to exclude all other devices instead of the filtering by features of the device, but I'd suggest following the directions for Market Filters in the Android Developer Documentation that is provided by Google. I'd suggest using the Nexus S specs as the minimum specs and go from there.

EDIT: Google recently released a Device Availability Dialog in the Developer Console that allows you to understand which devices can run your application, as well as allowing you to filter out devices that you don't want to run your application.

  • It is a buissniss application, and all the clients are bought by me, and they are nexus S devices. – DagW Oct 03 '11 at 15:47
  • There is no way to limit to say or something? – DagW Oct 03 '11 at 15:47
  • There doesn't appear to be anything like that at this point. However, there is a feature request very similar to your request on the Official Android Market forum here: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=6ec25d7820b978d2&hl=en EDIT: I think I found something that was recently released that will help you out.

  • If all the clients are bought in by you what about side loading the application? – Cullan Mar 28 '13 at 17:08
  • If you want the application to be private, consider a Google Play Private Channel. http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2494992 – Zoot Mar 28 '13 at 20:34

Try this in your manifest:

 <supports-screens 
 android:smallScreens="true"
 android:normalScreens="true"
 android:largeScreens="true"
 android:xlargeScreens="true"
 android:anyDensity="true" />

good luck
