When will you release a native spotify app for android tablets, like the app for iPad?

There's no ETA, but have a look in the Idea Exchange for ideas you can add your kudos to 🙂

So all the Android tablet users are just supposed to sit around with their thumbs up their bum?

No ETA on an Android tablet app is basicly unacceptable. You are aware that there are users using Android tablets as well?

Do you guys monitor the different platforms and hardware that use your services? Is the decision to not develop a native tablet app based in these numbers?

If that's the case could you release these numbers?

Well an analysis of the mobile phone market by analyst firm International Data Corporation's (IDC) shows Android the "clear leader" in the smartphone mobile operating system race with 68.3% of the market in 2012. The iPhone is a distant second at 18.8% with all other operating systems below 5%.

If those Android users, without a tablet/iPad already, were to buy a iPad/tablet, all of them would of course by a iPad. No one could possibly believe that any of them would want an Android. Thus: No reason to support tablets!
