2017Android: most tablets with Android 5, 6 and 7, with a minimum of 1 GB memory and an ARM-processor. The performance of the app is strongly dependent on the hardware of the tablet. For ease of use we recommend a tablet of 9″ or larger.
iPad: all iPads with iOS 8 or higher are supported. This prevents Coach from running on the first generation iPad (2010) only. We recommend the use of an iPad with at least 1 GB of internal memory (all models since 2012). We do not recommend the use an iPad Mini due to the limited screen size.
In Coach 7 for tablet version 7.1 the layout screen is locked by default. To unlock it:
