What will [[UIDevice currentDevice] model] return for "iPad"?

---

I tried using containsString but it was not allowed with xcode4

Here is how I solved it:

if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] model] hasPrefix:@"iPhone"])
    {

Hope this helps even if its a bit late.

You can use UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM(), which will either return UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone or UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad. Bear in mind that on any device < 3.2, this is unavailable, so first check to see whether the property can be retrieved - in this case, it is not an iPad.

Or, alternatively, to specifically work out whether the platform is an iPad or not, use

if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] model] containsString:@"iPad"]) {
    // Your code goes here
}

Hope this helps ;)

Well trying on simulator:

NSLog(@"%@",[[UIDevice currentDevice] model]);

it gives iPad Simulator, will update the answer when I will get the device ;)
