Hi LSF! I hope to release something made with Renpy on the Android phone, but I don't know which resolution I should use as there are so many different Android resolutions out there. We're expecting the app to go up either June/July next year (2014) if everything goes well. As far as I know, Ren'py requires the screen size to be set under options. After some googling, I found a source that lists out Android device popularity, but, I don't know if that spread accurately captures the VN demographic as well.
If it's all right, could you please tell me what phones/devices you own and their screen resolutions, or suggest a resolution I should use? Do feel free to contribute even if you're an iOS user; iOS-Android usage comparisons are equally valuable to me.
Apologies if this thread is inappropriate -- I believe the forum rules states that polls are not allowed, but I don't know where else to go/ask -- or if a relevant thread already exists and I missed it. As far as I know, all the threads about screen resolutions are for the PC and not for mobile devices.
Thank you very much in advance!

The #renpy IRC channel is a great place to chat with other devs. Due to the nature of IRC and timezone differences, people probably won't reply right away.
