Cannot install Boots app

Nexus 7
Samsung Galaxy S tablet 10.5 inch
Both Android

I have tried to install on the via play on the tablets and using the Google play website on a computer the Boots (chemist) app on both of these but it will not install.
When I tried on the computer it flags up both of these tablets but says " no eligible devices for app install".
Anybody got an idea why

I wonder if this has something to do with it?

Quote:
“Device ID & call information

read phone status and identity”

From the app permissions.

I wonder if because you are trying to install on a tablet it can't establish a "phone" status/identity so bombs out?

Do you have an android phone you could try it on? See if it installs OK on that.

It says on the Now store it's incompatible with my tablet too.

Only the developer themselves will be able to tell you for absolute certain why they made the app incompatible with tablets. Maybe it relies on texts? Who knows.
