Hi

Im developing an app that will show a number of records from airtabel in different arrays of buttons.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/7/5/7572346dd5c0393b3ea526412bb039d350700230.png)

Ive seen that using landscape+tablet i would be able to show all buttons in the same screen

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/8/e/8e768e4ff4d4856bc6d3b4fb94297017a5b8f59f.png)

Can we have different screen layouts in the same app? Screen1 : Portrait+Phone, Screen2: Landscape+tablet … so i can check the device and redirect to a screen or another based on this?

Thanks!!

Hi @ioannis

during design time we can’t have screens with different layouts so not sure how the app will behave when publishing with a specific layout

I’ll test tomorrow and send feedback

Thanks!

Hello @fedegarcia30hzc97a 👋  
Thank you for the explanation.  
I now understand the issue there.  
So, my suggestion would be to have two screens as you said, and based on the device size to navigate to the correct screen.
