Should I make HD version for RSS reader type of apps?

Hi,

I learnt that Corona SDK can scale the screen automatically. For example, I can position things for 360x480 and it will automatically scale for any physical screens with different resolutions.

However, it seems working better for game apps? I mean, if I want to make a RSS reader, if I use the same method, for larger screens, like a iPad Retina, does this method take advantage of the larger screen? As for as I can understand, all fonts are scaled up, so even the user uses a device with a larger screen, “the content” (e.g. number of posts, number of texts) is still the same as iPhone?

Should I make a HD version if the app is a RSS reader? Or Do I misunderstand something? Any technique? Please help. Thanks.

Bests,

Joe

if you want better graphics for higher res. screens then yes. if graphics doesnt matter and config is setup correct then no

#3

I don’t want better graphics.

I want to have more posts/texts shown in larger screens. Do I need to make HD version for this reason?

#4

not really, just detect screen size and adjust objects and text size for better fit.
