Design difference on Android tablet and phone

I am testing the app which I am currently working on. I have tested it on android 10" tablet and a 4" device. There are many design changes which I encountered.

I have used a master details concept of menu system, on 4" phone the menu is always closed and have put a menu icon to expand it, but on larger screen device(10") the menu bar is always open by default.

enter image description here Secondly on a 10" tab the form is center aligned and has slight gap to left and right while on 4" it looks great without any margin.

How do I fix these issues?

You can control the master / detail behavior using the MasterBehavior property. Though, how it is currently set up sounds like good default behavior to me, and is likely intended.

I would guess that the padding is similar: one for a larger screen, one for smaller. You can control this by checking and changing the values at runtime. Xamarin.Forms.Device.Idiom property would likely be of use. Detecting the screen size might also be helpful.
